I looked into this problem earlier. The problem is that zfs does not
return ERANGE when the size of value buffer passed to getxattr is too

Is this a bug in ZFS, or simply different behavior?
Took a brief look at the zfs code, seems like a zfs bug.

This should fix it. Not tested of course.
Well, looking at the code again it's not going to work, as setxattr is
going to fail with ERANGE.

That does sounds like a zfs bug, According to getxattr(2) it should
return ERANGE if the buffer is too small. I'll take a look but it's
strange that this hasn't surfaced before.
If the size of the value buffer is too small to hold the
result, errno is set to ERANGE.
Thanks,
Brian
