Hi, my program works well with fedora-2 .with fedora-5 it's gives following errors.. get_it_i_say.c:549: warning: implicit declaration of function 'strcmp' cc -o giis dir.o file.o get_it_i_say.o group.o init.o inode.o main.o searchnupdate.o uninit.o inode.o: In function `read_inode':inode.c:(.text+0x202): undefined reference to `S_ISDIR' inode.o: In function

Hi, I've recently installed ext3 on an 800MB RAID5 (software) array. I am running RedHat Linux 7.1 with the Linux kernel 2.4.12-ac3 on a 1GHz Pentium system with 128MB RAM. I am seeing a significant amount of write operation slowdown when running ext3 (and kjournald), as opposed to my old ext2. The problem seems to be associated with the times that kjournald is accessing the disk. At

(Sent to linux-raid, linux-kernel and ext3-users since I'm not sure what type of issue this is) I've got a test system here running Redhat 7.1 + stock 2.4.9 with these patches: http://www.fys.uio.no/~trondmy/src/2.4.9/linux-2.4.9-NFS_ALL.dif http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/ext3-2.4-0.9.6-249.gz http://domsch.com/linux/aacraid/linux-2.4.9-aacraid-20010816.patch All three patches applied

While investigating erratic performance on one our our servers, I'm getting some very odd performance stats coming from vmstat. What initially appeared to be happening is the machine goes into a hard loop in some mod_perl webserver code. Now there still may be an issue with the code, but my code examinations show no possible way this could be happening, but what I'm writing to you

Hi, I am getting the following Oops on 2.6.30.1 kernel. The bad part is, it happens rarely (twice in last 1.5 months) and the system is pretty lightly loaded when this happens (no heavy file/disk io). Any insights or patches that I can try? (i searched lkml and ext3 lists but could not find any similar oops/reports). == Oops =================== BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer

I'm getting oops whenever I pull a big file off of an ext3 filesystem on my large LV. The kernel this comes from happens to have lvm 1.0.2 and posix ACL for ext2/3 patched in, but I get the crash even on vanilla 2.4.17. kymoops 2.4.3 on i686 2.4.17-acl-lvm. Options used -V (default) -k /proc/ksyms (default) -l /proc/modules (default) -o /lib/modules/2.4.17-acl-lvm/

Hello, we have just observed a rather annoying behavior one of our servers. Specifically, when writing data to a file on an ext3fs filesystem at around 1.5 MB/sec, network connectivity suddently started to show signs of lag. The ping would spike up to ~1 second every 5 seconds or so. This affects the server in question and all hosts routing traffic through it (i.e., it's not a userland-only

We run several RH7.2/7.3 servers & recently 2 of them, although still working fine, have started to show kjournald as generally using over 50% cpu% on 'top' - virtually continuously. Free cpu% generally less than 25% now! Both machines are also using software RAID5 EIDE ....... otherwise are standard server installs. Any info on what kjournald is & why it should have recently

I have a NFS server with stock 2.4.20 patched with the 5 data=journal patches, plus the 2.4 LSM and NSA's selinux. The partition is mounted with the options: rw,noatime,nosuid,nodev,data=journal,errors=remount-ro The oops seems to happen when the fs is under load. I don't think I encountered this behavior with a non LSM/selinux kernel, so it may have something to do with those, but I

kernel version 2.6.10-1.771_FC2smp We have had quite a few instances of kjournald pegging cpu and thereby effectively knocking out the system's i/o. What can we do to provide more information so that the cause can be identified and fixed? Thanks Christopher

Hello List, Running 2.4.21-pre3-ac1 SMP with new quotas (usr and grp), this oops showed up while copying a large amount (about 50gigs, only 1.6 made it before the oops).

Hi, If this is a redundant post I apologize. I am running 2.4.20 on what has been a very stable Athlon machine for months, tried to move a 2 GB file from an ext2 partition to an ext3 and kjournald crashed.

I've tried to find my answer to this question but I have not (yet). Any assistance or expert knowledge is greatly appreciated! PROBLEM: mounting an ext3 volume 'read only' results in a different md5sum hash value for the volume than when the same volume is *not* mounted SCENARIO: - when I hash unmounted /dev/hda5 using 'md5sum /dev/hda5' I get value XXX. - when I hash

I am getting an odd situation when backing up a number of ext3 filesystems and was wondering if it could be caused by journalling. Over the space of a minute the load average will jump from 2 to over 40 and the system will be unresponsive for anywhere from 8 to 25 minutes. I am going to be trying a number of things, but was wondering if anyone could see the reason for the high load given the

All, I am running into a situation in which one of my ext3 filesystems is getting hung during normal usage. There are three ext3 filesystems on a CompactFLASH. One is mounted as / and one as /tmp. In my test, I am copying a 100 MB file from /root to /tmp repeatedly. While doing this test, I eventually see the copying stop, and any attempts to access /tmp fail - if I even do ls /tmp the

Hello everybody, Could someone please explain to me what is the difference between kjournald and jbd (precisely, what does each of them do?) Thank you, Alina _________________________________________________________________ Chat with friends online, try MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com

Hi, I've got a Redhat 7.2 system: Celeron 400 512MB RAM 18GB SCSI HD (/boot (ext2fs), / (ext3fs)) 40GB IDE HD (/ (ext3fs)) I run a bunch of services on the box (apache + mod_perl, MYSQL, Samba, etc) but the system is not under heavy load. This system has performance issues reading/writing to the ext3fs filesystems. The performance issues cropped up when I installed Redhat 7.2. Previously
