I tried to copy/paste the patch at:
http://git.openafs.org/?p=openafs.git;a=blobdiff;f=src/afs/LINUX/osi_vnodeops.c;h=969a27b271ed3b809f1ddaa462099a5cc09d7886;hp=c1acca962337dff1cf66916c1e3e876bd8468e54;hb=a72dafafddaaa5bfe86c067a605aeffa16572c51;hpb=6d74e3d6a1becf86cec30efc2d01a5692167afe1 But it failed for me with openafs-1.6.22.2-src.tar.bz2 patching file src/afs/LINUX/osi_vnodeops.c Hunk #1 FAILED at 53. Hunk #2 succeeded at 296 (offset -6 lines). Hunk #3 succeeded at 378 (offset -7 lines). Hunk #4 FAILED at 455. Hunk #5 FAILED at 475. Hunk #6 FAILED at 798. 4 out of 6 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file src/afs/LINUX/osi_vnodeops.c.rej So I made my own patch based on that one. https://pastebin.com/NZsUz9Jg In RHEL 7.5 beta edition vm on kernel 3.10.0-830.el7.x86_64 openafs Works like a CHAMP. :) Can list directories again. Can also edit files in afs. Whew. Did further testing to be paranoid. Testing listing directories and editing a file in afs path. Patch was applied across all distros below... centos 6 32 bit kernel 2.6.32-696.20.1.el6.i686: works centos 6 64 bit kernel 2.6.32-696.20.1.el6.x86_64: works centos 7.4 64 bit kernel 3.10.0-693.17.1.el7.x86_64: works fedora 26 64 bit kernel 4.15.6-200.fc26.x86_64: works fedora 27 64 bit kernel 4.15.6-300.fc27.x86_64: works Since all tests succeeded I went ahead and committed and pushed to github.com for my packages. https://github.com/gsgatlin/openafs-rpms/commit/fd61c9ff2c21404fba5276d7f3919ef1e6ab545d Thank you very much!
