[PATCH 2/3] afs: Fix afs_write_end() to handle short writes

From: David Howells
Date: Mon Jun 14 2021 - 09:21:02 EST


Fix afs_write_end() to correctly handle a short copy into the intended
write region of the page. Two things are necessary:

(1) If the page is not up to date, then we should just return 0
(ie. indicating a zero-length copy). The loop in
generic_perform_write() will go around again, possibly breaking up the
iterator into discrete chunks.

This is analogous to commit b9de313cf05fe08fa59efaf19756ec5283af672a
for ceph.

(2) The page should not have been set uptodate if it wasn't completely set
up by netfs_write_begin() (this will be fixed in the next page), so we
need to set PG_uptodate here in such a case.

Fixes: 3003bbd0697b ("afs: Use the netfs_write_begin() helper")
