Linux kernel source tree
e00e99ba6c
When a folio that is marked for streaming write (dirty, but not uptodate,
with partial content specified in the private data) is written back, the
folio is effectively switched to the blank state upon completion of the
write. This means that if we want to read it in future, we need to reread
the whole folio.
However, if the folio is above the zero_point position, when it is read
back, it will just be cleared and the read skipped, leading to apparent
local corruption.
Fix this by increasing the zero_point to the end of the dirty data in the
folio when clearing the folio state after writeback. This is analogous to
the folio having ->release_folio() called upon it.
This was causing the config.log generated by configuring a cpython tree on
a cifs share to get corrupted because the scripts involved were appending
text to the file in small pieces.

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.
