[ Upstream commit 6e9a2f8dbe ]
The nfs inodes for referral anchors that have not yet been followed have
their filehandles zeroed out.
Attempting to call getxattr() on one of these will cause the nfs client
to send a GETATTR to the nfs server with the preceding PUTFH sans
filehandle. The server will reply NFS4ERR_NOFILEHANDLE, leading to -EIO
being returned to the application.
For example:
$ strace -e trace=getxattr getfattr -n system.nfs4_acl /mnt/t/ref
getxattr("/mnt/t/ref", "system.nfs4_acl", NULL, 0) = -1 EIO (Input/output error)
/mnt/t/ref: system.nfs4_acl: Input/output error
+++ exited with 1 +++
Have the xattr handlers return -ENODATA instead.
