Remove BUG_ON if p_arglen=0 to allow RPC with void arg. Remove BUG_ON if p_replen=0 to allow RPC with void return. The former was needed for the first revision of the LOCALIO protocol which had an RPC that took a void arg: /* raw RFC 9562 UUID */ typedef u8 uuid_t<UUID_SIZE>; program NFS_LOCALIO_PROGRAM { version LOCALIO_V1 { void NULL(void) = 0; uuid_t GETUUID(void) = 1; } = 1; } = 400122; The latter is needed for the final revision of the LOCALIO protocol which has a UUID_IS_LOCAL RPC which returns a void: /* raw RFC 9562 UUID */ typedef u8 uuid_t<UUID_SIZE>; program NFS_LOCALIO_PROGRAM { version LOCALIO_V1 { void NULL(void) = 0; void UUID_IS_LOCAL(uuid_t) = 1; } = 1; } = 400122; There is really no value in triggering a BUG_ON in response to either of these previously unsupported conditions. NeilBrown would like the entire 'if (proc->p_proc != 0)' branch removed (not just the one BUG_ON that must be removed for LOCALIO's immediate needs of returning void).
