[PATCH v14 05/17] overlayfs: Implement splice-read
Posted by David Howells 1 year, 9 months ago
Implement splice-read for overlayfs by passing the request down a layer
rather than going through generic_file_splice_read() which is going to be
changed to assume that ->read_folio() is present on buffered files.

This is unnecessary, as it was already done in ovl_real_fdget() ->
ovl_real_fdget_meta() -> ovl_change_flags().

Should be on real.file.

Leaks fd.

Does that mean ovl_read_iter() and ovl_write_iter() shouldn't be doing it,
then?

That's a different thing, because ovl_*_iter() are checking on
ki->flags, not f_flags.

Notes:
    ver #15)
     - Remove redundant FMODE_CAN_ODIRECT check on real file.
     - Do rw_verify_area() on the real file, not the overlay file.
     - Fix a file leak.

Looks good.  One more suggestion: add a vfs_splice() helper and use
that from do_splice_to() as well.

Thanks,

Can I put that down as an Acked-by?

I really hate call_read_iter() etc.  Please don't perpetuate that
pattern.

I didn't suggest call_splice_read().  vfs_splice_read() would have the
rw_verify_area() as well as the check for non-null ->splice_read().

Doing it that way from the start would have prevented two of the bugs
that David introduced in the first version.

Thanks,
Miklos

I think it's time to kill it.  I'll prepare a patch for it.
