From: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> When looking at the issues raised by Tigran's testing of the NFS client updates, I noticed a couple of things in the generic SUNRPC xdr code that want to be fixed. This patch series replaces an earlier series that attempted to just fix the XDR padding in the NFS code. This series fixes up a number of issues w.r.t. bounds checking in the xdr_stream code. It corrects the behaviour of xdr_read_pages() for the case where the XDR object size is larger than the buffer page array length and simplifies the code. Trond Myklebust (8): NFSv4: Fix the alignment of page data in the getdeviceinfo reply SUNRPC: Fix up typo in xdr_init_decode() SUNRPC: Clean up helpers xdr_set_iov() and xdr_set_page_base() SUNRPC: Fix up xdr_read_pages() to take arbitrary object lengths SUNRPC: Don't truncate tail in xdr_inline_pages() SUNRPC: Fix up xdr_set_page() SUNRPC: Fix open coded xdr_stream_remaining() NFSv4: Fix open coded xdr_stream_remaining() fs/nfs/nfs4xdr.c | 16 +++++--- net/sunrpc/xdr.c | 101 +++++++++++++++++++++-------------------------- 2 files changed, 56 insertions(+), 61 deletions(-) -- 2.28.0
