Package: linux-source-3.16 Severity: normal Hi,
I am not sure how CKT handles bugfix requests but here is something which is IMHO worth being backported (it actually applies cleanly to 3.16). That problem might explain some of those issues: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=apt-cacher-ng+hashsum >From current linux git, master branch: commit 0ff28d9f4674d781e492bcff6f32f0fe48cf0fed Author: Christophe Leroy <christophe.le...@c-s.fr> Date: Wed May 6 17:26:47 2015 +0200 splice: sendfile() at once fails for big files Using sendfile with below small program to get MD5 sums of some files, it appear that big files (over 64kbytes with 4k pages system) get a wrong MD5 sum while small files get the correct sum. This program uses sendfile() to send a file to an AF_ALG socket for hashing. ... After investivation, it appears that sendfile() sends the files by blocks of 64kbytes (16 times PAGE_SIZE). The problem is that at the end of each block, the SPLICE_F_MORE flag is missing, therefore the hashing operation is reset as if it was the end of the file. This patch adds SPLICE_F_MORE to the flags when more data is pending.
