From d3c50061765d4b5616dc97f5804fc18122598a9b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ian Kent Date: Mon, 23 Oct 2023 17:33:59 +0800 Subject: autofs: fix add autofs_parse_fd() We are seeing systemd hang on its autofs direct mount at /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc. Historically this was due to a mismatch in the communication structure size between a 64 bit kernel and a 32 bit user space and was fixed by making the pipe communication record oriented. During autofs v5 development I decided to stay with the existing usage instead of changing to a packed structure for autofs <=> user space communications which turned out to be a mistake on my part. Problems arose and they were fixed by allowing for the 64 bit to 32 bit size difference in the automount(8) code. Along the way systemd started to use autofs and eventually encountered this problem too. systemd refused to compensate for the length difference insisting it be fixed in the kernel. Fortunately Linus implemented the packetized pipe which resolved the problem in a straight forward and simple way. In the autofs mount api conversion series I inadvertatly dropped the packet pipe flag settings when adding the autofs_parse_fd() function. This patch fixes that omission.
