Whatever gets into csa_fore_chan_attrs.ca_maxresponsesize? The spec doesn't say max, it says "desired." I guess I assumed the server wouldn't normally return more than desired. 18.43.3. DESCRIPTION ... The LAYOUTGET operation returns layout information for the specified byte-range: a layout. The client actually specifies two ranges, both starting at the offset in the loga_offset field. The first range is between loga_offset and loga_offset + loga_length - 1 inclusive. This range indicates the desired range the client wants the layout to cover. The second range is between loga_offset and loga_offset + loga_minlength - 1 inclusive. This range indicates the required range the client needs the layout to cover. Thus, loga_minlength MUST be less than or equal to loga_length. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
