I'm pretty sure that's the same problem that's been reported a few times here, could you try again after cherry-picking this commit: commit f15844e0777fec936f87a87f97394f83911dacd3 Author: Dominique Martinet <dominique.marti...@cea.fr> Date: Wed May 21 10:02:12 2014 +0200 9P: fix return value in v9fs_fid_xattr_set v9fs_fid_xattr_set is supposed to return 0 on success. This corrects the behaviour introduced in commit bdd5c28dcb8330b9074404cc92a0b83aae5606a "9p: fix return value in case in v9fs_fid_xattr_set()" (The function returns a negative error on error, as expected) Signed-off-by: Dominique Martinet <dominique.marti...@cea.fr> Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <eri...@gmail.com> It has gotten in in v3.16-rc1, so your 3.15.0+ proably doesn't have it. Cheers, -- Dominique
