   o news
   - a new branch aufs3.9 is created, and aufs3.x-rcN is for linux-3.10.
   - aufs3-linux.git on SourceForge is unstable and unreliable. Until it
 calm down, try git://github.com/sfjro/aufs3-linux.git instead.
   o enhancement
   - the simple linked list for the aufs pseudo-link is restructured, and
 it becomes a very simple hashed list.

Re: aufs3.0 .. aufs3.5 will end

2013-03-28 Thread kirk w

   The latest kernel and the latest long term kernel should be plenty. Anyone
   building a new system using AUFS would probably use one of those.
   Users with older kernels, are usually using them on systems that have been
   around for awhile. The kernels are not being maintained (except for long
   term), and any problems that AUFS causes should have been seen long ago.
   I'm just happy to have AUFS.  Hopefully the kernel folks will merge AUFS and
   not something half baked.
   Thanks for your work,
   Kirk

Re: Kernel oops with cifs

2011-08-15 Thread kirk w
Hi Junjiro,

I'm don't think it's a AUFS problem. See:

https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/8/15/121

And during 3.0rcX there were cifs problems that would cause a oops. It's very 
difficult to get any information when it crashes, only once could I save some 
logs. I'll wait for the 3.0.2 kernel and test with that. Sorry for the noise. 

Thanks for your work. Hopefully Al and the other kernel folks will merge AUFS.

Regards,

Kirk

   I think I ran into a bug with the 3.0 kernel and
 AUFS. All seems fine until you try to do a cifs mount, then
 the kernel crashes:
     :::
  Thank you for report.
  I'll try by myself and also read cifs code when I have
 time.
 
 Hi,
 
 I have just tried it, and both of ls -l and getfattr
 worked.
 Will you give me more infromation? such as
 - /proc/mounts (instead of the output of mount(8))
 - /sys/module/aufs/*
 - /sys/fs/aufs/* (if you have them)
 - /debug/aufs/* (if you have them)
 
 And I don't know about ROX-Filer at all. Additionally your
 stack trace
 is unreliable, and it doesn't tell me the trigger is
 listxattr(2) or
 lstat(2). It may be lstat(2), I guess. But which file did
 ROX-Filer
 issues lstat(2) for? Was it a file on cifs (via aufs)?
 
 By the way, I found a bug in cifs in linux-3.0 which may
 cause memory
 corruption. But I am not sure it is related to your
 problem.
 I will post a patch if it is not fixed yet.
 
 Could you separate or identify the problem comes from aufs
 or cifs?

Re: aufs2-util compile problem - fresh origin/aufs2.1

2011-07-27 Thread kirk w
A question related to this. Normally if you replace the kernel headers you need 
to rebuild glibc, gcc ... Is it OK to install the kernel headers in a build 
environment so we can build the AUFS utils and then move those utils to a 
system built with different kernel headers? I've been assuming the answer is 
yes, it seems to work.

 Serge Leschinsky:
  I did make headers_install. Just to be sure that
 it's not the root cause, I 
  did it one more time:
 
 Then did you specify the correct header path?
 make headers_install _modifies_ aufs_type.h, and installs
 it to
 ./usr/include/linux or the directory you specified for
 make.
 And you need to specify the path where the processed
 aufs_type.h
 installed for cc.

Re: a report around squashfs for livecd

Hi Junjiro,

I enjoyed your paper Filesystems in LiveCD. I'm interested in your squashfs 
parallel decompression patch. Any chance you have a newer version of the patch, 
maybe for 2.6.38rc?

Thanks,

 I hope all of you are enjoying this holiday season.
 Actually so am I.
 So here is my small report about squashfs for livecd.
 
 If anyone makes a request, I will put them in
 aufs2-util.git/sample or

2.6.36

Hi Junjiro,

Does AUFS2.1 support 2.6.36? I tried a couple weeks ago and it would not 
compile.

Thanks for your excellent software,

Hope this doesn't double post, it bounced back the first time.

Logrow

Logrow --- try3

2009-03-31 Thread kirk w

Hi,

Has anyone used Logrow on a mounted AUFS RW branch? 

It seems to work well with a loop back block device that is not part of the 
union. Logrow will quickly expand a loop mounted block device and then I can 
use resize2fs to online resize the ext3 filesystem, but if it's the RW branch 
of AUFS, the system becomes unstable, no messages logged, CPU usage go to 100%, 
and then you dead. I'm using Puppy Linux, in this we have only one RW branch 
that gets mounted along with a number of RO branches then we switch_root to /.  

Just to be clear, the instability comes after running logrow before I get the 
chance to resize2fs. Logrow does successfully expand the block device.

Thanks,

Kirk
