3f6bc9e3abNetfslib needs to be able to handle kernel-initiated asynchronous DIO that
is supplied with a bio_vec[] array. Currently, because of the async flag,
this gets passed to netfs_extract_user_iter() which throws a warning and
fails because it only handles IOVEC and UBUF iterators. This can be
triggered through a combination of cifs and a loopback blockdev with
something like:
mount //my/cifs/share /foo
dd if=/dev/zero of=/foo/m0 bs=4K count=1K
losetup --sector-size 4096 --direct-io=on /dev/loop2046 /foo/m0
echo hello >/dev/loop2046
This causes the following to appear in syslog:
WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 109 at fs/netfs/iterator.c:50 netfs_extract_user_iter+0x170/0x250 [netfs]
and the write to fail.
Fix this by removing the check in netfs_unbuffered_write_iter_locked() that
causes async kernel DIO writes to be handled as userspace writes. Note
that this change relies on the kernel caller maintaining the existence of
the bio_vec array (or kvec[] or folio_queue) until the op is complete.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
