From: "Andrew Gray" <7114@blargh.com> To: nfs@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [NFS] Patch to mountd to mount files > 2GB Date: Tue, 13 Jan 2004 21:19:16 -0800 Greetings all, If this has been problem/solution has been posted before, please disregard :) I'm using NFS to serve out FLAR archives to Sun machines. These files are > 2GB, and the auto-installer for the Sun boxes mount the files, not the directories. mountd was refusing to authenticate these otherwise legit requests because the stat() call was bombing due the filesize being too large. I hacked up the quick diff below that fixed the problem. The files transfer correctly and completely, but I admit I haven't performed further testing. diff -u nfs-utils-1.0.6-orig/utils/mountd/mountd.c nfs-utils-1.0.6/utils/mountd/mountd.c --- nfs-utils-1.0.6-orig/utils/mountd/mountd.c Fri Sep 12 15:14:16 2003 +++ nfs-utils-1.0.6/utils/mountd/mountd.c Tue Jan 13 20:11:49 2004 @@ -176,7 +176,7 @@ { struct sockaddr_in *sin = (struct sockaddr_in *) svc_getcaller(rqstp->rq_xprt); - struct stat stb; + struct stat64 stb; nfs_export *exp; char rpath[MAXPATHLEN+1]; char *p = *path; @@ -198,7 +198,7 @@ /* Now authenticate the intruder... */ if (!(exp = auth_authenticate("pathconf", sin, p))) { return 1; - } else if (stat(p, &stb) < 0) { + } else if (stat64(p, &stb) < 0) { xlog(L_WARNING, "can't stat exported dir %s: %s", p, strerror(errno)); export_reset (exp); @@ -248,7 +248,7 @@ { struct sockaddr_in *sin = (struct sockaddr_in *) svc_getcaller(rqstp->rq_xprt); - struct stat stb, estb; + struct stat64 stb, estb; nfs_export *exp; char rpath[MAXPATHLEN+1]; char *p = *path; @@ -268,7 +268,7 @@ /* Now authenticate the intruder... */ if (!(exp = auth_authenticate("mount", sin, p))) { *error = NFSERR_ACCES; - } else if (stat(p, &stb) < 0) { + } else if (stat64(p, &stb) < 0) { xlog(L_WARNING, "can't stat exported dir %s: %s", p, strerror(errno)); if (errno == ENOENT) @@ -278,7 +278,7 @@ } else if (!S_ISDIR(stb.st_mode) && !S_ISREG(stb.st_mode)) { xlog(L_WARNING, "%s is not a directory or regular file", p); *error = NFSERR_NOTDIR; - } else if (stat(exp->m_export.e_path, &estb) < 0) { + } else if (stat64(exp->m_export.e_path, &estb) < 0) { xlog(L_WARNING, "can't stat export point %s: %s", p, strerror(errno)); *error = NFSERR_NOENT;
