| |
3.2.100-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Ben Hutchings <ben.hutchings@codethink.co.uk>
commit 1995266727fa8143897e89b55f5d3c79aa828420 upstream.
Commit bdcf0a423ea1 ("kernel: make groups_sort calling a responsibility group_info allocators") appears to break nfsd rootsquash in a pretty major way.
It adds a call to groups_sort() inside the loop that copies/squashes gids, which means the valid gids are sorted along with the following garbage. The net result is that the highest numbered valid gids are replaced with any lower-valued garbage gids, possibly including 0.
We should sort only once, after filling in all the gids.
