Hi all!
(1) Questions: I'd like to hear more comments regarding my FUTIME fcntl
proposal.
(2) An idea that could be very convenient for file systems that try
to keep the fragmentation low: what about an Fcntl opcode to inform
the driver about the amount of bytes that *will* be written to the
file? Desktops and copy programs (like cp) could use this.
