Revision 71641d99ce037ea226f94d5e08f2a8f71eba08f4 authored by Chuck Lever on 23 June 2017, 21:18:41 UTC, committed by J. Bruce Fields on 12 July 2017, 19:54:57 UTC
When an RPC-over-RDMA request is received, the Receive buffer contains a Transport Header possibly followed by an RPC message. Even though rq_arg.head[0] (as passed to NFSD) does not contain the Transport Header header, currently rq_arg.len includes the size of the Transport Header. That violates the intent of the xdr_buf API contract. .buflen should include everything, but .len should be exactly the length of the RPC message in the buffer. The rq_arg fields are summed together at the end of svc_rdma_recvfrom to obtain the correct return value. rq_arg.len really ought to contain the correct number of bytes already, but it currently doesn't due to the above misbehavior. Let's instead ensure that .buflen includes the length of the transport header, and that .len is always equal to head.iov_len + .page_len + tail.iov_len .

README
Linux kernel
============
This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst
Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
