Subject: Possible bug in btrfs_file_aio_write()
Date: Wed, 02 Feb 2011 15:15:52 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4D49BB78.2000906@nec-labs.com> (raw)
Hi,
I'm looking at the code for btrfs_file_aio_write(). Specifically, the
following lines:
first_index = pos >> PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT;
last_index = (pos + iov_iter_count(&i)) >> PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT;
/*
* there are lots of better ways to do this, but this code
* makes sure the first and last page in the file range are
* up to date and ready for cow
*/
if ((pos & (PAGE_CACHE_SIZE - 1))) {
pinned[0] = grab_cache_page(inode->i_mapping, first_index);
if (!PageUptodate(pinned[0])) {
ret = btrfs_readpage(NULL, pinned[0]);
BUG_ON(ret);
wait_on_page_locked(pinned[0]);
} else {
unlock_page(pinned[0]);
}
}
if ((pos + iov_iter_count(&i)) & (PAGE_CACHE_SIZE - 1)) {
pinned[1] = grab_cache_page(inode->i_mapping, last_index);
if (!PageUptodate(pinned[1])) {
ret = btrfs_readpage(NULL, pinned[1]);
BUG_ON(ret);
wait_on_page_locked(pinned[1]);
} else {
unlock_page(pinned[1]);
}
}
Am I missing something, or is there an off-by-one error over here? The
last byte in the written region would be "pos + iov_iter_count(&i) - 1",
not "pos + iov_iter_count(&i)". I verified this by writing 4096 bytes
at offset 0. first_index evaluates to 0 and last_index evaluates to 1.
