Subject: [PATCH] xfs: handle EOF correctly in xfs_vm_writepage
Date: Tue, 3 Jul 2012 12:20:00 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120703162000.GA13016@infradead.org> (raw)

We need to zero out part of a page which beyond EOF before setting uptodate,
otherwise, mapread or write will see non-zero data beyond EOF.

Based on the code in fs/buffer.c and the following ext4 commit:

  ext4: handle EOF correctly in ext4_bio_write_page()

And yes, I wish we had a good test case for it.
