I'd either send a separate patch today for fixing 'T', or if you want to handle it by yourself, then just go ahead.

Yes, Tcreate is only 9p2000 and 9p2000.u. Semantically this particular check here means "if proto == 9p.2000". I can't remember anymore why I came up with this inverted form here. I'll change it to "if (c->proto_version == p9_proto_legacy)".

I have not taken the Linux kernel's current filename limit NAME_MAX (255) as basis, in that case you would be right. Instead I looked up what the maximum filename length among file systems in general was, and saw that ReiserFS supports up to slightly below 4k? So I took 4k as basis for the calculation used here, and the intention was to make this code more future proof. Because revisiting this code later on always takes quite some time and always has this certain potential to miss out details.

However if you want this to be based on what the Linux kernel currently supports, then I can also adjust this code to 255 being the basis.

Independent of the decision; additionally it might make sense to add something like:

#if NAME_MAX > 255
# error p9_msg_buf_size() needs adjustments
#endif

Because va_arg(ap, int32_t); must remain between those two declarations, and I think either the compiler or style check script was barking at me. But I will recheck, if possible I will remove the additional block scope here.

As above, 4k being the basis for directory entry names, plus PATH_MAX (4k) as basis for maximum path length.

However looking at it again, if NAME_MAX == 4k was assumed exactly, then Tsymlink would have the potential to exceed 8k, as it has name[s] and symtgt[s] plus the other fields.

I guess that was a typo and should have been Twstat instead?

Rstat contains stat[n] which in turn contains variable-length string fields (filename, owner name, group name)

Like mentioned above, if exactly NAME_MAX == 4k was assumed, then Tsymlink may even be >8k.

Again current NAME_MAX (255) vs. assumed max. supported (4k) by filesystems.

If 255 is assumed then it would be fine to not list here, otherwise with max. name 4k I should rather list it as 8k message.

Looks like that slipped through on my side completely. Again 255 being basis then yes it could be skipped, 4k would require being listed as 8k message then.

Thanks for the review! I know, that's really a dry patch to look at. :)
