Package: linux-image Version: 2.6.30 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
Hi, having fun with your 2.6.30 kernel built from source and cifs. Error became visible when kde's konqueror creates a scratch file for a new version of it's bookmarks. In my config the bookmark file is on the server (samba 3.3.6), qt detects this correctly. This is what happens (strace): lstat64("/home", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 lstat64("/home/jpf", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0751, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 lstat64("/home/jpf/.kde", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0700, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 lstat64("/home/jpf/.kde/share", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0750, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 lstat64("/home/jpf/.kde/share/apps", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0750, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 lstat64("/home/jpf/.kde/share/apps/konqueror", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0750, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 lstat64("/home/jpf/.kde/share/apps/konqueror/bookmarks.xml", {st_mode=S_IFLNK|0777, st_size=44, ...}) = 0 readlink("/home/jpf/.kde/share/apps/konqueror/bookmarks.xml", "/home/jpf/Roaming/Profiles/kde/bookmarks.xml"..., 4095) = 44 lstat64("/home", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 lstat64("/home/jpf", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0751, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 lstat64("/home/jpf/Roaming", {st_mode=S_IFLNK|0777, st_size=22, ...}) = 0 readlink("/home/jpf/Roaming", "/data/home/jpf/Roaming"..., 4095) = 22 lstat64("/data", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 lstat64("/data/home", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0775, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 lstat64("/data/home/jpf", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0751, st_size=0, ...}) = 0 lstat64("/data/home/jpf/Roaming", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0700, st_size=0, ...}) = 0 lstat64("/data/home/jpf/Roaming/Profiles", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0700, st_size=0, ...}) = 0 lstat64("/data/home/jpf/Roaming/Profiles/kde", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0750, st_size=0, ...}) = 0 lstat64("/data/home/jpf/Roaming/Profiles/kde/bookmarks.xml", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0640, st_size=22178, ...}) = 0 access("/data/home/jpf/Roaming/Profiles/kde/bookmarks.xml", W_OK) = 0 stat64("/data/home/jpf/Roaming/Profiles/kde", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0750, st_size=0, ...}) = 0 open("/data/home/jpf/Roaming/Profiles/kde/bookmarks.xmlnt2752.new", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_LARGEFILE, 0600) = -1 EEXIST (File exists) open("/data/home/jpf/Roaming/Profiles/kde/bookmarks.xmlot2752.new", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_LARGEFILE, 0600) = -1 EEXIST (File exists) open("/data/home/jpf/Roaming/Profiles/kde/bookmarks.xmlpt2752.new", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_LARGEFILE, 0600) = -1 EEXIST (File exists) open("/data/home/jpf/Roaming/Profiles/kde/bookmarks.xmlqt2752.new", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_LARGEFILE, 0600) = -1 EEXIST (File exists) open("/data/home/jpf/Roaming/Profiles/kde/bookmarks.xmlrt2752.new", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_LARGEFILE, 0600) = -1 EEXIST (File exists) open("/data/home/jpf/Roaming/Profiles/kde/bookmarks.xmlst2752.new", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_LARGEFILE, 0600) = -1 EEXIST (File exists) open("/data/home/jpf/Roaming/Profiles/kde/bookmarks.xmltt2752.new", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_LARGEFILE, 0600) = -1 EEXIST (File exists) At least 512 file get created, the problem is that ext3 seems to limit a dir to 64k entries. This limit was reached on the server side. The problem seems to be CIFS related only. It does not happen with a 2.6.29 kernel. It happens with a 2.6.30 kernel on lenny using kde3 and (please forgive me) on ubuntu jaunty with kde4 (having copied the custom kernel to jaunty). I should mention that also the working 2.6.29 kernel was custom built and that the 2.6.30 config was generted using 'make oldconfig'. Any idea?
