The same problem also happens with rsync from today's git HEAD and bc58313bf7f42f0993.

I've been able to reproduce the problem on a single subdirectory although I had to add the --debug=all flag to reproduce it on that smaller directory. Specifically, this command never completes: rsync --debug=all -avz /tmp/html2 /tmp/rsynctest/ The html2 directory is a copy of gnuradio-3.7.8.1/build/docs/doxygen/html . When I strace the command, I see this: write(1, "sender finished /tmp/html2/atsc_"..., 58sender finished /tmp/html2/atsc__interleaver_8h__incl.md5 ) = 58 write(1, "send_files(338, /tmp/html2/atsc_"..., 59send_files(338, /tmp/html2/atsc__interleaver_8h__incl.png) ) = 59 open("html2/atsc__interleaver_8h__incl.png", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = 3 fstat64(3, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0664, st_size=264657, ...}) = 0 write(1, "html2/atsc__interleaver_8h__incl"..., 37html2/atsc__interleaver_8h__incl.png ) = 37 read(3, "\211PNG\r\n\32\n\0\0\0\rIHDR\0\0\n\253\0\0\2\233\10\6\0\0\0h\242\""..., 262144) = 262144 select(6, [5], [4], [5], {60, 0}) = 2 (in [5], out [4], left {59, 999996}) read(5, "\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\1\0\240\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\1\0\240\0\0\0"..., 95) = 95 write(4, "r\311\0\7\177\377\232\237\264\272e\300\300\240\316\264&\314\301\252*\37\256y\225g\373^\315j\370\350"..., 51574) = 51574 select(5, [], [4], [], {60, 0}) = 1 (out [4], left {59, 999997}) write(4, "\7\320\0\7\177\377\234|\7X\223Y\273\255c\27\25f\306\212\202\214#E\272\212t\1\225A\fU"..., 53259) = 53259 select(5, [], [4], [], {60, 0} The select command times out over and over. I get the same behavior when trying to back up my entire home directory but I don't need the --debug=all flag in that case. lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS Release: 14.04 apt-cache policy rsync rsync: Installed: 3.1.0-2ubuntu0.1 Candidate: 3.1.0-2ubuntu0.1 Version table: *** 3.1.0-2ubuntu0.1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-updates/main i386 Packages 500 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-security/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 3.1.0-2 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main i386 Packages ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 Package: rsync 3.1.0-2ubuntu0.1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.13.0-74.118-generic 3.13.11-ckt30 Uname: Linux 3.13.0-74-generic i686 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.19 Architecture: i386 CurrentDesktop: KDE Date: Wed Dec 23 09:44:17 2015 EcryptfsInUse: Yes InstallationDate: Installed on 2010-09-18 (1922 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 10.10 "Maverick Meerkat" - Beta i386 (20100901.1) SourcePackage: rsync UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to trusty on 2014-12-27 (361 days ago) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rsync/+bug/1528921/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
