From 97308f8b0d867e9ef59528cd97f0db55ffdf5651 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andreas Gruenbacher Date: Fri, 23 Jul 2021 01:59:41 +0200 Subject: iomap: Support partial direct I/O on user copy failures In iomap_dio_rw, when iomap_apply returns an -EFAULT error and the IOMAP_DIO_PARTIAL flag is set, complete the request synchronously and return a partial result. This allows the caller to deal with the page fault and retry the remainder of the request. Signed-off-by: Andreas Gruenbacher Reviewed-by: Darrick J.
