Hello,

syzbot has tested the proposed patch but the reproducer is still triggering an issue:
INFO: task hung in netfs_unbuffered_write_iter

OK, as expected.

Dear syzbot, thank you.

So far I think this is another problem revealed by aaec5a95d59615523db03dd5
("pipe_read: don't wake up the writer if the pipe is still full").

I am going to forget about this report for now and return to it later, when
all the pending pipe-related changes in vfs.git are merged.

P.S. I'm trying to repro this on my machine on latest upstream. Haven't
gotten lucky yet with the C reproducer with my config. I'm moving to the
the syzbot's config to see if it reveals something. If I have something
I'll report back here.


Oleg.
