There are no other callers of xdr_set_scratch_buffer(). 8<--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- >From f71825a9002d4008a5b2ac947bc03b9d7c788557 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 17 Mar 2011 13:42:31 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] NFS: Fix a decoding problem in nfs3_decode_dirent When we decode a filename followed by an 8-byte cookie, we need to consider the fact that the filename and cookie are 32-bit word aligned. Presently, we may end up copying insufficient amounts of data when xdr_inline_decode() needs to invoke xdr_copy_to_scratch to deal with a page boundary. The following patch fixes the issue by first decoding the filename, and then decoding the cookie.
