[BUGS] BUG #8238: duplicate of bug #6372 on panffs
Sorry to replay in this way but I just joined the list based on a thread I found from a few days ago. I hit the panfs fsync problem this morning and it appears the same as what Jim Hughes is reporting. Initially thought it was SELinux (RHEL 6.4) but it persisted after I turned it off. Bug #6372 and Jim's reply reference a patch for copydir.c but I don't see a patch. It might have been an attachment that I didn't see through the archives. Is this patch available with instructions for compilation?

So we confirm this problem also exists on another fs in addition to CIFS. Thanks for the report. Looking back at the previous thread, it seems we chose not to change the code (to ignore EINVAL for fsync-on-a-directory) on the grounds that CIFS couldn't be considered a supported filesystem anyway. Do you find that panfs works all right for Postgres other than this issue? regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
