similar to: ac4 ext3 recovery failure

Can someone suggest anything that will help with the following ext3 performance problem? (It's a Berkeley db issue at bottom, but the ext3 part is worth looking at, I think.) First, two paragraphs of background: A Bayesian spam filter called bogofilter uses Berkeley db to maintain two database files of identical format: one containing words found in spam email and for each word the number

Patch against linux-2.4.8 is at http://www.uow.edu.au/~andrewm/linux/ext3/ The only changes here are merging up to 2.4.8 and the bigendian fix. linux-2.4.8-ac1 currently has ext3-0.9.3 which has no known crash-worthy bugs, but is old. I'm about to send Alan a diff which takes -ac up to 0.9.6. The changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.6 may be summarised as: - Simplify the handling of

I've been doing some experiments with the Boost Graph Library (BGL) and interfacing to llvm's GraphWriter system. I'm using GBL for some custom work and needed a way to hook BGL's write_graphviz into GraphWriter to use the existing display infrastructure. To do this I added a HAVE_BOOST configure item and #ifdef'd the Boost support code in GraphWriter. Is this useful to

The first patch will make "make install-strip" work. The second spends a few cycles avoiding "1 files to consider."

Hi, on my linux box (2.4.21-pre4-ac4) I've used rsync to mirror a rather large /usr/local tree (4 Gb) After transmission of many files I get the error message rsync error: some files could not be transferred (code 23) at main.c(1045) According to /usr/include/asm/errno.h the code 23 says File table overflow What can I do about that?

Hi, I created the model below, which returns me the following warning message: In sem.default(ram = ram, S = S, N = N, param.names = pars, var.names = vars, : Could not compute QR decomposition of Hessian.

Doing some debugging of my kernel build with ext3 and noticed something interesting. At the bottom of the rootflags options processing loop there is a return failure if there was an option that ext3 did not know about. Should this be the behaviour? Would it not be better to ignore options not recognized? Surely, some day, some other filesystem is going to want to use rootflags to have one of

Hi all, and particularly Andrew and Stephen, I recently "upgraded' one of my NFS fileservers from (patched)2.4.18 to 2.4.23-pre7 (in order to resolve a HIMEM related memory pressure problem). Unfortunately I have experienced what appears to be a deadlock. The one I will describe was experienced while running 2.4.23-pre7, though I had a very similar problem in 2.4.22 (but

I think I have this one solved, I hope. I think what Andreas and I are running into are a few different assertions. One being the LVM lvm_do_pv_flush caused assertion which is related directly to invalidate_buffers() being called which then triggers refile_buffer() on a journaled buffer, which appears clean in all other ways according to the checks in refile_buffer(). The following is what

Hi Andrew, The patch below addresses the problem we were talking about earlier where ext3_writepage ends up accessing the inode after the page lock has been dropped (and hence at a point where it is possible for the inode to have been reclaimed.) Tested minimally (it builds and boots.) It makes ext3_journal_stop take an sb, not an inode, as its final parameter. It also sets

OpenSSH 2.5.1p1 was compiled on two different Linux machines, both with glibc 2.2, libz-1.1.3 and openssl-0.9.6. Both had been running 2.3.0p1 successfully.

Hello, I think the BUG_TRAP() in the htb_dequeue_tree() is wrong. First it checks if the class pointer "cl" is NULL, which is obviously right. But I do not understand why we also check whenever the queue length of the leaf queue is zero "cl->un.leaf.q->q.qlen". I would have put that in the expression of the "if" statements that comes afterwards. A queue

The BGL (Boost Graph Library) defines tie(), which is exactly what the tie() defined in STLExtras.h. The header files of GBL use boost::tie(), and other boost libraries use boost::tie() too.

Greetings all, I have hit a kernel BUG in revoke.c in kernel 2.4.7-ac7 twice today while attempting to perform the same operation (patching stock 2.4.8 kernel src with "patch -p1 < patch-2.4.8-ac4"). Syslog entries follow. Please email me if you want/need my kernel config or any other information. Thanks, jtp

I'll be generating a new patchset this weekend. Actually if you dont fix recovery.c it will hang the machine when you mount an fs that needs recovering. With the old patches at least umount of ext3 seems fine as is. Alan
