So - any ideas ?? okay, just as update, we tracked this down to the fact that even mainline 2.6.15/2.6.16-rc3 does not release ext3 filesystems properly when the namespace is destroyed ... this can be easily verified with a mainline kernel and the following command sequence: vnamespace --new -- mount /dev/hda1 /mnt (assuming that /dev/hda1 contains an ext3 fs and /mnt exists, this will claim hda1 but not release it -- it works fine with ext2 though) now investigating ... Bertl tracked the issue down to be caused by the kernel thread created for the mount (kjournald), which is running in the new namespace. Once all user processes in that namespace are gone, you loose access to it, but the kjournald keeps it alive, thus the mount stays around which in turn keeps the kjournald alive, oops :-) A patch to fix this is in -mm now, the according threads on lkml are: Message-Id: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/2/17/323 Message-Id: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/2/20/33 Björn ___ Vserver mailing list Vserver@list.linux-vserver.org http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver
[Vserver] Humble beginnings of Linux::VServer
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi all, I have started work on a Linux::VServer perl module, and it can at least make a syscall or two already. The main purpose of the module is for something to easily prototype changes people suggest to the API as the vserver-inclusion branch gets ready, and to have a place for managing an extremely finely grained test suite that is useful for cross-checking and debugging kernel-side development. For the VServer 2.1 API used by VServer 2.0+, it just wraps libvserver. ~ The 3.1 API, used currently only by the vserver-inclusion I am working on, is 'pure' perl. As a side project, I will be bundling up the patchy bits and pieces of scripts I have made available over time (such as immucp, unify-dirs, the LVM integrated vserver creation scripts, etc) into this module, which may end up being split off into a seperate distribution etc. Or, if people are interested, may end up being a more comprehensive set of userland utilities. Currently you can browse the tree at ~ http://vserver.utsl.gen.nz/gitweb/?p=Linux-VServer.git;a=summary or pull via git (or your favourite git porcelain) from ~ git://vserver.utsl.gen.nz/git/Linux-VServer.git - -- Sam Vilain, Catalyst IT (NZ) Ltd. phone: +64 4 499 2267PGP ID: 0x66B25843 -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFD+qvM/AZAiGayWEMRAuAQAJ9ecDsl2zxbTdqNLkVbP+851tNDiwCeIxIO A7nKfus/kiZTU05R2O9Oa3Q= =686r -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ Vserver mailing list Vserver@list.linux-vserver.org http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver
