Subject: [PATCH] nfsd: use xdr_encode_opaque_fixed for all GETXATTR fragments
Date: Tue, 15 Sep 2026 14:39:01 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260915173902.3184534-1-qwe.aldo@gmail.com> (raw)

nfsd4_vbuf_to_stream() already uses xdr_encode_opaque_fixed() when the
final fragment is shorter than a page, but the preceding memcpy() in the
loop body does not clear XDR padding.

When the last fragment happens to be exactly PAGE_SIZE the short-fragment
branch is never entered, and the loop exits through the normal buflen
path.  If that final page-sized reservation is not word-aligned within
the XDR stream, its padding bytes are left stale.

Convert the loop memcpy to xdr_encode_opaque_fixed() and drop the now
redundant short-fragment padding block, matching the first-fragment fix.
