From cb6a2db640d94a9dc29dabb9bf58d4ff2531d42c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Keith Mannthey Date: Tue, 23 Jul 2013 00:07:02 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] staging/lustre/llite: error of listxattr when buffer is small According to the standard, listxattr(2) should return -1 and errno should be set to ERANGE if the size of the list buffer is too small to hold the result. However ll_listxattr() will return a value bigger than the size of buffer in some cases. Let's assume listxattr(2) returns SIZE when it is called with a large enough list buffer. If it's called again with a list buffer whose size is smaller than SIZE but bigger than (SIZE - 12), then listxattr(2) will return SIZE too. This patch fixes the problem.
