Hi all This patch is submitted by Yunlei He originally, but it's not complete one, so I modified it and add some description, then resubmit it. >From 3f8de7fe93354215b9b12293302a0a999cf3888a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yunlei He <heyunlei@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 29 Jul 2015 15:10:24 +0800 Subject: [PATCH 2/4] f2fs: report EINVAL for unalignment direct IO We run ltp testcase with f2fs and obtain a TFAIL in diotest4, the result in detail is as fallow: dio04 <<<test_start>>> tag=dio04 stime=1432278894 cmdline="diotest4" contacts="" analysis=exit <<<test_output>>> diotest4 1 TPASS : Negative Offset diotest4 2 TPASS : removed diotest4 3 TFAIL : diotest4.c:129: write allows odd count.returns 1: Success diotest4 4 TFAIL : diotest4.c:183: Odd count of read and write diotest4 5 TPASS : Read beyond the file size ...... the result of ext4 with same environment: dio04 <<<test_start>>> tag=dio04 stime=1432259643 cmdline="diotest4" contacts="" analysis=exit <<<test_output>>> diotest4 1 TPASS : Negative Offset diotest4 2 TPASS : removed diotest4 3 TPASS : Odd count of read and write diotest4 4 TPASS : Read beyond the file size ...... The reason is that when triggering DIO in f2fs, we will return zero value in ->direct_IO if writer's buffer offset, file offset and transfer size is not alignment to block size of filesystem, resulting in falling back into buffered write instead of returning -EINVAL. This patch fixes that problem by returning correct error number for above case, and removing the judgement condition in check_direct_IO to make sure the verification will be enabled for direct reader too. Besides, Jaegeuk Kim pointed out that there is expectional cases we should always make direct-io falling back into buffered write, such as dio in encrypted file.
