It doesn't prevent the corruption from happening, and it requires a user to know to report it upstream. That tends to be iffy, as they're more likely to report the latest issue found in dmesg, which will have occurred after the corruption. Is that really the behavior you want? josh > for (i = 0, bvl = (bio)->bi_io_vec; i < (bio)->bi_vcnt; i++, bvl++) > > static inline void bvec_iter_advance(struct bio_vec *bv, struct bvec_iter *iter, > -- > 1.9.1 > > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in > the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html > Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-block" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

For one cloned bio, kernel shouldn't touch all segments of this bio via the helper, because the bvec table is shared among all related bios, so warn once for this usage. This change should catch recent memory corruption issue, which is fixed by 23688bf4f830(block: ensure to split after potentially bouncing a bio).
