request for inclusion of 2 xfs patches

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello, 

I'd like to request the following two patches to be 
included in 4.4 stable: 

0facef7fb053 ("xfs: in _attrlist_by_handle, copy the cursor back to userspace")

2a6fba6d2311 ("xfs: only return -errno or success from attr ->put_listent")

The fix a failure in xfstest/269 and also enable the xfs' XFS_IOC_ATTRLIST_BY_HANDLE
ioctl to function properly. The first commit applies cleanly, whereas the second has 
a minor conflict due t spacing. Backport is attached.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] xfs: only return -errno or success from attr
 ->put_listent

Today, the put_listent formatters return either 1 or 0; if
they return 1, some callers treat this as an error and return
it up the stack, despite "1" not being a valid (negative)
error code.

The intent seems to be that if the input buffer is full,
we set seen_enough or set count = -1, and return 1;
but some callers check the return before checking the
seen_enough or count fields of the context.

Fix this by only returning non-zero for actual errors
encountered, and rely on the caller to first check the
return value, then check the values in the context to
decide what to do.
