Subject: [PATCH v2 2/3] tmpfs: combine !uptodate and post-eof zeroing logic at swapout
Date: Wed, 12 Nov 2025 11:25:21 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251112162522.412295-3-bfoster@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251112162522.412295-1-bfoster@redhat.com>
shmem_writeout() zeroes folios that are !uptodate (before marking
them uptodate) or that extend beyond EOF to preserve data integrity
according to POSIX. This is handled in a couple different blocks.
Fold the !uptodate zeroing into the post-eof block so we zero from
one place.
