Subject: [stable-4.14 2/2] block: bio_iov_iter_get_pages: pin more pages for multi-segment IOs
Date: Tue, 25 Jun 2019 16:17:25 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190625141725.26220-3-jinpuwang@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190625141725.26220-1-jinpuwang@gmail.com>
From: Martin Wilck <mwilck@suse.com>
commit 17d51b10d7773e4618bcac64648f30f12d4078fb upstream
bio_iov_iter_get_pages() currently only adds pages for the next non-zero
segment from the iov_iter to the bio. That's suboptimal for callers,
which typically try to pin as many pages as fit into the bio. This patch
converts the current bio_iov_iter_get_pages() into a static helper, and
introduces a new helper that allocates as many pages as
1) fit into the bio,
2) are present in the iov_iter,
3) and can be pinned by MM.
Error is returned only if zero pages could be pinned. Because of 3), a
zero return value doesn't necessarily mean all pages have been pinned.
Callers that have to pin every page in the iov_iter must still call this
function in a loop (this is currently the case).
This change matters most for __blkdev_direct_IO_simple(), which calls
bio_iov_iter_get_pages() only once. If it obtains less pages than
requested, it returns a "short write" or "short read", and
__generic_file_write_iter() falls back to buffered writes, which may
lead to data corruption.
Fixes: 72ecad22d9f1 ("block: support a full bio worth of IO for simplified bdev direct-io")
