NFSD: Fix nfs4_verifier memory alignment
Clean up due to code review. The nfs4_verifier's data field is not guaranteed to be u32-aligned. Casting an array of chars to a u32 * is considered generally hazardous. We can fix most of this by using a __be32 array to generate the verifier's contents and then byte-copying it into the verifier field. However, there is one spot where there is a backwards compatibility constraint: the do_nfsd_create() call expects a verifier which is 32-bit aligned. Fix this spot by forcing the alignment of the create verifier in the nfsd4_open args structure. Also, sizeof(nfs4_verifer) is the size of the in-core verifier data structure, but NFS4_VERIFIER_SIZE is the number of octets in an XDR'd verifier. The two are not interchangeable, even if they happen to have the same value. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <[email protected]>
