Subject: [PATCH] zram: rely on the bi_end_io for zram_rw_page fails
Date: Fri, 14 Nov 2014 09:49:07 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1415926147-9023-1-git-send-email-minchan@kernel.org> (raw)
When I tested zram, I found processes got segfaulted.
The reason was zram_rw_page doesn't make the page dirty
again when swap write failed, and even it doesn't return
error by [1].
If error by zram internal happens, zram_rw_page should return
non-zero without calling page_endio.
It causes resubmit the IO with bio so that it ends up calling
bio->bi_end_io.
The reason is zram could be used for a block device for FS and
swap, which they uses different bio complete callback, which
works differently. So, we should rely on the bio I/O complete
handler rather than zram_bvec_rw itself in case of I/O fail.
This patch fixes the segfault issue as well one [1]'s
mentioned
[1] zram: make rw_page opeartion return 0
