Hi all, Today's linux-next merge of the block tree got a conflict in: include/linux/fs.h between commit: 1bc6d4452d5c9 ("fs: new helper vfs_empty_path()") from the vfs-brauner tree and commit: c34fc6f26ab86 ("fs: Initial atomic write support") from the block tree. I fixed it up (see below) and can carry the fix as necessary. This is now fixed as far as linux-next is concerned, but any non trivial conflicts should be mentioned to your upstream maintainer when your tree is submitted for merging. You may also want to consider cooperating with the maintainer of the conflicting tree to minimise any particularly complex conflicts. diff --cc include/linux/fs.h index dc9f9c4b2572d,db26b4a70c628..0000000000000 --- a/include/linux/fs.h +++ b/include/linux/fs.h @@@ -3626,21 -3627,6 +3640,23 @@@ extern int vfs_fadvise(struct file *fil extern int generic_fadvise(struct file *file, loff_t offset, loff_t len, int advice); +static inline bool vfs_empty_path(int dfd, const char __user *path) +{ + char c; + + if (dfd < 0) + return false; + + /* We now allow NULL to be used for empty path. */ + if (!path) + return true; + + if (unlikely(get_user(c, path))) + return false; + + return !c; +} + + bool generic_atomic_write_valid(struct iov_iter *iter, loff_t pos); + #endif /* _LINUX_FS_H */
