             Bug #: 13729
           Summary: write() to a disk device returns success although
                    kernel function has failed
           Product: glibc
           Version: 2.11
            Status: NEW
          Severity: critical
          Priority: P2
         Component: libc
        AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: redhat@kcs.de
                CC: drepper.fsp@gmail.com
    Classification: Unclassified


This code line

if ( write(fd,buf,sectsize*i) != (sectsize*i) ) error(1,errno,"fill_blocks
write failed");

never throws an error, although nothing gets written to the disk.

The Linux kernel knows the problem. It just doesn't get reported through to my
user space program.

Syslog excerpt:
Feb 22 18:55:29 linux-xyf6 kernel: [   99.981245] sd 1:0:0:0: [sdb] Unhandled
error code
Feb 22 18:55:29 linux-xyf6 kernel: [   99.981248] sd 1:0:0:0: [sdb]  Result:
