If seq_file .next fuction does not change position index, read after some lseek can generate unexpected output: 1) dd bs=1 skip output of each 2nd elements $ dd if=/sys/fs/cgroup/cgroup.procs bs=8 count=1 2 3 4 5 1+0 records in 1+0 records out 8 bytes copied, 0,000267297 s, 29,9 kB/s [test@localhost ~]$ dd if=/sys/fs/cgroup/cgroup.procs bs=1 count=8 2 4 <<< NB! 3 was skipped 6 <<< ... and 5 too 8 <<< ... and 7 8+0 records in 8+0 records out 8 bytes copied, 5,2123e-05 s, 153 kB/s This happen because __cgroup_procs_start() makes an extra extra cgroup_procs_next() call 2) read after lseek beyond end of file generates whole last line. 3) read after lseek into middle of last line generates expected rest of last line and unexpected whole line once again. Additionally patch removes an extra position index changes in __cgroup_procs_start() Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=206283 Signed-off-by: Vasily Averin <vvs@virtuozzo.com> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> |

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.
