similar to: ext3fs and 2.4.14 kernel

I just upgraded to kernel 2.4.14 and applied the ext3 patch ext3-2.4-0.9.15-2414.gz. It appears (to me) that the patch breaks the loop block device module (loop.o). The problem is that the call to deactivate_page is unresolved. The routine used to be defined in swap.c. It looks like it no longer exists in 2.4.14. I'm not a kernel programmer so if I'm mistaken, sorry. I do get an

Please CC me as I'm not subscribed. Attached is my kernel configuration. Please forgive me if this is being asked a gazillion times in the list. I'm using the 2.4.14 patch found at http://www.uow.edu.au/~andrewm/linux/ext3/ . ld -m elf_i386 -T /usr/src/linux-2.4.14/arch/i386/vmlinux.lds -e stext arch/i386/kernel/head.o arch/i386/kernel/init_task.o init/main.o init/version.o \

Hello, i have downloaded the kernel 2.4.14 and the correspondig ext3 patch ext3-2.4-0.9.15-2414.gz. After this i extract the archiv at /usr/src, renamed the dir linux to linux-2.4.14 and made a symlink linux-2.4. I changed to the directory linux-2.4 and add the patch as decsribed on the website gunzip < ~/ext3-2.4-0.9.15-2414.gz | patch -p1. There was no error and the patch was successful.

Hey, Thanks for sending me the patch Wiktor, but I was looking for the patch ext3-2.4-0.9.15-2414.gz . If someone has that let me know. Does it work well with kernel 2.4.14 (any installation issues ?) . Why can't I download from http://www.uow.edu.au/~andrewm/linux/ext3 page. If someone can zip the gz patch and email it to me that would be awesome. My email client acts up sometimes.

This maybe early, but is there an ext3fs patch for the 2.4.16 kernel -- also, in general where does one download the lastest ext3fs patches?? I found the 2.4.14 patch a few weeks ago on in the linux.org UK site, but all the patches appear to be taken off that site...Any help would be most appreciated... Thanks, Chris --------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi, i'd like to upgrade my kernel to 2.4.14. I've obtained the corresponding kernel patch from http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/ext3/ however when I run gunzip < ~/ext3-2.4-0.9.15-2414.gz | patch -p1 I am told that this file is not in gzip format. This is based on the file and instructions on ext3 for 2.4 site. Am I missing something? cheers Simon

Hello, I use Samba 4.4.7 on a Debian testing with bind9.9.5_DLZ. I have a DC and a test-station windows7. The execution of the login.bat was working fine and it stopped working suddently. Here is my krb5.conf : [libdefaults] default_realm = MYDOMAIN.XXX.XXX dns_lookup_realm = false dns_lookup_kdc = true Here is my smb.conf : [global] netbios name = MAMACHINE realm = MONDOMAIN.XXX.XXX

Hi, Since upgrading to 2.4.14 with the ext3 patch, I've been getting the following on bootup: VFS: Mounted root (ext3 filesystem) readonly. change_root: old root has d_count=5 Trying to unmount old root ... invalidate: busy buffer invalidate: busy buffer invalidate: busy buffer invalidate: busy buffer invalidate: busy buffer okay Is the invalidate busy buffer bit anything to worry about?

Tried to convert a 60 gig ext2 disk to ext3. Used tune2fs version 1.22 (it said). The filesystem refused to be converted with that version. Upgraded to 1.25 of e2fsprogs and the problem went away. My two cents. /Benjamin

Good morning, I try to use the last release of ext3 patch with a 2.4.10 linux kernel.

Freeing unused kernel memory: 208k freed Adding Swap: 128480k swap-space (priority -1) Adding Swap: 128480k swap-space (priority -2) Why my root

Didn't hear back from anyone regarding if there is a way to determine if I am running the ext3fs with htree. Is there a way I can do it without checking the src code since I am running the precompired redhat kernel with 8.0? Perhaps an entry under /proc somewhere?

Good evening. We have some heavy-loaded servers on ext2, and we want to migrate to ext3fs. But we need full and stable quota support. I have headrd that there are some problems in quota usage under ext3fs. Is it true? Should we decline the ext3 usage as impossible in our servers? We need high-level stability in our server (hosting). Thanks before. -- Best regards,

I'm NOT the authority here, but AFAIK, Htree is presently available only as a patch for 2.4 kernels (which includes RH8). I think that Htree was still beta code at the time RH8 was frozen (and may still be, from RedHat's perspective). I do not have the impression that the Htree patch has been applied in any standard RedHat kernels or kernel updates. I hope I am wrong, and that

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

Andreas was kind enough to point out that not neccesarily all ext3fs have htrees ready to go. I am running redhat8.0 out of the box. How can I check if ext3fs with htrees is running? I can download the kernel source, but I don't know what options were used when it was built by redhat. Thanks much for all of your help. -Parker -----Original Message----- From: Andreas Dilger

I am trying to determine the optimal filesystem for accessing large numbers of files (25,000+) in a single directory. I have read that ext3fs uses a sequential search algorithm and wanted to verify that this was still indeed the case since this article was published a year ago. http://bulmalug.net/body.phtml?nIdNoticia=1154 <http://bulmalug.net/body.phtml?nIdNoticia=1154&nIdPage=7>

Hi, I have ext3 installed against the 2.2.19 kernel. I am able to make the ext3 file system and mount it. I am not able to install the ext3fs for kernel-2.4.5 . I am unable to add the ext3 patch to the kernel. In the directory ~andrewm/linux/ext3/, which is the patch for 2.4.5 kernel. ( I can only see the patches for 2.4.6 and 2.4.7 ). Also, is there any prescribed pattern for

Does redhat 9 come with htree optimizations for ext3fs?
