<h4>Description</h4>
<p>The <tt>f_lseek</tt> function moves the file read/write pointer of an open file. The offset can be specified in only origin from top of the file. When an offset beyond the file size is specified at write mode, the file size is expanded to the specified offset. The file data in the expanded area is undefined because no data is written to the file. This is suitable to pre-allocate a cluster chain quickly, for fast write operation. When a contiguous data area needs to be allocated to the file, use <tt>f_expand</tt> function instead. After the <tt>f_lseek</tt> function succeeded, the current read/write pointer should be checked in order to make sure the read/write pointer has been moved correctry. In case of the read/write pointer is not the expected value, either of followings has been occured.</p>
