I agree the description of the patch is poor. It sort of falls under the the man page's description of range beyond the end of the source file. But in NFSv4.2, there is an explicit wording for the validity of the input parameters and having an input source offset that's beyond the end of the file is what this patch is attempting to check. > If so, > i_size_read is just going to return whatever is in inode->isize. > Could a copy_file_range call end up getting issued to copy from a file > that is already open on a range that it doesn't know about yet? i.e. > where the inode cache has not yet been updated. I thought that with NFSv4 cache consistency, the inode->isize is accurate. If previous open had a read delegation, any modification on a server would trigger a CB_RECALL and the open for the copy offload would retrieve the latest size. In case of no delegations, the open retrieves the latest size and the call to copy_file_range() would have an update size. > It seems like that could on network filesystems (like NFS).

I'm not opposed to moving the size check into the NFS's copy_file_size (again in my opinion NFS attribute cache has the same file size as the inode's size). I think the thought was that such check should be done at the VFS layer as oppose to doing it by each of the file systems. > -- > Jeff Layton <jlayton@xxxxxxxxxx> >
