[1.] knfsd causes file system corruption when files are locked.
[2.] Lock down a file using the NLM_SHARE sharing mechanism. Remove
the file. Unlock the file using NLM_UNSHARE. The filesystem does not
recover the file space. I am running this on ext2fs. Fsck-ing the
filesystem does not help. The only way to recover the space is to
reformat the partition.
[3.] knfsd, lock, NLM_SHARE, NLM_UNSHARE
[4.] Linux version 2.2.16 (root@jedi) (gcc version 2.7.2.3)
[5.] N/A
[6.] This test.c program will reproduce the problem. You need to compile it
on a Solaris machine because Linux fcntl does not support NLM_SHARE.
-----start here
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main (int argc, char *argv[])
{
struct fshare lck;
int fd, ret;
if (argc != 2) {
printf ("Usage: %s file to lock\n", argv[0]);
return 1;
}
fd = open (argv[1], O_WRONLY);
memset (&lck, 0, sizeof (struct flock));
lck.f_access = F_WRACC;
lck.f_deny = F_NODNY;
ret = fcntl (fd, F_SHARE, &lck);
unlink (argv[1]);
ret = fcntl (fd, F_UNSHARE, &lck);
return 0;
}
-----end here
Step to reproduce the problem
- Compile the program:
gcc test.c -o test
- Mount a Linux nfs partition on Solaris: (Remember the partition will
get corrupted, use a partition that you don't care about.)
mount -o vers=2 jedi:/sandbox /mnt
- Create a chunk of data on /mnt
dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/chunk count=10000
- Do a df before running the program
- Run the test program
./test /mnt/chunk
- Run df again. The free space reamains the same. The space is gone
till you reformat the partition.
[7.] This bug was seen on a Debian 2.2 machine. We have seen the same
thing happens on systems running Red Hat 6.2 and TurboLinux 6.0 distributions.
