When doing a partial writeback, afs_write_back_from_locked_page() may
generate an FS.StoreData RPC request that writes out part of a file when a
file has been constructed from pieces by doing seek, write, seek, write,
... as is done by ld.
The FS.StoreData RPC is given the current i_size as the file length, but
the server basically ignores it unless the data length is 0 (in which case
it's just a truncate operation). The revised file length returned in the
result of the RPC may then not reflect what we suggested - and this leads
to i_size getting moved backwards - which causes issues later.
Fix the client to take account of this by ignoring the returned file size
unless the data version number jumped unexpectedly - in which case we're
going to have to clear the pagecache and reload anyway.
This can be observed when doing a kernel build on an AFS mount. The
following pair of commands produce the issue:
ld -m elf_x86_64 -z max-page-size=0x200000 --emit-relocs \
-T arch/x86/realmode/rm/realmode.lds \
arch/x86/realmode/rm/header.o \
arch/x86/realmode/rm/trampoline_64.o \
arch/x86/realmode/rm/stack.o \
arch/x86/realmode/rm/reboot.o \
-o arch/x86/realmode/rm/realmode.elf
arch/x86/tools/relocs --realmode \
arch/x86/realmode/rm/realmode.elf \
>arch/x86/realmode/rm/realmode.relocs
This results in the latter giving:
Cannot read ELF section headers 0/18: Success
as the realmode.elf file got corrupted.
The sequence of events can also be driven with:
xfs_io -t -f \
-c "pwrite -S 0x58 0 0x58" \
-c "pwrite -S 0x59 10000 1000" \
-c "close" \

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
