> Hi -
> There is a bug in the way hadoop-nfs sets the credential length in 
> "Credentials" field of the NFS RPC packet when using AUTH_SYS
> In CredentialsSys.java, when we are writing the creds in to XDR object, we 
> set the length as follows:
>  // mStamp + mHostName.length + mHostName + mUID + mGID + mAuxGIDs.count
> 96     mCredentialsLength = 20 + mHostName.getBytes().length;
> (20 corresponds to 4 bytes for mStamp, 4 bytes for mUID, 4 bytes for mGID, 4 
> bytes for length field of hostname, 4 bytes for number of aux 4 gids) and 
> this is okay.
> However when we add the length of the hostname to this, we are not adding the 
> extra padded bytes for the hostname (If the length is not a multiple of 4) 
> and thus when the NFS server reads the packet, it returns GARBAGE_ARGS 
> because it doesn't read the uid field when it is expected to read. I can 
> reproduce this issue constantly on machines where the hostname length is not 
> a multiple of 4.
> A possible fix is to do something this:
> int pad = mHostName.getBytes().length % 4;
>  // mStamp + mHostName.length + mHostName + mUID + mGID + mAuxGIDs.count
> mCredentialsLength = 20 + mHostName.getBytes().length + pad;
> I would be happy to submit the patch but I need some help to commit into 
> mainline. I haven't committed into Hadoop yet.
> Cheers!
> Pradeep
