afs: Fix "kAFS: AFS vnode with undefined type 0"
Under some circumstances afs_select_fileserver() can return without setting an error in fc->error. The problem is in the no_more_servers segment where the accumulated errors from attempts to contact various servers are integrated into an afs_error-type variable 'e'. The resultant error code is, however, then abandoned. Fix this by getting the error out of e.error and putting it in 'error' so that the next part will store it into fc->error. Not doing this causes a report like the following: kAFS: AFS vnode with undefined type 0 kAFS: A=0 m=0 s=0 v=0 kAFS: vnode 20000025:1:1 because the code following the server selection loop then sees what it thinks is a successful invocation because fc.error is 0. However, it can't apply the status record because it's all zeros. The report is followed on the first instance with a trace looking something like: dump_stack+0x67/0x8e afs_inode_init_from_status.isra.2+0x21b/0x487 afs_fetch_status+0x119/0x1df afs_iget+0x130/0x295 afs_get_tree+0x31d/0x595 vfs_get_tree+0x1f/0xe8 fc_mount+0xe/0x36 afs_d_automount+0x328/0x3c3 follow_managed+0x109/0x20a lookup_fast+0x3bf/0x3f8 do_last+0xc3/0x6a4 path_openat+0x1af/0x236 do_filp_open+0x51/0xae ? _raw_spin_unlock+0x24/0x2d ? __alloc_fd+0x1a5/0x1b7 do_sys_open+0x13b/0x1e8 do_syscall_64+0x7d/0x1b3 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x49/0xbe Fixes: 4584ae96ae30 ("afs: Fix missing net error handling") Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
