[PATCH 4.9 23/77] 9p/trans_virtio: discard zero-length reply

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Greg Kurz <groug@xxxxxxxx>

commit 26d99834f89e76514076d9cd06f61e56e6a509b8 upstream.

When a 9p request is successfully flushed, the server is expected to just
mark it as used without sending a 9p reply (ie, without writing data into
the buffer). In this case, virtqueue_get_buf() will return len == 0 and
we must not report a REQ_STATUS_RCVD status to the client, otherwise the
client will erroneously assume the request has not been flushed.
