[PATCH 5.11 270/342] jffs2: Hook up splice_write callback

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

 



From: Joel Stanley <joel@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 42984af09afc414d540fcc8247f42894b0378a91 upstream.

overlayfs using jffs2 as the upper filesystem would fail in some cases
since moving to v5.10. The test case used was to run 'touch' on a file
that exists in the lower fs, causing the modification time to be
updated. It returns EINVAL when the bug is triggered.

A bisection showed this was introduced in v5.9-rc1, with commit
36e2c7421f02 ("fs: don't allow splice read/write without explicit ops").
Reverting that commit restores the expected behaviour.

Some digging showed that this was due to jffs2 lacking an implementation
of splice_write. (For unknown reasons the warn_unsupported that should
trigger was not displaying any output).

Adding this patch resolved the issue and the test now passes.
