[PATCH v3 1/2] afs: Fix afs_write_end() to handle short writes

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

 



Fix afs_write_end() to correctly handle a short copy into the intended
write region of the page.  Two things are necessary:

 (1) If the page is not up to date, then we should just return 0
     (ie. indicating a zero-length copy).  The loop in
     generic_perform_write() will go around again, possibly breaking up the
     iterator into discrete chunks[1].

     This is analogous to commit b9de313cf05fe08fa59efaf19756ec5283af672a
     for ceph.

 (2) The page should not have been set uptodate if it wasn't completely set
     up by netfs_write_begin() (this will be fixed in the next patch), so
     we need to set uptodate here in such a case.

Also remove the assertion that was checking that the page was set uptodate
since it's now set uptodate if it wasn't already a few lines above.  The
assertion was from when uptodate was set elsewhere.

Changes:
v3: Remove the handling of len exceeding the end of the page.
