I have a 4tb hfsplus partition.
Mounting and writing to it present no problems.
However
1. sync command hangs
Educated guess... file system fault? Is there a file system check
program for that particular filing system.
Hanging sync sounds like it's not finishing updating the filesystem (the
original write seemed to work, because it didn't actually write and
complete when you thought it did, it's gone into cache, you're returned
to carry on doing other things, and syncing would be the next step in
the background (though it would try to do it, some time after the write,
before you tried manually syncing).
Though, another thought is - would there be anything else with a grip on
the mount point, that's not letting go?
2. umount of any hfsplus partion, hangs.
3. reboot hangs (it never reboots, forcing me to use the hard reset)
4. shutdown now hangs requires hard reset.
5. using the gui system -> shutdown -> [shutdown|restart|suspend|hibernate]
hang forever, thus also requiring hard reset.
All of those would be failing for the same reason - trying to sync a
file system before it shuts down, and it'll wait until the sync
finished, or perhaps for a lengthy timeout.
There is /sbin/fsck.hfsplus
but as you know, fsck runs automagically when the system detects insertion
into the usb port a storage device, and attempts to mount it, and find
it was
not shutdown cleanly, and runs the fsck.
So, not sure about the "grip" :)
I wonder if I should open a bug at bugzilla.redhat.com
and/or at bugzilla.kernel.org.
