Hi Kyle,

I don't have a fix for your problem yet, but I think the message about "Please make sure that the pvfs2-client is running" is erroneous. The real error is the pvfs_bufmap_copy_iovec_from_user error.

Also, did you pull from CVS using the pvfs-2-6-0 release tag? If not, the code in trunk (HEAD tag) may not be working for ppc64 at this point.

I was able to get the client finally built and mounted this morning for 2.6.0-cvs, and ran across this
problem whenever trying to write/read through the vfs to the mount:
*I'm running a biarch debian-ppc64 setup on the client, which has worked in the past on 2.5-cvs.

pvfs2_bufmap_copy_iovec_from_user: computed total (0) is not equal to (2862872) /usr/src/pvfs-2.6.0-cvs/src/kernel/linux-2.6/file.c line 216: Failed to copy-in buffers. Please make sure that the pvfs2-client is running. -22

The client doesnt crash, and is indeed still there, mounted, `ls` verifies the filesystem is still up?

I'm able to do regular operations just fine directly to the filesystem via libpvfs2, however, nothing on the vfs mount. This error message isnt very helpful to me as the client is still running, what should I look for to debug this?
