I don't know the splice interface well, but suspect the filesystem's in the wrong here. Checking for overflow of the page array isn't sufficient to catch any such problems; if the filesystem gives us a smaller number of partial pages, I'd guess (not having tested) that nfsd is just going to assume the full page should be used, and end up sending uninitialized data back to the client. So I wouldn't necessarily be opposed to a simple check for a misbehaving filesystem here, but if the required checks are more complicated and if we've only ever seen it against an out-of-tree filesystem then I'm less interested. --b. > > Seiichi. > > > > >>> What version of the kernel did you see this happen on?
