Hi,
[please cc when replying as I'm not subscribed to this list]
I have a strange problem I'm trying to understand. I know in which lines of tail.c the code fails but I cannot imagine why valid_file_spec() returns false. It has something to do with large files (>2GB) and them being on a DRDB partition over md0.
A tail or tail -f on a 10GB file on a physical partition of a SCSI disk works like a charm, however if I run those commands on a DRDB mounted partition, I get a EX_IOERR for normal tail and this assertion failed for a tail -f plus an EX_IOERR.
aa: # tail /data/log/zurich/10.10.20.17/20041201.app error reading `/data/log/zurich/10.10.20.17/20041201.app': Input/output error aa: # tail -f /data/log/zurich/10.10.20.17/20041201.app error reading `/data/log/zurich/10.10.20.17/20041201.app': Input/output error tail: tail.c: 836: recheck: Assertion `valid_file_spec (f)' failed. Aborted aa: #
Has anyone ever encoutered this before? It could be an issue with the rather strange entries I have in my kernlog:
Dec 3 00:00:02 aa attempt to access beyond end of device
Dec 3 00:00:02 aa 93:00: rw=0, want=72089604, limit=72072960
