mainlining shenanigans
dceeb47b0e
A deduplication data corruption is Exposed by fstests generic/505 on XFS. It is caused by extending the block match range to include the partial EOF block, but then allowing unknown data beyond EOF to be considered a "match" to data in the destination file because the comparison is only made to the end of the source file. This corrupts the destination file when the source extent is shared with it. XFS only supports whole block dedupe, but we still need to appear to support whole file dedupe correctly. Hence if the dedupe request includes the last block of the souce file, don't include it in the actual XFS dedupe operation. If the rest of the range dedupes successfully, then report the partial last block as deduped, too, so that userspace sees it as a successful dedupe rather than return EINVAL because we can't dedupe unaligned blocks.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
