[RFC 3/8] fs/buffer: restart block_read_full_folio() to avoid array overflow

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

 



From: Hannes Reinecke <hare@xxxxxxx>

block_read_full_folio() uses an on-stack array to hold any buffer_heads
which should be updated. The array is sized for the number of buffer_heads
per PAGE_SIZE, which of course will overflow for large folios.
So instead of increasing the size of the array (and thereby incurring
a possible stack overflow for really large folios) stop the iteration
when the array is filled up, submit these buffer_heads, and restart
the iteration with the remaining buffer_heads.
