Hi all,

When running a program on a distribute volume with sharding, sometimes
the files get created with an extra line of special characters ^@^@^@ at
the end. This happen under load with multiple nodes access the same
folders with job creating files and reading them very shortly on another
node (>0.5 sec later).
I did an strace and the major difference is an Inappropriate ioctl
followed by an lseek like below.


When running the same workload on a panfs filesystem , the strace is the
same but no extra line get created at the end.


Thanks for any advice on further debugging or resolution on this.

Patrice.
