Hi, After using nilfs2 for half a year now on data partitions without any problems, I wanted to try it for the root partition. This way I discovered a silent random symbolic link corruption problem.
Versions: latest nilfs2 git module kernel 2.6.28.2 tar 1.20 Step to reproduce it: tar -xpf zz1.tar (where zz1.tar is a tar file containing many symbolic links (in my case a directory containing 2 root filesystems for remote booting) On untar some symbolic links are missing and 0 byte files are existing instead. I repeated the test 3 times on a freshly formated nilfs2 partition and always had other links missing. I am currently trying to bzip2 the big tar file and untar this one in order to verify if there are no timing issues and will report back when this test is finished. Could you please look into this ? Thanks in advance Bye, David Arendt _______________________________________________ users mailing list [email protected] https://www.nilfs.org/mailman/listinfo/users
