From: Anand Jain <Anand.Jain@oracle.com> generally if you use echo "test" > /sys/fs/btrfs/<fsid>/label it would introduce return char at the end and it can not be part of the label. The correct command is echo -n "test" > /sys/fs/btrfs/<fsid>/label This patch will check for this user error Signed-off-by: Anand Jain <Anand.Jain@oracle.com> --- fs/btrfs/sysfs.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/fs/btrfs/sysfs.c b/fs/btrfs/sysfs.c index c5eb214..63c2907 100644 --- a/fs/btrfs/sysfs.c +++ b/fs/btrfs/sysfs.c @@ -374,7 +374,7 @@ static ssize_t btrfs_label_store(struct kobject *kobj, struct btrfs_root *root = fs_info->fs_root; int ret; - if (len >= BTRFS_LABEL_SIZE) { + if (len >= BTRFS_LABEL_SIZE || strchr(buf, '\n')) { pr_err("BTRFS: unable to set label with more than %d bytes\n", BTRFS_LABEL_SIZE - 1); return -EINVAL; -- 1.8.5.3 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
