I have fixed the error in ntea.cc handling the return value of
NTQueryEaFile. This patch is only needed for the 1.5 release. Maybe this
error should be considered as critical due to uninitialized stack usage
of the variable fea when the function returned an error.

* ntea.cc (read_ea): Fix error handling and avoid using
uninitialized stack.

I think this error is located in the cygwin/ntea.cc read_ea function.
NtQueryEaFile fails due to unsupported extended attributes on fat32 and
iso9660 and ret is set to -1. After setting ret to -1 the function
checks fea->EaValueLength which is in my case 8313 (see log) due to an
uninitialized stack and read_ea return 8313. Now the calling function
(fhandler_base::fstat_helper) is using the uninitialized data for the
timestamp and file size and returns incorrect values.
This error doesn't happen on the new 1.7 release, but I need a solution
for the stable version.
if (!NT_SUCCESS (status))
{
ret = -1;
debug_printf ("%x = NtQueryEaFile (%s, %s), Win32 error %d",
status, file, attrname, RtlNtStatusToDosError
(status));
}
if (!fea->EaValueLength)
ret = 0;
else
{
memcpy (attrbuf, fea->EaName + fea->EaNameLength + 1,
fea->EaValueLength);
ret = fea->EaValueLength;
}

Hi,
I have encountered a problem while listening the content of a CD. When
I call "ls -l /cygdrive/d" the file size and creation/modification
time is corrupted. This also happens on usb sticks formatted with
fat32. Only ntfs formatted filesystems have the correct listening.
Attached is a strace log calling the function fstat on a file located
on the specified filesystem.
