Hello, I have a mid-loaded server which runs each daemon in jail()-ed environments. The data space is union-mounted, because nullfs paniced the kernel when someting did a chroot on it (this was the case with 4.2-STABLE). On friday I upgraded from 4.3-RC to the latest 4.3-STABLE and noticed that nullfs actually works, but I get a lot of errors, similar to these: Jun 15 18:21:59 insomnia /kernel: object inconsistant state: RPC: 1, RC: 0 Jun 15 18:22:39 insomnia /kernel: object inconsistant state: RPC: 3282, RC: 0 Jun 15 18:22:39 insomnia /kernel: object inconsistant state: RPC: 1, RC: 0 Jun 15 18:23:10 insomnia /kernel: object inconsistant state: RPC: 3282, RC: 0 Jun 15 18:23:10 insomnia /kernel: object inconsistant state: RPC: 1, RC: 0 Jun 15 18:24:03 insomnia /kernel: object inconsistant state: RPC: 3282, RC: 0 Jun 15 18:24:03 insomnia /kernel: object inconsistant state: RPC: 1, RC: 0 when something accesses the filesystem. I have clean filesystems and have nothing to do with NFS. Because of the above errors, my system still uses unionfs, but it has a very annoying problem. When a program sends data from a unionfs mounted filesystem with sendfile() the data gets corrupted (tried with several daemons). I did nearly 800 GB (smashed up) traffic, when somebody finally noted this, so I had to patch all of the used daemons, like the standard ftpd to not to use sendfile(). BTW, unionfs seems to be working better than in the 4.2 days, so I think more and more people will use it. Please if you can, fix this error and if you can't, note this problem in the manpage. For the nullfs problem, I would be glad to know, what does this mean :) Thanks, -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Attila Nagy e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Budapest Polytechnic (BMF.HU) @work: +361 210 1415 (194) H-1084 Budapest, Tavaszmezo u. 15-17. cell.: +3630 306 6758 To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
