[RFC PATCH 02/37] generic_perform_write()/iomap_write_actor(): saner logics for short copy

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

 



if we run into a short copy and ->write_end() refuses to advance at all,
use the amount we'd managed to copy for the next iteration to handle.
