loop: prevent information leak after failed read
If read was not fully successful we have to fail whole bio to prevent information leak of old pages ##Testcase_begin dd if=/dev/zero of=./file bs=1M count=1 losetup /dev/loop0 ./file -o 4096 truncate -s 0 ./file # OOps loop offset is now beyond i_size, so read will silently fail. # So bio's pages would not be cleared, may which result in information leak. hexdump -C /dev/loop0 ##testcase_end Signed-off-by: Dmitry Monakhov <dmonakhov@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
