Subject: [PATCH v2] fs: Add uoff_t
Date: Sun, 23 Nov 2025 22:05:15 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251123220518.1447261-1-willy@infradead.org> (raw)

In a recent commit, I inadvertently changed a comparison from being an
unsigned comparison (on 64-bit systems) to being a signed comparison
(which it had always been on 32-bit systems).  This led to a sporadic
fstests failure.

To make sure this comparison is always unsigned, introduce a new type,
uoff_t which is the unsigned version of loff_t.  Generally file sizes
are restricted to being a signed integer, but in these two places it is
convenient to pass -1 to indicate "up to the end of the file".

Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) <willy@infradead.org>

v2: Fix build issue caused by not converting the !CONFIG_SHMEM case
With this patch and reverting b94488503277 ("iomap: use loff_t for file
positions and offsets in writeback code"), fstets passes on next-20251121
