From 76e2b0b65d47206754084233d268d57ade2a988e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Takashi Iwai Date: Wed, 20 Jan 2021 16:11:12 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] cachefiles: Drop superfluous readpages aops NULL check commit db58465f1121086b524be80be39d1fedbe5387f3 upstream. After the recent actions to convert readpages aops to readahead, the NULL checks of readpages aops in cachefiles_read_or_alloc_page() may hit falsely. More badly, it's an ASSERT() call, and this panics. Drop the superfluous NULL checks for fixing this regression. [DH: Note that cachefiles never actually used readpages, so this check was never actually necessary] BugLink: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=208883 BugLink: https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1175245 Fixes: 9ae326a69004 ("CacheFiles: A cache that backs onto a mounted filesystem") Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai Signed-off-by: David Howells Acked-by: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman --- fs/cachefiles/rdwr.c | 2 -- 1 file changed, 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/fs/cachefiles/rdwr.c b/fs/cachefiles/rdwr.c index 8bda092e60c5..e027c718ca01 100644 --- a/fs/cachefiles/rdwr.c +++ b/fs/cachefiles/rdwr.c @@ -413,7 +413,6 @@ int cachefiles_read_or_alloc_page(struct fscache_retrieval *op, inode = d_backing_inode(object->backer); ASSERT(S_ISREG(inode->i_mode)); - ASSERT(inode->i_mapping->a_ops->readpages); /* calculate the shift required to use bmap */ shift = PAGE_SHIFT - inode->i_sb->s_blocksize_bits; @@ -713,7 +712,6 @@ int cachefiles_read_or_alloc_pages(struct fscache_retrieval *op, inode = d_backing_inode(object->backer); ASSERT(S_ISREG(inode->i_mode)); - ASSERT(inode->i_mapping->a_ops->readpages); /* calculate the shift required to use bmap */ shift = PAGE_SHIFT - inode->i_sb->s_blocksize_bits;
