Why isn't rq_addrlen involved here? rq_addrlen gets set in the generic code (see svc_recv). The source of the address is the transport, not the rqstp structure. The rqstp structure caches it for use when responding to the request in svc_process. Ironically, I think the HA case that Greg referred to is the only reason we can't get rid of rq_addr/rq_daddr altogether and access the address data directly from svc_xprt. Since this address may change for UDP, we have to store it in the rqstp structure and use it to reply because another request could arrive in the interim and change the address data in svc_xprt. > the xpt_remote field should be a sockaddr_storage, ...it is. > and the remote_len field should be the actual length of the address, > not the size of the storage space. Perhaps it should be, but a) kernel_recvmsg doesn't give us a length, b) to determine it would require a switch, the degenerate case for which is sizeof(storage), and c) in it's current usage, big-enough is good-enough. A weaker point is "that's the way it's always been" ;-) Tom > >> if (skb->tstamp.tv64 == 0) { >> skb->tstamp = ktime_get_real(); >> /* Don't enable netstamp, sunrpc doesn't ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
