Sparse files no longer work #530

Closed vasi-stripe closed 5 months ago

vasi-stripe commented 6 years ago

I've tried returning an st_blocks field different from st_size / 512, and it doesn't seem to affect anything. This is true even with -o sparse passed as an option.

I've verified that this is also the case when using the ufs example filesystem, even though it seems to support sparse mode: https://github.com/osxfuse/filesystems/blob/master/filesystems-c/unixfs/ufs/ufs_mainx.c#L98 . There's also an historical commit that implies this once worked: https://github.com/osxfuse/kext/commit/a92433ba3902e3f8990b08c524219da6dfa0deb3

I'm using osxfuse 3.8.0 on macOS 10.13.3

Is this still an issue with the latest version of macFUSE?
