First, let me thank you for an incredibly prompt reply.

I have to reply with ENOENT (not -ENOENT), since the return type is
unsigned.

I have tried that, and it still produces exactly the same result.
Well, your comment just made me take another look at that block of code
(and I have already looked at it 1e99 times) and it turns out I was
forgetting to set the write size to sizeof(reply.coda_create). I think
