Subject: [PATCH] posix_fallocate.3: fallocate may be interrupted
Date: Tue, 13 Oct 2015 18:00:50 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1444773650-3009-1-git-send-email-jeremie.galarneau@efficios.com> (raw)

The glibc implementation of posix_fallocate, which calls
fallocate(), may be interrupted. The fallocate() emulation
also makes use of pread()/pwrite(), which may also be
interrupted.
