When doing my weekly patches (dnf upgrade), I get swamped with
"hardlink" error messages. There are a huge number of them, and they
fly past far too fast to see what dnf was doing when the messages
started. I found the messages in two log files. I put them on the
google drive. The file names with links to them on the google drive
are as follows:
dnf.rpm.log.1

For some reason you have debug kernels installed. Try "dnf remove
kernel-debug*" and see if that solves your problem.
I finally tested the fix this morning with the weekly run of "dnf
upgrade". I saw none of them "hardlink" errors. So Samuel's diagnosis
and cure is the solution.
This seems to have also fixed another problem. For the past few weeks,
the weekly "dnf upgrade" would take some 15-20 minutes doing some
"invisible" work, I think it was at the end of the cleanup phase. The
system monitor graph would show lots of CPU activity during that 15-20
minutes, but the system monitor process table and "top" would show very
few or no processes using more than 1% CPU. This workstation is a 3+
GHz, quad-core, 8 CPU machine. This did not occur during today's "dnf
upgrade". It does bother me that CPU-intensive processes seems to be
able to hide from "top" and the system monitor process table.
I do agree with Roger also. Some part of the patching process was not
being done properly.
I've marked this thread "SOLVED". Thank-you Samuel and Roger.
Bill.
