This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled io_uring: retry in case of short read on block device to the 5.14-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: io_uring-retry-in-case-of-short-read-on-block-device.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.14 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 4e3adb15deeb9ab52c8de90960957ea74dde01f4 Author: Ming Lei <ming.lei@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat Aug 21 23:07:51 2021 +0800 io_uring: retry in case of short read on block device [ Upstream commit 7db304375e11741e5940f9bc549155035bfb4dc1 ] In case of buffered reading from block device, when short read happens, we should retry to read more, otherwise the IO will be completed partially, for example, the following fio expects to read 2MB, but it can only read 1M or less bytes: fio --name=onessd --filename=/dev/nvme0n1 --filesize=2M \ --rw=randread --bs=2M --direct=0 --overwrite=0 --numjobs=1 \ --iodepth=1 --time_based=0 --runtime=2 --ioengine=io_uring \ --registerfiles --fixedbufs --gtod_reduce=1 --group_reporting Fix the issue by allowing short read retry for block device, which sets FMODE_BUF_RASYNC really.
