[PATCH] [PATCH V2] mm/filemap: fix page end in filemap_get_read_batch

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

 



From: Qian Yingjin <qian@xxxxxxx>

I was running traces of the read code against an RAID storage
system to understand why read requests were being misaligned
against the underlying RAID strips. I found that the page end
offset calculation in filemap_get_read_batch() was off by one.

When a read is submitted with end offset 1048575, then it
calculates the end page for read of 256 when it should be 255.
"last_index" is the index of the page beyond the end of the read
and it should be skipped when get a batch of pages for read in
@filemap_get_read_batch().

The below simple patch fixes the problem. This code was introduced
in kernel 5.12.

Fixes: cbd59c48ae2b ("mm/filemap: use head pages in generic_file_buffered_read")
