Subject: [PATCH] FUSE: disable sendfile with direct_io
Date: Sun, 24 Apr 2005 17:50:40 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1DPjNY-0000PZ-00@localhost> (raw)

In case a filesystem is mounted with "direct_io", sendfile should not
use the generic function, but return an error instead.  The generic
sendfile uses the page cache, which could return stale data.
