[PATCH 3.13 098/198] powerpc: 64bit sendfile is capped at 2GB
From: Kamal Mostafa
Date: Tue Jul 15 2014 - 18:23:51 EST
3.13.11.5 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Anton Blanchard <anton@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 5d73320a96fcce80286f1447864c481b5f0b96fa upstream.
commit 8f9c0119d7ba (compat: fs: Generic compat_sys_sendfile
implementation) changed the PowerPC 64bit sendfile call from
sys_sendile64 to sys_sendfile.
Unfortunately this broke sendfile of lengths greater than 2G because
sys_sendfile caps at MAX_NON_LFS. Restore what we had previously which
fixes the bug.
