Re: [PATCH] Convert slashes in the UNC parameter to backslashes

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

 



Here the corrected (and tested) version.

Jeff: I agree with you regarding removing the UNC parameter altogether. Is there any scenario in which an UNC parameter could differ from the specified source parameter?

Regards,
Fred

This patch ensures that slashes used as separators in the
UNC are properly converted to backslashes. The existing
implementation did not perform that conversion and that
lead to a "invalid argument" error when specifying an UNC
explicitly which contained slashes in it.

Looks harmless enough, but it would be clearer to use the
convert_delimiter() helper function here, rather than open-coding that
functionality.

Long term, it would be good to get rid of the unc= and prefixpath=
options altogether and simply have the kernel extract this information
from the device name at mount time instead.
