We have a couple of problems, first reports of unexpected link breakage for reads when cqe->res indicates that the IO was done in full. The reason here is partial IO with retries. TL;DR; we compare the result in __io_complete_rw_common() against req->cqe.res, but req->cqe.res doesn't store the full length but rather the length left to be done. So, when we pass the full corrected result via kiocb_done() -> __io_complete_rw_common(), it fails. The second problem is that we don't try to correct res in io_complete_rw(), which, for instance, might be a problem for O_DIRECT but when a prefix of data was cached in the page cache. We also definitely don't want to pass a corrected result into io_rw_done(). The fix here is to leave __io_complete_rw_common() alone, always pass not corrected result into it and fix it up as the last step just before actually finishing the I/O.

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.
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.
