reiser4 grub patch

2006-02-03 Thread luc
Hi,

i have a big trouble with the grub with reiser4 patch. Look here:

./install.sh:

grub root (hd0,0)
 Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83
grub setup (hd0)
 Checking if /boot/grub/stage1 exists... yes
 Checking if /boot/grub/stage2 exists... yes
 Checking if /boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5 exists... yes
 Running embed /boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5 (hd0)...  15 sectors are 
embedded.
succeeded
 Running install /boot/grub/stage1 (hd0) (hd0)1+15 p 
(hd0,0)/boot/grub/stage /boot/grub/menu.lst... failed
                                                        should be 
stage2  ^^


without reiser4 patch works perfectly

  It would be interesting to check the filesystem after a week of regular
  load to see whether new such corruptions appeared.

 No problems so far:

 reiserfsck finished at Fri Jan 20 12:30:05 2006

Still no problems:

is it grub 0.97?

have you taken the patched grub from our ftp or patched it by yourself?

have you installed the grub or testing it all in the source dir?
do not forget that new fs images should be put into /boot/grub/, otherwise 
you are trying old images with new grub.

reiser4 fs seems to be not involved into that installation process, am I 
correct that an fs grub source sits on, /, (hd0,0), other used fs are not 
reiser4 ones?

which files do you have in (hd0,0)/boot/grub/?

Reiser4 on powerpc; unresolved symbol, panic

2006-02-03 Thread Jonathan Bastien-Filiatrault
Hi,
Seing that reiser4 was pretty much stable on my i386 workstation, I
decided to give it a try on my iBook 2001 dual-usb.

While compiling the new kernel for my laptop (2.6.15 + debian, reiser4
patched, built-in), it gave new_page as an unresolved symbol in
fs/reiser4/plugin/item/tail.c . By looking at the context of the file, I
changed new_page for page.

With that, I was able to start rsyncing my system back on the laptop
(using a rescue partition, with the same kernel). Unfortunately, about
halfway through, it gave a pretty ugly panic; the dmesg output is
attached. Running 'sync' or 'umount' on the filesystem resulted in that
userspace program to stop responding completely. After a reboot, a fsck on
the reiser4 filesystem resulted in total anhilation (thousands of files in
lost+found, none in the rest of the filesystem).

Hopefully, I have good backup habits (my workstation is backed up twice a
week in case of reiser4 snafu), no data was lost, so I wont be suing
namesys ;P.

Thanks for the great filesystem,
Keep up the great work,
Jonathan

Re: Reiser4 on powerpc; unresolved symbol, panic

2006-02-03 Thread Jake Maciejewski
I tried the same change with the 2.6.15-1 patch on my beige g3 and got a
hard lock attempting to mount a reiser4 filesystem and no messages
logged. The previous behavior has been for reiser4 filesystems, even
created on a working architecture, to gracefully fail to mount.

I don't think Namesys is prioritizing PPC support yet, which is
understandable.

Re: Small ZFS / Reiser4 / Ext 'benchmark'

2006-02-03 Thread Pysiak Satriani
Hans,

 I am surprised that Reiser4 does so well, and I would be interested in
 knowing more details of exactly what the test does.  Our tests show
 reiser4 not doing THAT much better, so  you must be doing something
 different from our tests. 
Unfortunately LKML was not CC'd even once in this thread so your mail
that CC'd lkml looked very strange because it was a reply to messages
not seen on the list :-(

If you had the intention of letting folks outside reiserfs-ml know, you
might have missed it. Maybe Grzegorz Kulewski's suggestion about
Adrian doing repetetive benchmarks and posting them regularly is
quite valid and sensible.

Next week vs will look at changing new_page for page.  Thanks for
finding a bug.  We don't have an iBook, so we can't really do more than
fix the bugs you identify for us.

2006-02-03 Thread Jake Maciejewski
As I believe I've recommended before, PearPC on a high-end i386 machine
(I don't think JIT support is available for amd64) should be an adequate
PowerPC test platform.
