22.11.11 Reading/writing for any size works, [[this|http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-hurd/2011-11/msg00127.html]] works, but fsx test fails ([[see|http://www.bddebian.com:8888/~hurd-web/user/Maksym_Planeta/#fsx_fail2211]]).
+24.11.11 The problem with fsx.
+
+Here are follow operations:
+
+1. Write some data at address 0x100 with size 0x20
+2. Truncate file to size 0x80. First written data should be lost.
+3. Write some data at address 0x200 size of 0x20. By this operation file size is increased up to 0x220.
+4. Read data at address 0x110. Fsx expects here zeros, but in fact here is data, that was written at step 1.
+
+When fsx tries to read data kernel calls pager with seqno_memory_object_data_request, and pager returns on step 4 zeros either with memory_object_data_provided or memory_object_data_unavailable. Before this, in default_pager_set_size memory_object_lock_request called to flush any kernel caches, that could hold data to be truncated. When I set offset to 0 and size to limit in memory_object_lock_request it appeared another error ([[see|http://www.bddebian.com:8888/~hurd-web/user/Maksym_Planeta/#fsx_fail2411]]). Both these behaviors appear to be quite strange for me. It is quite late now, so i put these notes to not forget this and went sleep. Continue tomorrow.
