The way the NFS XDR buffer allocations work seems to be that you can actually slightly overun it without things falling apart, but that doesn't make it right. E.g. it took a fairly larger overrun in the block layout driver to finally find the issues, and most of the time it was just silent truncations, real corruption happened less often. But to make sure things work properly in the long run you'd really want to have the proper allocation. -- 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
