Reserving space for a large READ payload requires special handling when reserving space in the xdr buffer pages. One problem we can have is use of the scratch buffer, which is used to get a pointer to a contiguous region of data up to PAGE_SIZE. When using the scratch buffer, calls to xdr_commit_encode() shift the data to it's proper alignment in the xdr buffer. If we've reserved several pages in a vector, then this could potentially invalidate earlier pointers and result in incorrect READ data being sent to the client. I get around this by looking at the amount of space left in the current page, and never reserve more than that for each entry in the read vector. This lets us place data directly where it needs to go in the buffer pages. Signed-off-by: Anna Schumaker <Anna.Schumaker@Netapp.com> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com>
