[PATCH 5.4 392/453] SMB3: avoid confusing warning message on mount to Azure

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

 



From: Steve French <stfrench@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit ebcd6de98754d9b6a5f89d7835864b1c365d432f upstream.

Mounts to Azure cause an unneeded warning message in dmesg
   "CIFS: VFS: parse_server_interfaces: incomplete interface info"

Azure rounds up the size (by 8 additional bytes, to a
16 byte boundary) of the structure returned on the query
of the server interfaces at mount time.  This is permissible
even though different than other servers so do not log a warning
if query network interfaces response is only rounded up by 8
bytes or fewer.
