Revision 1636d1d77ef4e01e57f706a4cae3371463896136 authored by Filipe Manana on 15 February 2016, 16:20:26 UTC, committed by Filipe Manana on 16 February 2016, 03:41:26 UTC
If a bio for a direct IO request fails, we were not setting the error in the parent bio (the main DIO bio), making us not return the error to user space in btrfs_direct_IO(), that is, it made __blockdev_direct_IO() return the number of bytes issued for IO and not the error a bio created and submitted by btrfs_submit_direct() got from the block layer. This essentially happens because when we call: dio_end_io(dio_bio, bio->bi_error); It does not set dio_bio->bi_error to the value of the second argument. So just add this missing assignment in endio callbacks, just as we do in the error path at btrfs_submit_direct() when we fail to clone the dio bio or allocate its private object. This follows the convention of what is done with other similar APIs such as bio_endio() where the caller is responsible for setting the bi_error field in the bio it passes as an argument to bio_endio(). This was detected by the new generic test cases in xfstests: 271, 272, 276 and 278. Which essentially setup a dm error target, then load the error table, do a direct IO write and unload the error table. They expect the write to fail with -EIO, which was not getting reported when testing against btrfs.
