** Description changed:
Binary package hint: samba
I noticed that after upgrade from linux-image-2.6.29 to linux-
image-2.6.32-4-generic some programs that recursively scan directories
(like mpd, xmms2 or gqview) stopped working on samba shares. They simply
doesn't see the mountpoint (e.g. if I mount //server/share on
/mnt/mountpoint and navigate gqview to /mnt it does not see mountpoint
subdirectory). I suspect that this is somehow connected with strange
behavior of stat() system call. The following code
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <unistd.h>
int main(int argc, char* argv[]){
- struct stat stat_buf;
- if (argc != 2)
- exit(-1);
- if (stat(argv[1], &stat_buf) != 0){
- perror(NULL);
- exit(-1);
- }
- return 0;
+ struct stat stat_buf;
+ if (argc != 2)
+ exit(-1);
+ if (stat(argv[1], &stat_buf) != 0){
+ perror(NULL);
+ exit(-1);
+ }
+ return 0;
}
fails on samba shares (e.g. if I try to execute ./a.out /mnt/mountpoint
I get "Value too large for defined data type").
