Hi Vladimir,
pam_mktemp can work on filesystem which does not support ext2's file attributes.
For example, it works well on tmpfs.
For pam_mktemp to recognize the case and work without attributes,
the filesystem should return 'ENOTTY' (Inappropriate ioctl for device)
as a result of an setting/getting attributes call, as it tmpfs does.
But reiser4 returns 'ENOSYS' (Function not implemented).
Will you accept patch changing this code to 'ENOTTY'?
yes

I have a problem with reiser4.
Recently I have installed Altlinux Compact-rc2 on reiserfs (v3.6),
patched kernel 2.6.12 with patch 2.6.12-mm2, created new reiser4
partition hda6 and copied by #cp -ax / /mnt/hda6 there. Fixed /etc/fstab
and /boot/grub for new partition and booted. And could not login, with
messages in virtual consoles :
---
pam_tcb[8386]: login: Authentication passed for root from (uid=0)
Login incorrect
---
So I rebooted in original on reiserfs 3.6, edited
/mnt/hda6/etc/inittab to change one of "/sbin/mingetty tty6" to be
"/bin/bash" and after reboot to reiser4 based system saw, that the
problem in pam_mktemp, by commenting out string # account required
pam_mktemp.so
in file /etc/pam.d/system_auth the problem get fixed. Also it get
fixed if I create some non-reiser4 partition to place /tmp on it.
Thanks for the report.
The problem is that reiser4 does not support ext2's file attributes
pam_mktemp deals with.
Maybe reiser4 should have support for that like reiserfs, but now it
does not.
