[PATCH 0/2] netfs: Miscellaneous fixes

[David Howells]

Hi Christian,

Here are a couple of fixes for netfslib:

 (1) Fix an i_dio_count leak on a DIO read starting beyond EOF.

 (2) Fix a missing zero-length check in an unbuffered write causing 9p to
     indicate EIO.

The patches can also be found here:

Thanks,
David

[PATCH 0/2] netfs: Miscellaneous fixes

[David Howells]

Hi Christian,

Here are a couple of miscellaneous fixes for netfslib.

 (1) Fix an uninitialised return value from netfs_unbuffered_write().

 (2) Fix read progress reporting to avoid 64-bit tearing on a 32-bit
     machine.  This has been modified from the previous submission as part
     of a different series to take account of a sashiko reported issue[1].

The patches can also be found here:

Thanks,
David

[PATCH 1/2] netfs: Fix uninitialized return value in netfs_unbuffered_write()

[David Howells]

From: Karl Mehltretter <kmehltretter@gmail.com>

If preparation of the first subrequest fails,
netfs_unbuffered_write() exits its loop before ret is initialized. The
empty-iterator check can do the same.

For synchronous writes, netfs_unbuffered_write_iter_locked() may then
return an unrelated error instead of wreq->error. This is reachable
through CIFS if cifs_prepare_write() fails to reopen the file or obtain
credits.

Initialize ret to 0 so the caller returns wreq->error if no data was
written, or the number of bytes already written otherwise.

Found with Clang's -Wconditional-uninitialized.

[PATCH 2/2] netfs: Fix read progress reporting

[David Howells]

For really big read RPC ops that span multiple folios, netfslib allows the
filesystem to give progress notifications to wake up the collector thread
to do a collection of folios that have now been fetched, even if the RPC is
still ongoing, thereby allowing the application to make progress.

This works by taking the current rreq->cleaned_to value (which indicates
which folios have been unlocked) and adding the stashed size of the next
folio to it.  cleaned_to, however, is subject to 64-bit tearing on a 32-bit
arch.

Fix this by stashing the next progress notification point as a size_t
(which won't tear) to be added to rreq->start (which won't change), with
the collector thread calculating that from cleaned_to plus the next folio
size.

Further, however, if the folios are small, the collector thread gets
constantly woken up - which has a negative performance impact on the
system.

Fix that too by setting a minimum trigger of 256KiB or the size of the
folio at the front of the queue, whichever is larger.

Also, make sure rreq->cleaned_to is initialised up front, along with
rreq->collected_to and stream->collected_to.
