mm/swapfile.c: swap_next should increase position index
If seq_file .next fuction does not change position index, read after some lseek can generate unexpected output. In Aug 2018 NeilBrown noticed commit1f4aace60b
("fs/seq_file.c: simplify seq_file iteration code and interface") "Some ->next functions do not increment *pos when they return NULL... Note that such ->next functions are buggy and should be fixed. A simple demonstration is dd if=/proc/swaps bs=1000 skip=1 Choose any block size larger than the size of /proc/swaps. This will always show the whole last line of /proc/swaps" Described problem is still actual. If you make lseek into middle of last output line following read will output end of last line and whole last line once again. $ dd if=/proc/swaps bs=1 # usual output Filename Type Size Used Priority /dev/dm-0 partition4194812
