[PATCH] [resend] VFS locking errors on max offset edge cases

From: Bruce Allan
Date: Thu Dec 23 2004 - 18:07:56 EST


[Sorry for the resend, my mailer fudged the diff (hope it works this
time]

A number of Connectathon (http://www.connectathon.org/nfstests.html)
POSIX/fcntl() locking tests fail (even on local filesystems) at various
edge cases (i.e. around maximum allowable offsets) on 64-bit
architectures.

The overflow tests in fs/compat.c were superfluous where they were
located because if there was a conflicting lock, l_start and l_len would
have been overwritten with the values owned by the conflicting lock; if
no conflicting lock, sys_fcntl() would have returned any applicable
error. The tests are moved above the call to sys_fcntl() to capture
overflow errors which would not have been caught by sys_fcntl(), eg.
obvious overflow when _FILE_OFFSET_BITS == 32.

These tests also had a couple 'off by one' errors when comparing with
the maximum allowable offset.

Patch created against 2.6.10-rc3, tested on ppc64 with both
_FILE_OFFSET_BITS set to 32 and 64.
