And yes /bin/ls --color=tty hangs. In fact, I changed it to
color=auto and THAT hangs as well. I changed the ls alias to be
just 'ls' and that works fine for all directories that were
hanging before. But now, ls -l hangs too. Man, this is weird.
Both colorizing the names based on the file type and getting the
file metadata for a long listing require reading each file's inode,
whereas 'ls' showing only the name requires only reading the
directory data.
If that's the case then "ls -l" should also hang. Does it?
poc
ls -l /does/ hang in those cases, /with/ and /without/ the color
option. However, the hang is different. With ls --color=tty the hang
locks the entire ssh session. Whereas I can CTRL+C out of the ls -l
hang.
So you think this is inode/disk related?
I remember something like this happening some years ago to me, and I
think it was my terminal settings ?
Can you run screen, then issue the same command and see if that fixes
the problem ?
Another idea, if you're using NFS and your wsize/rsize are not correct
(check with tracepath) could cause hangs like this.
