You later want "size >> PAGE_SHIFT" for another test, and that's actually the important part. The "+ PAGE_SIZE - 1" case is purely to handle the "AT the page boundary is special" case, but since you have to calculate "offset_in_page(size)" anyway, that's entirely redundant - the answer is part of that. So I think it would be better to write the logic as loff_t size = i_size_read(inode); pgoff_t index = size >> PAGE_SHIFT; int offset = offset_in_page(size); if (page->mapping != inode->i_mapping) return -EFAULT; /* Page is wholly past the EOF page */ if (page->index > index) return -EFAULT; /* page is wholly inside EOF */ if (page->index < index) return PAGE_SIZE; /* bytes in a page? If 0, it's past EOF */ return offset ? offset : -PAGE_SIZE; instead. That avoids the unnecessary "round up" part, and simply uses the same EOF index for everything. Linus
