[GIT PULL] netfs: Fix folio unmarking/unlocking loops

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

 



Hi Linus,

Could you pull these changes please?  There are two, affecting the
functions that iterates over the pagecache unmarking or unlocking pages
after an op is complete:

 (1) xas_for_each() loops must call xas_retry() first thing and immediately
     do a "continue" in the case that the extracted value is a special
     value that indicates that the walk raced with a modification.  Fix the
     unlock and unmark loops to do this.

 (2) The maths in the unlock loop is dodgy as it could, theoretically, at
     some point in the future end up with a starting file pointer that is
     in the middle of a folio.  This will cause a subtraction to go
     negative - but the number is unsigned.  Fix the maths to use absolute
     file positions instead of relative page indices.

Thanks,
David
