** Description changed: Compile this code: #include<sys/inotify.h> #include<stdio.h> #include<string.h> #include<errno.h> int main(int argc, char **argv) { int inotifyid = inotify_init(); if(inotifyid == -1) { fprintf(stderr, "Could not init inotify.\n"); return 1; } int wd = inotify_add_watch(inotifyid, argv[1], IN_CREATE | IN_DELETE_SELF | IN_DELETE | IN_CLOSE_WRITE | IN_MOVED_FROM | IN_MOVED_TO | IN_ONLYDIR); if(wd == -1) { fprintf(stderr, "Could not create inotify watch object: %s\n", strerror(errno)); return 1; } return 0; } Run it like this: "./inotifyapp some/dir". On Saucy it prints this: Could not create inotify wath object: No space left on device The same happens on both btrfs and ext4 drives. The disk does have space and the same partition works when inotify is used from raring. This issue breaks e.g. Dropbox. + --- + ApportVersion: 2.12.5-0ubuntu2 + Architecture: amd64 + AudioDevicesInUse: + USER PID ACCESS COMMAND + /dev/snd/controlC1: jpakkane 2131 F.... pulseaudio + /dev/snd/controlC0: jpakkane 2131 F.... pulseaudio + /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p: jpakkane 2131 F...m pulseaudio + DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.10 + InstallationDate: Installed on 2013-05-20 (150 days ago) + InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 13.04 "Raring Ringtail" - Release amd64 (20130424) + IwConfig: + eth0 no wireless extensions. + + lo no wireless extensions. + MarkForUpload: True + Package: linux (not installed) + ProcFB: 0 radeondrmfb + ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/@/boot/vmlinuz-3.11.0-12-generic root=UUID=7dd49803-456a-4327-aeb5-7ea47105ef3e ro rootflags=subvol=@ quiet splash vt.handoff=7 + ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.11.0-12.19-generic 3.11.3 + RelatedPackageVersions: + linux-restricted-modules-3.11.0-12-generic N/A + linux-backports-modules-3.11.0-12-generic N/A + linux-firmware 1.116 + RfKill: + + Tags: saucy + Uname: Linux 3.11.0-12-generic x86_64 + UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to saucy on 2013-08-08 (69 days ago) + UserGroups: adm cdrom dip lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo + WifiSyslog: + + dmi.bios.date: 05/16/2013 + dmi.bios.vendor: Intel Corp. + dmi.bios.version: EBH7710H.86A.0101.2013.0516.1649 + dmi.board.name: DH77EB + dmi.board.vendor: Intel Corporation + dmi.board.version: AAG39073-304 + dmi.chassis.type: 3 + dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnIntelCorp.:bvrEBH7710H.86A.0101.2013.0516.1649:bd05/16/2013:svn:pn:pvr:rvnIntelCorporation:rnDH77EB:rvrAAG39073-304:cvn:ct3:cvr: ** Attachment added: "AlsaInfo.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1240857/+attachment/3880005/+files/AlsaInfo.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1240857 Title: Inotify is broken in saucy To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1240857/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
