When a short read is performed we will restart this process +based on the open file descriptor. When calculating the start point we +fail to take into account that the 0th entry is the header. This leads +us to skip the first entry when doing a continuation read. + +This can be easily seen with the comparison below: + + while read l; do echo "$l"; done </proc/net/route >A + cat /proc/net/route >B + diff -bu A B | grep '^[+-]' + +On my example machine I have approximatly 10KB of route output. There we +see the very first non-title element is lost in the while read case, +and an entry around the 8K mark in the cat case: + + +wlan0 00000000 02021EAC 0003 0 0 400 00000000 0 0 0 + -tun1 00C0AC0A 00000000 0001 0 0 950 00C0FFFF 0 0 0 + +Fix up the off-by-one when reaquiring position on continuation. + +Fixes: 8be33e955cb9 ("fib_trie: Fib walk rcu should take a tnode and key instead of a trie and a leaf") +BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1483440 +Acked-by: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@redhat.com> +Signed-off-by: Andy Whitcroft <apw@canonical.com> +Signed-off-by: David S.
