ocfs2: Use buffer IO if we are appending a file.
In ocfs2_file_aio_write, we will prevent direct io if we find that we are appending(changing i_size) and call generic_file_aio_write_nolock. But actually O_DIRECT flag is there and this function will call generic_file_direct_write eventually which will update i_size and leave di->i_size alone. The bug is http://oss.oracle.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1173. So this patch let ocfs2_direct_IO returns 0 directly if we are appending so that buffered write will be called and di->i_size get updated successfully. And this is also what we want in ocfs2_file_aio_write. Signed-off-by: Tao Ma <tao.ma@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com>
