Package: src:linux Version: 3.10.11-1 Severity: normal File: linux Dear Maintainer,
It seems that a previously-fixed bug has crept back into the system. Bug #366940 (which I can't re-open because it's archived) is occurring with my shiny Debian Jessie. Direct Link: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=366940 Specifically this is causing problems with file editors, which believe the files have been externally modified, and thus are popping up dialogues requesting the file be re-loaded from disk a couple of seconds after every save. This, as you can imagine, becomes very irritating, very quickly. I have researched and done my own "hacking" and have found two ways of preventing this bug occurring: 1) echo 1 > /proc/fs/cifs/LookupCacheEnabled 2) add "actimeo=0" to the mount flags Here is my output showing the problem occur: root@linux-dev64:/mnt/simon# uname -a Linux linux-dev64 3.10-3-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.10.11-1 (2013-09-10) x86_64 GNU/Linux root@linux-dev64:/mnt/simon# echo 0 > /proc/fs/cifs/LookupCacheEnabled root@linux-dev64:/mnt/simon# touch test.txt; ls -la --full-time test.txt; sleep 10; ls -la --full-time test.txt -rwxr-xr-x 1 simon simon 0 2013-10-09 01:50:38.000000000 +0100 test.txt -rwxr-xr-x 1 simon simon 0 2013-10-09 01:50:38.000000000 +0100 test.txt root@linux-dev64:/mnt/simon# echo 1 > /proc/fs/cifs/LookupCacheEnabled root@linux-dev64:/mnt/simon# touch test.txt; ls -la --full-time test.txt; sleep 10; ls -la --full-time test.txt -rwxr-xr-x 1 simon simon 0 2013-10-09 01:51:02.515999388 +0100 test.txt -rwxr-xr-x 1 simon simon 0 2013-10-09 01:51:02.000000000 +0100 test.txt As I said, this is just an annoyance to me, there's no data loss associated with it or anything that'd justify a high priority; and I've got workarounds. I'm just reporting that a supposedly-fixed bug is actually still occurring. I've removed some of the more pointless information below (like what PCI devices I have etc).
