Christos, 

I committed a change earlier today into CVS Orange-Branch that, in limited 
testing, resolved the issues I was seeing on the ARM device I have. With help 
from some other folks here, we tracked it down to alignment issues with memory 
passed back from Berkeley (namely that it's not aligned). As a miscellaneous 
hint, to make debugging easier echo 5 into /proc/cpu/alignment so you get a 
SIGBUS instead of mucked up data when making unaligned accesses. There may be 
some more cases to track down but with these initial changes you should be able 
to get up and running. If not, or if you run into more issues, please let us 
know. 

Sorry for the delay in getting a fix for this issue! 

Thanks, 
Michael

This may be a really dumb question... 
Your data server only has 32MB of ram (assuming this is some NAS or 
router+attached storage device?) .. is that enough to run your linux kernel as 
well as then open up all of the necessary buffers, etc for a pvfs2 server? Do 
we know what a typical tcp-ip footprint is (8MB?) ?

Can you try running the same pvfs2-cp on the arm machine as well? That may 
indicate if there is a fundamental problem with the daemon on that node, or if 
there is an error with the network encoding between x86_64 and arm.

I don't have any ideas off-hand, you may be right that it's an architecture 
issue. Can you re-run the test with EventLogging set to 'bstream, trove' in the 
server configuration and send those logs?

Hi, 

I am trying to configure orangefs for testing to the following system: 

Metadata server /client: 
Centos 5 :Linux 2.6.18-194.17.4.el5 #1 SMP Mon Oct 25 15:50:53 EDT 2010 x86_64 
x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux 

Data server: 
Debian Lenny :Linux 2.6.17.14 #16 PREEMPT Sat Feb 5 12:45:55 UTC 2011 armv5tejl 
GNU/Linux 

Data server configuration options: 

./configure --prefix=/shares/internal/PUBLIC/orange 

Metadata server /client configuration options: 

./configure --prefix=/state/partition1/orange 
--with-kernel=/usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-194.17.4.el5-x86_64/ 

The compilation and installation was successful. 
"bin/pvfs2-ping -m /mnt/orange" was also successful. 

But every time i try to "pvfs2-cp" a file i am receiving a 
"trove_write_callback_fn: I/O error occurred" at the data server side(the same 
happens with pvfs-2.8.2) 

I tried to reconfigure orangefs with many different options but nothing seams 
to works. 
I also tried "alt-aio" "null-aio" "directio" but nothing happened. 

It seams that something strange happens with the data server(ARM processor - 
200MHZ,32MB RAM)because both orangefs and pvfs2 works fine when i am using as 
data servers intel or AMD processors. 

Do you have any idea what is wrong ? 
i really need to install orangefs at this ARM processor. 
Thanks in advance 
Christos 

ps: i send you some log files from the data server

Ok; all servers understand fs_id 883136527

Ok; root handle is owned by exactly one server. 

============================================================= 

The PVFS2 filesystem at /mnt/orange/ appears to be correctly configured.
