From 82b45e0a0b824787bd79ce3f6453eaa2afddd138 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Max Reitz Date: Wed, 28 Feb 2018 14:13:14 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] block/file-posix: Fix fully preallocated truncate Storing the lseek() result in an int results in it overflowing when the file is at least 2 GB big. Then, we have a 50 % chance of the result being "negative" and thus thinking an error occurred when actually everything went just fine. So we should use the correct type for storing the result: off_t. Reported-by: Daniel P.
