Hello, This morning I updated the kernel on my workstation to the current git tree (62ea6d80211ecc88ef516927ecebf64cb505be3f). Upon reboot, I cannot change file access permissions of files in a directory that is nfs mounted (using NFS4): $ chmod 0600 $path chmod: Changing permissions of `$path': Input/output error In the kernel log I am getting these gems: [ 275.990233] decode_attr_group: reply buffer overflowed in line 2678.<4>decode _attr_group: reply buffer overflowed in line 2678.<4>decode_attr_group: reply bu ffer overflowed in line 2678.<4>decode_attr_group: reply buffer overflowed in li ne 2678.<4>decode_attr_group: reply buffer overflowed in line 2678.<4>decode_att r_group: reply buffer overflowed in line 2678. The server is Linux running Debian testing with the kernel updated to 2.6.20-1-686 from (http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/l/linux-2.6/linux-image-2.6.20-1-686_2.6.20-3_i386.deb) Kernel 2.6.21 works fine on the client.
