From: Daniel N Pettersson <danielnp@xxxxxxxx> When the IP address is gotten from the UNC, use only the address part of the UNC. Else all after the percent sign in an IPv6 link local address is interpreted as a scope id. This includes the slash and share name. A scope id is expected to be an integer and any trailing characters makes the conversion to integer fail. Example of mount command that fails: mount -i -t cifs //fe80::6a05:caff:fe3e:8ffc%2/test /mnt/t -o sec=none Signed-off-by: Daniel N Pettersson <danielnp@xxxxxxxx> --- fs/cifs/connect.c | 9 +++++++-- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/fs/cifs/connect.c b/fs/cifs/connect.c index d82467c..3f7819e 100644 --- a/fs/cifs/connect.c +++ b/fs/cifs/connect.c @@ -1945,9 +1945,14 @@ cifs_parse_mount_options(const char *mountdata, const char *devname, } if (!got_ip) { + int len; + const char *slash; + /* No ip= option specified?
