From abc5c44d6284fab8fb21bcfc52c0f16f980637df Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chuck Lever Date: Thu, 23 Apr 2009 19:31:25 -0400 Subject: SUNRPC: Fix error return value of svc_addr_len() The svc_addr_len() helper function returns -EAFNOSUPPORT if it doesn't recognize the address family of the passed-in socket address. However, the return type of this function is size_t, which means -EAFNOSUPPORT is turned into a very large positive value in this case. The check in svc_udp_recvfrom() to see if the return value is less than zero therefore won't work at all. Additionally, handle_connect_req() passes this value directly to memset(). This could cause memset() to clobber a large chunk of memory if svc_addr_len() has returned an error. Currently the address family of these addresses, however, is known to be supported long before handle_connect_req() is called, so this isn't a real risk. Change the error return value of svc_addr_len() to zero, which fits in the range of size_t, and is safer to pass to memset() directly. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever Signed-off-by: J.
