Linux kernel source tree
5f034d3473
If ovl file is opened O_APPEND, the underlying realfile is also opened O_APPEND, so it makes sense to propagate the IOCB_APPEND flags on sync writes to realfile, just as we do with aio writes. Effectively, because sync ovl writes are protected by inode lock, this change only makes a difference if the realfile is written to (size extending writes) from underneath overlayfs. The behavior in this case is undefined, so it is ok if we change the behavior (to fail the ovl IOCB_APPEND write). Signed-off-by: Amir Goldstein <amir73il@gmail.com> |

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 Restructured Text 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.
