From 126e4bc3b3b446482696377f67a634c76eaf2e9c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chuck Lever Date: Wed, 18 Mar 2009 20:47:14 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] SUNRPC: rpcbind actually interprets r_owner string RFC 1833 has little to say about the contents of r_owner; it only specifies that it is a string, and states that it is used to control who can UNSET an entry. Our port of rpcbind (from Sun) assumes this string contains a numeric UID value, not alphabetical or symbolic characters, but checks this value only for AF_LOCAL RPCB_SET or RPCB_UNSET requests. In all other cases, rpcbind ignores the contents of the r_owner string. The reference user space implementation of rpcb_set(3) uses a numeric UID for all SET/UNSET requests (even via the network) and an empty string for all other requests. We emulate that behavior here to maintain bug-for-bug compatibility. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust --- Reading git-format-patch failed
