parentnetfs: Fix streaming write being overwritten (diff)
netfs: Fix potential deadlock in write-through mode
Fix netfs_advance_writethrough() to always unlock the supplied folio and to mark it dirty if it isn't yet written to the end. Unfortunately, it can't be marked for writeback until the folio is done with as that may cause a deadlock against mmapped reads and writes. Even though it has been marked dirty, premature writeback can't occur as the caller is holding both inode->i_rwsem (which will prevent concurrent truncation, fallocation, DIO and other writes) and ictx->wb_lock (which will cause flushing to wait and writeback to skip or wait). Note that this may be easier to deal with once the queuing of folios is split from the generation of subrequests. Fixes: 288ace2f57c9 ("netfs: New writeback implementation") Closes: https://sashiko.dev/#/patchset/20260427154639.180684-1-dhowells%40redhat.com Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260512123404.719402-15-dhowells@redhat.com cc: Paulo Alcantara <pc@manguebit.org> cc: netfs@lists.linux.dev cc: linux-fsdevel@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org>
