From 15e2721b19acb1bfb18ac90775503b75d8aecbb2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christian Schoenebeck Date: Thu, 30 Dec 2021 14:23:18 +0100 Subject: net/9p: show error message if user 'msize' cannot be satisfied If user supplied a large value with the 'msize' option, then client would silently limit that 'msize' value to the maximum value supported by transport. That's a bit confusing for users of not having any indication why the preferred 'msize' value could not be satisfied.
