[PATCH 13/14] staging/lustre/llite: do not clear uptodate bit in page delete

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

 



From: Jinshan Xiong <jinshan.xiong@xxxxxxxxx>

Otherwise, if the race between page fault and truncate occurs, it
will cause the page fault routine to return an EIO error.

In filemap_fault() {
    page_not_uptodate:
    ...
        ClearPageError(page);
        error = mapping->a_ops->readpage(file, page);
        if (!error) {
                wait_on_page_locked(page);
                if (!PageUptodate(page))
                        error = -EIO;
    }
    ...
}

However, I tend to think this is a defect in kernel implementation,
because it assumes PageUptodate shouldn't be cleared but file read
routine doesn't make the same assumption.
