David Howells a2f611a3dc afs: Fix getting the afs.fid xattr
The AFS3 FID is three 32-bit unsigned numbers and is represented as three
up-to-8-hex-digit numbers separated by colons to the afs.fid xattr.
However, with the advent of support for YFS, the FID is now a 64-bit volume
number, a 96-bit vnode/inode number and a 32-bit uniquifier (as before).
Whilst the sprintf in afs_xattr_get_fid() has been partially updated (it
currently ignores the upper 32 bits of the 96-bit vnode number), the size
of the stack-based buffer has not been increased to match, thereby allowing
stack corruption to occur.

Fix this by increasing the buffer size appropriately and conditionally
including the upper part of the vnode number if it is non-zero.  The latter
requires the lower part to be zero-padded if the upper part is non-zero.

Fixes: 3b6492df41 ("afs: Increase to 64-bit volume ID and 96-bit vnode ID for YFS")

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
