Subject: [PATCH] io_uring: do not recycle buffer in READV
Date: Thu, 21 Jul 2022 06:13:25 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <[email protected]> (raw)

READV cannot recycle buffers as it would lose some of the data required to
reimport that buffer.

Reported-by: Ammar Faizi <[email protected]>
Fixes: b66e65f41426 ("io_uring: never call io_buffer_select() for a buffer re-select")
Signed-off-by: Dylan Yudaken <[email protected]>

I think going forward we can probably re-enable recycling for READV, or perhaps stick
it in the opdef to make it a bit more general. However since it is late in the merge
cycle I thought the simplest approach is best.

Worth noting the initial discussed approach of stashing the data in `struct io_rw` would not
have worked as that struct is full already apparently.
