From ec5883abebb2e249ea8d318cb58fb4b2c269cf10 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Horst Hummel Date: Sun, 1 May 2005 08:58:59 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] s390: don't pad cdl blocks for write requests The first blocks on a cdl formatted dasd device are smaller than the blocksize of the device. Read requests are padded with a 'e5' pattern. Write requests should not pad the (user) buffer with 'e5' because a write request is not allowed to modify the buffer.
