From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx> commit f2d6c2708bd84ca953fa6b6ca5717e79eb0140c7 upstream. Wire up the splice_read and splice_write methods to the default helpers using ->read_iter and ->write_iter now that those are implemented for kernfs. This restores support to use splice and sendfile on kernfs files. Fixes: 36e2c7421f02 ("fs: don't allow splice read/write without explicit ops") Reported-by: Siddharth Gupta <sidgup@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Tested-by: Siddharth Gupta <sidgup@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210120204631.274206-4-hch@xxxxxx Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- fs/kernfs/file.c | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) --- a/fs/kernfs/file.c +++ b/fs/kernfs/file.c @@ -949,6 +949,8 @@ const struct file_operations kernfs_file .release = kernfs_fop_release, .poll = kernfs_fop_poll, .fsync = noop_fsync, + .splice_read = generic_file_splice_read, + .splice_write = iter_file_splice_write, }; /**
