Message-ID: <20250813231515.7AADEC4CEF5@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)


The patch titled
     Subject: iov_iter: iterate_folioq: fix handling of offset >= folio size
has been added to the -mm mm-hotfixes-unstable branch.  Its filename is

Subject: iov_iter: iterate_folioq: fix handling of offset >= folio size
Date: Wed, 13 Aug 2025 15:04:55 +0900

It's apparently possible to get an iov advanced all the way up to the end
of the current page we're looking at, e.g.

(gdb) p *iter
$24 = {iter_type = 4 '\004', nofault = false, data_source = false, iov_offset = 4096, {__ubuf_iovec = {
      iov_base = 0xffff88800f5bc000, iov_len = 655}, {{__iov = 0xffff88800f5bc000, kvec = 0xffff88800f5bc000,
        bvec = 0xffff88800f5bc000, folioq = 0xffff88800f5bc000, xarray = 0xffff88800f5bc000,
        ubuf = 0xffff88800f5bc000}, count = 655}}, {nr_segs = 2, folioq_slot = 2 '\002', xarray_start = 2}}

Where iov_offset is 4k with 4k-sized folios

This should have been fine because we're only in the 2nd slot and there's
another one after this, but iterate_folioq should not try to map a folio
that skips the whole size, and more importantly part here does not end up
zero (because 'PAGE_SIZE - skip % PAGE_SIZE' ends up PAGE_SIZE and not
zero..), so skip forward to the "advance to next folio" code
