No, ext.len >= sizeof(zoned_ext) is valid. The program can extract the
zoned_ext fields that it knows about. Any additional fields are ignored
by the program because it doesn't know how to interpret them. ext.len <
sizeof(zoned_ext) is invalid because required fields are missing.
When zoned_ext is extended to add a new feature the first time, the code
is updated like this:
if (ext.len < endof(zoned_ext, last_minimum_field)) {
...invalid...
}
...handle minimum zoned_ext fields...
if (ext.len >= endof(zoned_ext, additional_field)) {
...handle additional_field...
}
...more additional fields...
This approach is often used by Linux ioctl(2) interfaces. It allows
extensions to the struct without breaking old programs that still use
shorter versions of the struct.
Only optional features can be added using this approach, so it's often
combined with a 'flags' field that indicates which mandatory features
userspace wants and the kernel has provided. That way the kernel can
reject ioctls that require a new feature that the old kernel doesn't
know and the kernel can fill in flags upon returning from ioctl(2) so
userspace knows which functionality was provided by the kernel. qcow2
has feature bits, so I don't think a 'flags' field is required.
