Subject: [PATCH] nfsd: fix XDR padding calculation in ff_encode_getdeviceinfo
Date: Wed, 27 May 2026 14:30:41 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260527-pnfs-fixes-v1-1-784f39dc1eca@kernel.org> (raw)
nfsd4_ff_encode_getdeviceinfo() computes the da_addr_body reservation
as 16 + netid_len + addr_len, but the subsequent xdr_encode_opaque()
calls emit 8 + round_up(netid_len, 4) + round_up(addr_len, 4) bytes.
The mismatch means the declared da_addr_body length exceeds the actual
encoded data by 2-8 bytes on every flexfile GETDEVICEINFO reply,
leaking stale reply-page content to the client and mis-aligning the
subsequent version list decode.
Use xdr_align_size() for each string length to match what
xdr_encode_opaque() actually writes.
Fixes: efcae97fa425 ("NFSD: da_addr_body field missing in some GETDEVICEINFO replies")
