From 7a3e70cfd88cc8062a106ed07bade5a38f146758 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Max Krummenacher Date: Wed, 5 Aug 2015 17:16:58 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] fs/fs.c: read up to EOF when len would read past EOF http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2012-September/134347.html allows for reading files in chunks from the shell. When this feature is used to read past the end of a file an error was returned instead of returning the bytes read up to the end of file. Thus the following fails in the shell: offset = 0 len = chunksize do read file, offset, len write data until bytes_read < len The patch changes the behaviour to printing an informational message and returning the actual read number of bytes aka read(2) behaviour for convenient use in U-Boot scripts.
