similar to: [PATCH] btrfs-progs: make btrfs dev scan multi path aware

Hi all, the commands "btrfs filesystem show" and "btrfs device scan" look at the /dev directory (and it subdirectories) for every block devices. This is a slow process because floppy and cdrom are also checked. Moreover, as highlighted by Helmut, if udev is not used, the /dev directory is populated by high number of non-existant devices, which slow the process. My patch

Hi Slight problem - linux 2.4 running dovecot, Solaris 2.8 home directory server. Full lockd support etc. I had to make the following code patches (at end of mail for clarity) to get dovecot to read the users mbox files at all. 1) fcntl with F_SETLKW will not work against a Solaris 2.8 server as proved with a small test program. Other forms of fcntl (ie F_SETLK) are OK. I noticed there are

Hi all, I fear I can't rely on "open (path, O_CREAT | O_EXCL)" behaviour on samba share. The libc's doc says: If both `O_CREAT' and `O_EXCL' are set, then `open' fails if the specified file already exists. This is guaranteed to never clobber an existing file. But this isn't probably true on network filesystems. When I run this tiny program on

If there''s is a long name directory exists in the /dev, then an overflow will hit in function utils.c btrfs_scan_one_dir:1013! The minimal fix is to use snprintf instead of strcpy. The reason why not using strncpy is that, if there is no null byte among the first n bytes of src, the string placed in dest will not be null - terminated. Signed-off-by: Rock Lee

Today, rsyncd manages its pid file by open()ing it with O_CREAT|O_EXCL at startup, and then unlink()ing it at shutdown. If the open() fails at startup because the file already exists, then rsyncd will assume another instance of itself is already running and not start. However, there's a problem with this approach: if rsyncd is terminated without being able to clean up (e.g., kill -9, or the

All - I''ve put together a new integration branch based on Chris''s new master. This includes the userspace patches for qgroups, restriper, and Josef''s restore utility, plus a bunch of other things with mostly minor impact. The shortlog is attached at the end of this email. As always, it''s available from:

If I scan I device with a btrfs with -A, it finds it: (~/btrfs-progs-unstable) sudo ./btrfsctl -A /dev/sda5 operation complete Btrfs v0.19-1-g4f89b6e-dirty But when I do a "scan all devices", it can''t find my btrfs on /dev/sda5: (~/btrfs-progs-unstable) sudo ./btrfsctl -a Scanning for Btrfs filesystems failed to read /dev/sr0 I''m using btrfs-progs-unstable version

I have attached a patch that supports a new "--direct-write" option. The result of using this option is to write directly to the destination files, instead of a temporary file first. The reason this patch is needed is for rsyncing to a device where the device is full or nearly full. Say that I am writing to a device that has 1 Meg free, and a 2 meg file on that device is out of date.

Hello, when I do: /opt/rsync/bin/rsync /etc/hosts targethost::bkp/ I get: cannot create .hosts.b0WX1x : File exists I check the targethost and I get empty file .hosts.b0WX1x When trying with other targethost-s it works, but on this one it doesn't. On the other targethosts I have exactly the same LinuX distribution, permissions and users than on the problem targethost. I have exactly the

Hi, on AIX, mkstemp doesn't open a file with the O_LARGEFILE option, so you can't transfer files > 2GB to an AIX machine. Here is a fix: diff -c -r rsync-2.5.6.orig/syscall.c rsync-2.5.6/syscall.c *** rsync-2.5.6.orig/syscall.c Sun Jan 26 21:09:02 2003 --- rsync-2.5.6/syscall.c Wed May 14 13:55:15 2003 *************** *** 151,157 **** if (dry_run) return -1; if

Hi, I need to to open existing readonly files. Yes you are right, not the open call takes the time, but stat() system call. I looked at aio_pthread source, the lines which needs to be removed to make it work are just the lines which tests for O_CREAT|O_EXCL? What problems can cause such solution for readonly share?

Hi there, I was wondering if someone can assist with clarifying why O_EXCL does not always work with NFS. Is it related to NFS protocol version support or export permissions mode out of the Celerra/Netapp ( e.g: mixed mode, unix file permissions ? ) Please advise. Thanks. Regards, new dovecot user.

Dear List, I'm trying to get diff/removed data and it's offset out. So I write a functions in receive_data. When I run backup, I found there is a weird behavior which I don't understand. i = recv_token(f_in, &data) will receive (i = -1, offset2 = 0) some where in the middle of the transfer procedure. That's to say, it's going to transfer the first data block from sender,

I found something interesting via strace. lda is writing a timestamp with utime before doign the fsync, but I'm really not a C guy, so I have no idea why that's going on via procmail and not via commandline. I assume it's related to the choice of pread64 vs read. when called from commandline (working): read(0, "July 14-20, 2013\n10 courses. Bon"..., 4096) = 4096

I removed the O_CREAT|O_EXCL checks and added check to exclude O_DIRECTORY, but it is not working, opening of files fails and I don't know why. I can see in strace logs that openat syscall in vfs_aio_pthread was successful, but it still fails and this messages are logged: [2016/04/28 13:28:59.691782, 5, pid=5623, effective(32697, 10513), real(32697, 0)]

While doing migration, sometimes found suspend lock file was not unlinked in previous operations, then there is an obsolete lock file in place, which causes the current and later migration cannot get lock. That happens seldomly but do happen. After checking the source code, I found there are some places that potentially cause lock file unlinked, including: 1) in lock_suspend_event() function,
