Subject: [PATCH] NFS: Guard against READDIR loop when entry names exceed MAXNAMELEN
Date: Tue, 22 Aug 2023 14:22:38 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <40e7e63d448698851c301e0c219875178103bc31.1692728474.git.bcodding@redhat.com> (raw)
Commit 64cfca85bacd asserts the only valid return values for
nfs2/3_decode_dirent should not include -ENAMETOOLONG, but for a server
that sends a filename3 which exceeds MAXNAMELEN in a READDIR response the
client's behavior will be to endlessly retry the operation.
We could map -ENAMETOOLONG into -EBADCOOKIE, but that would produce
truncated listings without any error. The client should return an error
for this case to clearly assert that the server implementation must be
corrected.
Fixes: 64cfca85bacd ("NFS: Return valid errors from nfs2/3_decode_dirent()")
