When we consider the generic routine of encode_fh() and the structure ‘fid’

struct fid {
struct {
u32 ino;
u32 gen;
u32 parent_ino;
u32 parent_gen;
} i32;
};

fh_len= 2(without parent)
fh_len=4(with parent)

Condition checking in export_encode_fh()
{

if (parent && (len < 4)) {
*max_len = 4;
return FILEID_INVALID;
} else if (len < 2) {
*max_len = 2;
return FILEID_INVALID;
}
...
len = 2;
...
if (parent) {
..
len = 4;
type = FILEID_INO32_GEN_PARENT;
}

}

The logic does take care of altering the length for the ‘2’ cases
with/without parent.
So, while encoding -> the care has been taken for length checking but
while decoding(generic_fh_to_dentry) the length check is not put in
place.
I think it should be done in the generic routine also.

It should be:
if ((fh_len != 2 && fh_len != 4) ||
(fh_type != FILEID_INO32_GEN && fh_type !=
FILEID_INO32_GEN_PARENT))
return NULL;

Please share your opinion.

Thanks.
