Subject: [patch 25/26] knfsd: Correct reserved reply space for read requests.
Date: Tue, 4 Apr 2006 17:01:22 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060405000122.GZ27049@kroah.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20060404235927.GA27049@kroah.com>

[-- Attachment #1: knfsd-correct-reserved-reply-space-for-read-requests.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2796 bytes --]

From: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>


NFSd makes sure there is enough space to hold the maximum possible reply
before accepting a request.  The units for this maximum is (4byte) words. 
However in three places, particularly for read request, the number given is
a number of bytes.

This means too much space is reserved which is slightly wasteful.

This is the sort of patch that could uncover a deeper bug, and it is not
critical, so it would be best for it to spend a while in -mm before going
in to mainline.

(akpm: target 2.6.17-rc2, 2.6.16.3 (approx))
