seq_file: always update file->f_pos in seq_lseek()
commit 05e16745c0 upstream.
This issue was first pointed out by Jiaxing Wang several months ago, but no
further comments:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/6/29/41
As we know pread() does not change f_pos, so after pread(), file->f_pos
and m->read_pos become different. And seq_lseek() does not update file->f_pos
if offset equals to m->read_pos, so after pread() and seq_lseek()(lseek to
m->read_pos), then a subsequent read may read from a wrong position, the
following program produces the problem:
char str1[32] = { 0 };
char str2[32] = { 0 };
int poffset = 10;
int count = 20;
/*open any seq file*/
int fd = open("/proc/modules", O_RDONLY);
pread(fd, str1, count, poffset);
printf("pread:%s\n", str1);
/*seek to where m->read_pos is*/
lseek(fd, poffset+count, SEEK_SET);
/*supposed to read from poffset+count, but this read from position 0*/
read(fd, str2, count);
printf("read:%s\n", str2);
out put:
pread:
ck_netbios_ns 12665
read:
nf_conntrack_netbios
/proc/modules:
nf_conntrack_netbios_ns 12665 0 - Live 0xffffffffa038b000
nf_conntrack_broadcast 12589 1 nf_conntrack_netbios_ns, Live 0xffffffffa0386000
So we always update file->f_pos to offset in seq_lseek() to fix this issue.
