This is current/amd64 on a PC; no dmesg as it's not HW related. I have a filesystem on a remote machine, mounted ro. When trying to copy onto that filesystem:
$ scp -r dir/ box:/fs/path/ Enter passphrase for key '/Users/hans/.ssh/id_ed25519': scp: stat remote: No such file or directory scp: failed to upload directory dir/ to /fs/path/ After a bit of headscratching, I copied to box:/tmp instead and then moved /tmp/dir to /fs/path on the remote machine, realizing that it's mounted ro. That makes me think that the scp: stat remote: No such file or directory message is a bit misleading: /fs/path/dir cannot be created, as in box$ mv: rename /tmp/dir to /fs/path/dir: Read-only file system not that an intermediate path does not exist. If I'm reading usr.bin/ssh/ right, it's the get_decode_stat() calling fx2txt(), but the code is a bit over my head ... Note that this happens when scp'ing a directory; when scping a file onto the ro fs, the message is scp: dest open "/fs/path/foo": Failure Jan
