[PATCH 0/2] shmem, splice: Fixes for shmem_splice_read()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Hugh,

Here are a couple of fix patches for shmem_splice_read():

 (1) Fix the splicing of a zero_page in place of a missing page.  This should
     only splice in the calculated part of the page and everything to the end
     of the page.

 (2) Apply a couple of fixes already applied to filemap_splice_read(),
     including using in->f_mapping_host rather than file_inode(in) and
     ignoring splices that start at or after s_maxbytes.

I've pushed the patches here also:
