Summary: REGRESSION: 3.0.3pre3 dies with "failed to open XXX, continuing: Too many open files" Product: rsync Version: 3.0.3 Platform: Other OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: core AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] QAContact: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I started getting a lot of errors like rsync: failed to open "/tftpboot/moniscreen/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.24-19-generic/include/config/fs/posix/acl.h", continuing: Too many open files (24) rsync: failed to open "/tftpboot/moniscreen/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.24-19-generic/include/config/fujitsu/laptop.h", continuing: Too many open files (24) rsync: failed to open "/tftpboot/moniscreen/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.24-19-generic/include/config/fuse/fs.h", continuing: Too many open files (24) rsync: failed to open "/tftpboot/moniscreen/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.24-19-generic/include/config/fusion/ctl.h", continuing: Too many open files (24) rsync: failed to open "/tftpboot/moniscreen/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.24-19-generic/include/config/fusion/fc.h", continuing: Too many open files (24) rsync: failed to open "/tftpboot/moniscreen/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.24-19-generic/include/config/fusion/lan.h", continuing: Too many open files (24) rsync: failed to open "/tftpboot/moniscreen/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.24-19-generic/include/config/fusion/logging.h", continuing: Too many open files (24) rsync: failed to open "/tftpboot/moniscreen/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.24-19-generic/include/config/fusion/sas.h", continuing: Too many open files (24) after I upgraded from rsync 3.0.3pre2 to 3.0.0pre3. I invoke rsync on a debian stable system on x86 with the following arguments/environment: execve("/usr/bin/rsync", ["rsync", "--numeric-ids", "--delete", "--delete-after", "-ax", "[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/", "/tftpboot/moniscreen"], ["SHELL=/bin/bash", "TERM =screen", "USER=root", "http_proxy=http://proxy.kurp.hut.fi:3128/", "SUDO_USER=lindi", "SUDO_UID=548", "ftp_proxy=http://proxy.kurp.hut.fi:3128/", "PATH=/usr/local/sb in:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin"..., "PWD=/root", "EDITOR=/home/lindi/bin/editor", "SHLVL=1", "SUDO_COMMAND=/bin/bash backup2 --stdin", "HOME=/home/lindi", "LESSCHARSET=latin1", "LOGNAME=root", "LC_CTYPE=fi_FI", "SUDO_GID=500", "_=/usr/bin/strace"]) and with the following ulimits: core file size (blocks, -c) unlimited data seg size (kbytes, -d) 1004140 max nice (-e) 0 file size (blocks, -f) unlimited pending signals (-i) unlimited max locked memory (kbytes, -l) 1004140 max memory size (kbytes, -m) 1004140 open files (-n) 1024 pipe size (512 bytes, -p) 8 POSIX message queues (bytes, -q) unlimited max rt priority (-r) 0 stack size (kbytes, -s) 4096 cpu time (seconds, -t) unlimited max user processes (-u) unlimited virtual memory (kbytes, -v) 1004140 file locks (-x) unlimited I could raise ulimit of open files but shouldn't rsync cope just fine with the default limit? The diff between pre2 and pre3 is quite small but I was unable to figure out anything obvious. What extra info should I provide? The whole strace output is 96 megabytes and contains sensitive data. I was unable to reproduce the issue with a simple mkdir a for i in `seq 1 4096`; do echo > a/$i; done rsync --numeric-ids --delete --delete-after -ax a/ b -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.samba.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
