AIUI READDIR reads into the directory inode's page cache. I recall that Frank couldn't do that for LISTXATTR because there's no similar page cache associated with the xattr listing. That said, I would prefer that the *XATTR procedures directly allocate pages instead of relying on SPARSE_PAGES, which is a hack IMO. I think it would have to use alloc_page() for that, and then ensure those pages are released when the call has completed. I'm not convinced this is the cause of the problem you're seeing, though. -- Chuck Lever
