6.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: David Howells <dhowells@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit c596bea1452ddf172ec9b588e4597228e9a1f4d5 ] Fix netfs_perform_write() to set BDP_ASYNC if IOCB_NOWAIT is set rather than if IOCB_SYNC is not set. It reflects asynchronicity in the sense of not waiting rather than synchronicity in the sense of not returning until the op is complete. Without this, generic/590 fails on cifs in strict caching mode with a complaint that one of the writes fails with EAGAIN. The test can be distilled down to: mount -t cifs /my/share /mnt -ostuff xfs_io -i -c 'falloc 0 8191M -c fsync -f /mnt/file xfs_io -i -c 'pwrite -b 1M -W 0 8191M' /mnt/file Fixes: c38f4e96e605 ("netfs: Provide func to copy data to pagecache for buffered write") Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@xxxxxxxxxx> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/316306.1716306586@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Reviewed-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@xxxxxxxxx> cc: Jeff Layton <jlayton@xxxxxxxxxx> cc: Enzo Matsumiya <ematsumiya@xxxxxxx> cc: Jens Axboe <axboe@xxxxxxxxx> cc: Matthew Wilcox <willy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> cc: netfs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx cc: v9fs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx cc: linux-afs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx cc: linux-cifs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx cc: linux-fsdevel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Christian Brauner <brauner@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@xxxxxxxxxx> --- fs/netfs/buffered_write.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/fs/netfs/buffered_write.c b/fs/netfs/buffered_write.c index 267b622d923b1..912ad0a1df021 100644 --- a/fs/netfs/buffered_write.c +++ b/fs/netfs/buffered_write.c @@ -163,7 +163,7 @@ ssize_t netfs_perform_write(struct kiocb *iocb, struct iov_iter *iter, struct folio *folio; enum netfs_how_to_modify howto; enum netfs_folio_trace trace; - unsigned int bdp_flags = (iocb->ki_flags & IOCB_SYNC) ? 0: BDP_ASYNC; + unsigned int bdp_flags = (iocb->ki_flags & IOCB_NOWAIT) ?
