hi, is this rpms differ from redhat's rawhide 2.4.5 kernel which seems to contain ext3. so my question that your rpm contain different ext3 than rh's rpm? or I can simple use rh's rawhide rpms? thanks. yours. ps. please reply to my private address to since I'm not on the list. thanks. > Hi, > > Mostly for my own use, I prepared two kernel RPM's with Ext3 in them.

ext3 patches against kernels 2.4.5, 2.4.6-pre5 and 2.4.5-ac17 are available at http://www.uow.edu.au/~andrewm/linux/ext3/ Almost all testing thus far has been against 2.4.5. Known problems in 0.0.8 are: - A theoretical deadlock with quotas in -ac. This is proving impossible to demonstrate, and will be fixed in 0.0.9. - A fairly straightforward deadlock with quotas in 2.4.5[-pre]. This

Hi, I've tried to compile an ext3 extended 2.4.5 kernel but I got no luck. After applying the ext3 patch from the gkernel/ext3 (download today) (symlinks are created) I run into following problem: gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/local/src/kernel/linux-2.4.5-ext3cvs/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -march=i686 -DEXPORT_SYMTAB -c ksyms.c

Hi. I just installed ext3 for 2.4.5 from http://www.uow.edu.au/~andrewm/linux/ext3/ but couldn't find anything about converting my root partition to ext3. 2 partitions are now ext3 after I umount and tune2fs, but what should I do with / ? I tried init 1 and umount, but tune2fs would fail because it was on read-only fs. Another question is if I can now build ext2 as a module, and if it's

I just booted 2.5-bk current as of last night with the below patch¹ (which was recently posted to ext3-users) that un-static-ifies a struct dx_frame in namei.c. I then did my best torture test for the brelse bug: starting gnus (3600+ nnmh folders² with a total of XXX messages; it does a readdir on each of those folders) while doing bk consistancy checks in 2.5 and/or 2.4 kernel trees.

Hallo! Is it possible to use ext3 with kernel 2.4.5? If so where can I find the sources? On redhat´s site I can only find souces for kernel 2.2.x.

Hi, We hit an interesting issue with Ext3 in ordered data mode. A large file was truncated (open with O_TRUNC) and immediately over-written with a single write call. The write call returned ENOSPACE, but a check for space (using essentially statfs) promised that there would be plenty of space. The reason turned out to be that the blocks freed by the truncation were not yet available to the

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

Hello, I recently switched from 2.2 to 2.4 kernel. Each partition already contains a journal. I tried kernel-2.4.5-0.2.9 from RedHat Rawhide, where ext3/jbd is modularized. For the people who want to try this kernel, you first need to rebuild it, and enable CONFIG_JBD_DEBUG. This solves an unresolved symbol in jbd.o which prevents ext3 to load. (This issue will be solved in next RawHide) My

Hi Stephen, We had some starvation/locks happening to us under very heavy load in two cases: - InterMezzo asked ext3 to do a journaled file write (for 1 block) essentially using ext3_write - similarly for truncate. These lockups went away when we started the transaction in InterMezzo and reserved somewhat more space than ext3 does. Any clues as to what this might be? Are the ext3

I am running a RH6/7ish system on an abit bp6 with 2.4-test12 -smp running rock solid. I have a new drive that I want to use to test out a journa;ing file system on, and thus far have not been happy with reiserfs and have been waiting for ext3 on 2.4 (I had been considering xfs as an alternative but from what i've read it's a little too robust for my needs). Anyway, I guess I am

An update of the ext3 journalling filesystem for 2.4 kernels is available at http://www.uow.edu.au/~andrewm/linux/ext3/ Patches are against 2.4.6-ac1 and 2.4.6. Changes since 0.0.8 include: - Multiplied the version numbering by ten to cater for bugfix releases against the 0.9.0 stream. - The main thrust has been the removal of a number of changes in the core kernel which were required

I have compiled 2.4.5 and patched the src rpms for e2fsprogs01.20 and util-linux 2.11b. I can boot with ext3 as my filesystem type in fstab and fsck doesn't seem to mind it or ext3,ext2 but mount from util-linux chokes on having ext3,ext2 in fstab during bootup or later manually. Anyone have any ideas? I am running RedHat 7.1 Thanks, Bill -- Bill Vinson <billvinson@nc.rr.com>
