... and don't zero anything on short copy; just unlock and return 0 if that has happened on non-uptodate page. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

If we had a short copy into an uptodate page, there's no reason whatsoever to zero anything; OTOH, if that page had _not_ been uptodate, we must have been trying to overwrite it completely and got a short copy. In that case, overwriting the end with zeroes, marking uptodate and sending to server is just plain wrong. Just unlock, keep it non-uptodate and return 0.

a) the page is uptodate - ->write_begin() would either fail (in which case we don't reach ->write_end()), or unstuff the inode, or find the page already uptodate, or do a successful call of stuffed_readpage(), which would've made it uptodate b) zeroing the tail in pagecache is wrong. kill -9 at the right time while writing unmodified file contents to the same file should _not_ leave us in a situation when read() from the file will be reporting it full of zeroes. Especially since that effect will be transient - at some later point the page will be evicted and then we'll be back to the real file contents. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

don't zero on short copies; if the page was uptodate it's just plain wrong, and if it wasn't we'll be better off just returning 0 and buggering off. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

What matters when deciding if we should make a page uptodate is not how much we _wanted_ to copy, but how much we actually have copied. As it is, on architectures that do not zero tail on short copy we can leave uninitialized data in page marked uptodate. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Constifying this pointers make a cleaner interface to be used by (future) code which may only have access to const struct path pointers (e.g. LSM hooks).

In commit 10724cc7 ("tipc: redesign connection-level flow control") we replaced the previous message based flow control with one based on 1k blocks. In order to ensure backwards compatibility the mechanism falls back to using message as base unit when it senses that the peer doesn't support the new algorithm. The default flow control window, i.e., how many units can be sent before the sender blocks and waits for an acknowledge (aka advertisement) is 512. This was tested against the previous version, which uses an acknowledge frequency of on ack per 256 received message, and found to work fine. However, we missed the fact that versions older than Linux 3.15 use an acknowledge frequency of 512, which is exactly the limit where a 4.6+ sender will stop and wait for acknowledge. This would also work fine if it weren't for the fact that if the first sent message on a 4.6+ server side is an empty SYNACK, this one is also is counted as a sent message, while it is not counted as a received message on a legacy 3.15-receiver. This leads to the sender always being one step ahead of the receiver, a scenario causing the sender to block after 512 sent messages, while the receiver only has registered 511 read messages. Hence, the legacy receiver is not trigged to send an acknowledge, with a permanently blocked sender as result. We solve this deadlock by simply allowing the sender to send one more message before it blocks, i.e., by a making minimal change to the condition used for determining connection congestion.

gcc-7 detects a short memset in mvpp2, introduced in the original merge of the driver: drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/mvpp2.c: In function 'mvpp2_cls_init': drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/mvpp2.c:3296:2: error: 'memset' used with length equal to number of elements without multiplication by element size [-Werror=memset-elt-size] The result seems to be that we write uninitialized data into the flow table registers, although we did not get any warning about that uninitialized data usage. Using sizeof() lets us initialize then entire array instead.

In commit 35c55c98 ("tipc: add neighbor monitoring framework") we added a data area to the link monitor STATE messages under the assumption that previous versions did not use any such data area. For versions older than Linux 4.3 this assumption is not correct. In those version, all STATE messages sent out from a node inadvertently contain a 16 byte data area containing a string; -a leftover from previous RESET messages which were using this during the setup phase. This string serves no purpose in STATE messages, and should no be there. Unfortunately, this data area is delivered to the link monitor framework, where a sanity check catches that it is not a correct domain record, and drops it. It also issues a rate limited warning about the event. Since such events occur much more frequently than anticipated, we now choose to remove the warning in order to not fill the kernel log with useless contents. We also make the sanity check stricter, to further reduce the risk that such data is inavertently admitted. Signed-off-by: Jon Maloy <jon.maloy@ericsson.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

commit 81729810 ("tipc: fix link priority propagation") introduced a compatibility problem between TIPC versions newer than Linux 4.6 and those older than Linux 4.4. In versions later than 4.4, link STATE messages only contain a non-zero link priority value when the sender wants the receiver to change its priority. This has the effect that the receiver resets itself in order to apply the new priority. This works well, and is consistent with the said commit. However, in versions older than 4.4 a valid link priority is present in all sent link STATE messages, leading to cyclic link establishment and reset on the 4.6+ node. We fix this by adding a test that the received value should not only be valid, but also differ from the current value in order to cause the receiving link endpoint to reset.
