This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled io_uring: fix return value when removing provided buffers to the 6.1-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-fix-return-value-when-removing-provided-buf.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.1 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 98bb57ff2b493bb6d0fc0aad835530a55e1d5e84 Author: Wojciech Lukowicz <wlukowicz01@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat Apr 1 20:50:38 2023 +0100 io_uring: fix return value when removing provided buffers [ Upstream commit c0921e51dab767ef5adf6175c4a0ba3c6e1074a3 ] When a request to remove buffers is submitted, and the given number to be removed is larger than available in the specified buffer group, the resulting CQE result will be the number of removed buffers + 1, which is 1 more than it should be. Previously, the head was part of the list and it got removed after the loop, so the increment was needed. Now, the head is not an element of the list, so the increment shouldn't be there anymore.
