The problem is actually different. The utimensat is called by tar or
touch, which when it does not exists fallback to futimens(). This part
hasn't changed.

futimens() in glibc is now POSIX 2008 compliant, and return -EBADF when
a bad file descriptor is passed. This is actually what tar and touch
do when it calls futimens(AT_FDCWD, ...).

I will temporarily revert this patch, and I am cloning this bug to tar
and touch so that they are fixed. I'll reapply it when they are fixed.

Bug#563724: libc6 use syscall utimensat unimplemented by etch kernel

2010-01-04 Thread Bill Allombert 
Package: libc6
Version: 2.10.2-3

Hello Debian libc maintainers,

I run a sid chroot on top of etch, using the etch kernel linux 2.6.18-6-686,
and dpkg started to fail with
tar: ./preinst: Cannot utime: Bad file descriptor

touch also fails:

%mkdir /tmp/bar
%touch /tmp/bar
touch: setting times of `/tmp/bar': Bad file descriptor
strace report:
utimensat(AT_FDCWD, "/tmp/bar", NULL, 0) = -1 ENOSYS (Function not implemented)

It seems that the issue is that the etch kernel does not implement
utimensat. 

A similar report can be found at:


Cheers,
Bill.
