Subject: [PATCHSET v2 0/2] io_uring: handle short reads internally
Date: Fri, 14 Aug 2020 12:54:47 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200814195449.533153-1-axboe@kernel.dk> (raw)

Hi,

Since we've had a few cases of applications not dealing with this
appopriately, I believe the safest course of action is to ensure that
we don't return short reads when we really don't have to.

The first patch is just a prep patch that retains iov_iter state over
retries, while the second one actually enables just doing retries if
we get a short read back.

This passes all my testing, both liburing regression tests but also
tests that explicitly trigger internal short reads and hence retry
based on current state. No short reads are passed back to the
application.

Changes since v1:

- Fixed an issue with fixed/registered buffers
- Rewrite io_read() code flow to be a lot more readable
- Add comments
