Subject: [PATCH v17 07/17] afs: Fix an inconsistency in the symlink code
Date: Wed, 11 Nov 2026 20:30:20 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261111203034.2126314-8-dhowells@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261111203034.2126314-1-dhowells@redhat.com>
Fix the afs symlink code to set ->directory_size to the size of the buffer,
not PAGE_SIZE-1 or i_size. This doesn't actually change the operation
since the value is ignored by the symlink writeback path (which writes to
the cache).
This was spotted by Claude.
