[PATCH v3 0/2] ceph: don't NULL terminate virtual xattr values

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



v3: switch to using an intermediate buffer for snprintf destination
    add patch to fix ceph_vxattrcb_layout return value
v2: drop bogus EXPORT_SYMBOL of static function

This is the 3rd posting of this patchset. Instead of adding a new
snprintf variant that doesn't NULL terminate, this set instead has
the vxattr handlers use an intermediate buffer as the snprintf
destination and then memcpy's the result into the destination buffer.

Also, I added a patch to fix up the return of ceph_vxattrcb_layout. The
existing code actually worked, but relied on casting a signed negative
value to unsigned and back, which seemed a little sketchy.

Most of the rationale for this set is in the description of the first
patch of the series.
