Description Manfred Hollstein 2005-11-25 14:13:11 UTC

Trying to find out the level of fragmentation on my XFS filesystems using "xfs_db" from the xfsdump package results in a "Segmentation fault". Here are the details:

# df -T /dev/md5
Filesystem    Type   1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/md5       xfs    64356608       480  64356128   1% /home/vault/nobackup
# xfs_db -r -c frag /dev/md5
Segmentation fault

Strace'ing the program shows that the segfault happens after a call to mmap (will attach the strace log to this report in a second).

FWIW, this does not just happen on my x86_64 box or on an md device, but it also happens on plain x86 boxes with hdax devices, so it appears to be a rather generic failure inside the XFS utilities/stack.

I have upgraded the xfsprogs in 10.1, does it still happen there?

Comment 4 Manfred Hollstein 2006-01-21 16:31:19 UTC

Just tried to upgrade to xfsprogs-2.7.11-3 on my SUSE Linux 10.0, but it failed due to its dependency to GLIBC_2.4. Can you provide a package built for SL-10.0, too?

Comment 5 Manfred Hollstein 2006-01-23 10:42:52 UTC

OK, I just build the package myself using build.rpm and tested it on i586 and x86_64; the problem appears to be fixed. Maybe we should release this package as an update via YOU?
