[PATCH v2 13/11] tty: splice_write: disable

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

 



Given:
	cat > ttyW.c <<^D
	#define _GNU_SOURCE
	#include <fcntl.h>
	#include <stdlib.h>
	int main()
	{
		int pt = posix_openpt(O_RDWR);
		grantpt(pt);
		unlockpt(pt);
		int cl = open(ptsname(pt), O_WRONLY);
		for (;;)
			splice(0, 0, cl, 0, 128 * 1024 * 1024, 0);
	}
	^D
	cc ttyW.c -o ttyW
	mkfifo fifo
	truncate 32M 32M
	./ttyW < fifo &
	cp 32M fifo &
	sleep 0.1
	read -r _ < fifo
ttyW used to sleep in splice and the shell used to enter an
uninterruptible sleep in open("fifo");
now the splice returns -EINVAL and the whole program completes.

This is also symmetric with the splice_read removal.

It hit me that I should actually probably exhaustively re-evaluate
splice_write as well since re-evaluating splice_read went so well.

fs/fuse/dev.c:  .splice_write   = fuse_dev_splice_write,
drivers/char/virtio_console.c:  .splice_write = port_fops_splice_write,
locks, takes some pages, unlocks, writes, so OK

drivers/char/mem.c:	.splice_write	= splice_write_null,
drivers/char/mem.c:	.splice_write	= splice_write_zero,
no-op

drivers/char/random.c:	.splice_write = iter_file_splice_write,
drivers/char/random.c:	.splice_write = iter_file_splice_write,
AFAICT write_pool_user is okay to invoke like this?

net/socket.c:   .splice_write = splice_to_socket,
already dealt with in 11/11

drivers/tty/tty_io.c:   .splice_write   = iter_file_splice_write,
drivers/tty/tty_io.c:   .splice_write   = iter_file_splice_write,
they do lock the pipe and try the write with the lock held;
we already killed splice_read so just kill splice_write for symmetry
(13/11)

fs/fuse/file.c: .splice_write   = iter_file_splice_write,
same logic as splice_read applies (14/11)
