Currently, part of our server-side RPC argument-handling code that's generated from rxgen looks like this (for example): z_result = SRXAFS_BulkStatus(z_call, &FidsArray, &StatArray, &CBArray, &Sync); z_xdrs->x_op = XDR_ENCODE; if ((!xdr_AFSBulkStats(z_xdrs, &StatArray)) || (!xdr_AFSCBs(z_xdrs, &CBArray)) || (!xdr_AFSVolSync(z_xdrs, &Sync))) z_result = RXGEN_SS_MARSHAL; fail: [...] return z_result; When the server routine for implementing the RPC results a non-zero value into z_result, the call will be aborted. However, before we abort the call, we still call the xdr_* routines with XDR_ENCODE for all of our output arguments. If the call has not already been aborted for other reasons, we'll serialize the output argument data into the Rx call. If we push more data than can fit in a single Rx packet for the call, then we'll also send that data to the client. Many server routines for implementing RPCs do not initialize the memory inside their output arguments during certain errors, and so the memory may be leaked to the peer. To avoid this, just jump to the 'fail' label when a nonzero 'z_result' is returned. This means we skip sending the output argument data to the peer, but we still free any argument data that needs freeing, and record the stats for the call (if needed). This makes the above example now look like this: z_result = SRXAFS_BulkStatus(z_call, &FidsArray, &StatArray, &CBArray, &Sync); if (z_result) goto fail; z_xdrs->x_op = XDR_ENCODE; if ((!xdr_AFSBulkStats(z_xdrs, &StatArray)) || (!xdr_AFSCBs(z_xdrs, &CBArray)) || (!xdr_AFSVolSync(z_xdrs, &Sync))) z_result = RXGEN_SS_MARSHAL; fail: [...] return z_result; Change-Id: I2bdea2e808bb215720492b0ba6ac1a88da61b954 Reviewed-on: https://gerrit.openafs.org/13913 Reviewed-by: Andrew Deason <adeason@sinenomine.net> Tested-by: BuildBot <buildbot@rampaginggeek.com> Reviewed-by: Benjamin Kaduk <kaduk@mit.edu> |

AFS is a distributed file system that enables users to share and access all of the files stored in a network of computers as easily as they access the files stored on their local machines. The file system is called distributed for this exact reason: files can reside on many different machines, but are available to users on every machine. OpenAFS 1.0 was originally released by IBM under the terms of the IBM Public License 1.0 (IPL10). For details on IPL10 see the LICENSE file in this directory. The current OpenAFS distribution is licensed under a combination of the IPL10 and many other licenses as granted by the relevant copyright holders. The LICENSE file in this directory contains more details, thought it is not a comprehensive statement. See INSTALL for information about building and installing OpenAFS on various platforms. See CODING for developer information and guidelines. See NEWS for recent changes to OpenAFS.
