https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D212139 --- Comment #4 from Peter Wemm <peter@FreeBSD.org> --- FWIW; the thought experiment patch is wrong - it does not implement what I thought it did. I still think it is probably the best option though. The root of the probl= em is the read-ahead and we cannot trust size reporting. The old code did not= do read-ahead. Preventing read-ahead from crossing the end of disk, or an alia= s of the end of disk should be more than sufficient to restore old behavior with= out adding new hard failure cases. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
