Subject: [PATCH] Don't give client an empty flavor list
Date: Mon, 17 Aug 2009 13:33:56 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090817173356.GF27331@fieldses.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20090722000955.GC20694@fieldses.org>
From: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu>
In the absence of an explicit sec= option on an export, rpc.mountd is
returning a zero-length flavor list to clients in the MOUNT results.
The linux client doesn't seem to mind, but the Solaris client
(reasonably enough) is giving up; the symptom is a "security mode does
not match" error on mount.
We could modify the export-parsing code to ensure the secinfo array is
nonzero. But I think it's slightly simpler to handle this default case
in the implementation of the MOUNT call. This is more-or-less the same
thing the kernel does when mountd passes it an export without any
security flavors specified.
Thanks to Tom Haynes for bug report and diagnosis.
