You are right, sorry. qemu_iovec_concat didn't do what I thought it
would. In that case, I think we need to change v9fs_init_qiov_from_pdu
(in addition to the changes already in this patch):
@@ -1659,12 +1659,14 @@ static void v9fs_init_qiov_from_pdu(QEMUIOVector *qiov,
V9fsPDU *pdu,
if (is_write) {
pdu->s->transport->init_out_iov_from_pdu(pdu, &iov, &niov);
} else {
- pdu->s->transport->init_in_iov_from_pdu(pdu, &iov, &niov, size);
+ pdu->s->transport->init_in_iov_from_pdu(pdu, &iov, &niov, size + skip);
}
The reason is the same as before: iov needs to have offset+read_count
bytes in it, for qemu_iovec_concat to skip offset and iov still have
read_count bytes left.
