Wow, you have to admit it is quite ironic that you felt the urge to close the bug because I did not answer in five days, while it took five months to have a first answer .
Anyway, I have some additionnal information. I have discovered that this was a permission issue, the user on the remote system did not have write permissions on the partition. Still this should not trigger the freezes I've been having. I'll try with a more recent kernel as soon as I get some time to look into this. Hope it helps, Regards, -- Florian On Sat, Sep 3, 2011 at 4:42 PM, Debian Bug Tracking System < [email protected]> wrote: > This is an automatic notification regarding your Bug report > which was filed against the aufs-tools package: > > #616371: fuse fs as rw branch results in freeze > > It has been closed by Daniel Baumann < > [email protected]> (reply to > [email protected]). > > Their explanation is attached below along with your original report. > If this explanation is unsatisfactory and you have not received a > better one in a separate message then please contact Daniel Baumann < > [email protected]> (reply to > [email protected]) by > replying to this email. > > > -- > 616371: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=616371 > Debian Bug Tracking System > Contact [email protected] with problems > > > ---------- Forwarded message ---------- > From: Daniel Baumann <[email protected]> > To: [email protected] > Date: Sat, 03 Sep 2011 16:40:13 +0200 > Subject: Re: fuse fs as rw branch results in freeze > no answer so far, unreproducible for me, closing. > > -- > Address: Daniel Baumann, Donnerbuehlweg 3, CH-3012 Bern > Email: > daniel.baumann@progress-**technologies.net<[email protected]> > Internet: http://people.progress-**technologies.net/~daniel.** > baumann/ <http://people.progress-technologies.net/%7Edaniel.baumann/> > > > > ---------- Forwarded message ---------- > From: "Florian Vallée" <[email protected]> > To: [email protected] > Date: Thu, 3 Mar 2011 22:31:29 +0100 > Subject: aufs-tools: Using a FUSE fs as an rw aufs branch results in system > freeze > Package: aufs-tools > Version: 20100601-1 > Severity: important > > Description : > Using an sshfs as the source of an rw branch for aufs results > in frozen system > > Steps to reproduce : > * sshfs [email protected]:/sshfs /sshfs -o allow_other > * mount -t aufs -o br:/sshfs=rw /mnt > > As a result the following message is displayed and the system freezes : > > [ 71.177502] aufs: module is from the staging directory, the quality > is unknown, you have been warned. > [ 71.181635] aufs 2-standalone.tree-32-20100125 > [ 71.195256] aufs au_wh_init:536:mount[1065]: an error(-13) on the > writable branch /(fuse) > [ 71.240885] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference > at 0000000000000010 > [ 71.240899] IP: [<ffffffff811021a3>] __lookup_mnt+0x3a/0x4b > [ 71.240911] PGD 75550067 PUD 75551067 PMD 0 > [ 71.240919] Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP > [ 71.240926] last sysfs file: /sys/devices/virtual/bdi/0:17/uevent > [ 71.240933] CPU 1 > [ 71.240937] Modules linked in: aufs(C) fuse snd_pcm snd_timer snd > soundcore snd_page_alloc pcspkr evdev ext4 mbcache jbd2 crc16 raid1 > md_mod xen_netfront xen_blkfront > [ 71.240973] Pid: 1065, comm: mount Tainted: G C 2.6.32-5-amd64 > #1 > [ 71.240979] RIP: e030:[<ffffffff811021a3>] [<ffffffff811021a3>] > __lookup_mnt+0x3a/0x4b > [ 71.240989] RSP: e02b:ffff880077bffa78 EFLAGS: 00010207 > [ 71.240995] RAX: 0000000000000000 RBX: ffff8800744cb3c0 RCX: > 0000000000000004 > [ 71.241002] RDX: ffff88007ff22470 RSI: 03fffe2001d132cf RDI: > 07fffc4001dcbc8b > [ 71.241008] RBP: ffff880002e26f00 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: > 0000000000000001 > [ 71.241015] R10: 0000000000000008 R11: ffffffff81152c3a R12: > 0000000000000001 > [ 71.241021] R13: ffff880077bffbd8 R14: 0000000000000003 R15: > ffff880077bffb28 > [ 71.241032] FS: 00007f84311977e0(0000) GS:ffff8800035c8000(0000) > knlGS:0000000000000000 > [ 71.241040] CS: e033 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 000000008005003b > [ 71.241046] CR2: 0000000000000010 CR3: 00000000754bd000 CR4: > 0000000000002660 > [ 71.241053] DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: > 0000000000000000 > [ 71.241060] DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000ffff0ff0 DR7: > 0000000000000400 > [ 71.241066] Process mount (pid: 1065, threadinfo ffff880077bfe000, > task ffff88007556a350) > [ 71.241073] Stack: > [ 71.241077] ffff880077bffb38 0000000000000000 ffff880077bffb38 > ffffffff811028db > [ 71.241087] <0> ffff8800744cb3c0 ffffffff810f5ff5 ffff8800744cb3c0 > ffff880077bffbd8 > [ 71.241099] <0> ffff88007bb4d7d0 ffffffff810f6191 ffff880077bffb38 > ffff880077bffb38 > [ 71.241113] Call Trace: > [ 71.241120] [<ffffffff811028db>] ?
