What's happening is that we have an inode with size 0, but we are not checking it's size. The bug is easy to trigger (at least in my test environment), and the conditions for it are: 1) the inode size has to be 0, and 2) the read has to return data ('ret = ceph_osdc_wait_request()'). This will lead to 'left' being set to huge values due to the overflow in: left = i_size - off; However, some times (maybe most of the time) __ceph_sync_read() will not crash and will return -EFAULT instead. In the 'while (left > 0) { ... }' loop, the condition '(copied < plen)' will be true and this error is returned in the first iteration of the loop. So, here's a much simpler approach to fix this issue: to bailout if we have a 0-sized inode. What do you think?
