When a series of O_DIRECT reads or writes are truncated, either due to
eof or due to an error, then we should return the number of contiguous
bytes that were received/sent starting at the offset specified by the
application.
Currently, we are failing to correctly check contiguity, and so we're
failing the generic/465 in xfstests when the race between the read
and write RPCs causes the file to get extended while the 2 reads are
outstanding. If the first read RPC call wins the race and returns with
eof set, we should treat the second read RPC as being truncated.

README
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.
