Package: zfs-fuse Version: 0.6.9-1+b1 Severity: normal zfs-fuse's flushSCSIwc function (defined in src/lib/libzpool.c) issues an SG_IO ioctl. That's fine when it's working with a whole disk, but Debian kernels have recently started noisly forbidding SG_IO against partitions or LVM volumes, even for root, to address CVE-2011-4127. You can find a detailed explanation of the new restrictions at
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1232658 Could zfs-fuse please either arrange to retarget SG_IO to whole disks itself or substitute a different approach altogether?
