Hi, So, apparently tmpfs does not support non-root xattr due to a possible DoS-vector. There's configuration set for enabling it as far as I can see. CONFIG_TMPFS=y CONFIG_TMPFS_POSIX_ACL=y CONFIG_TMPFS_XATTR=y Anyone know a way around it? Saw that there's a patch for enabling it, but recompiling my kernel is out of reach right now ;) Created the osd with following: root at osd1:/# dd seek=6G if=/dev/zero of=/dev/shm/test-osd/img bs=1 count=1 root at osd1:/# losetup /dev/loop0 /dev/shm/test-osd/img root at osd1:/# mkfs.xfs /dev/loop0 root at osd1:/# ceph osd create 50 root at osd1:/# mkdir /var/lib/ceph/osd/ceph-50 root at osd1:/# mount -t xfs /dev/loop0 /var/lib/ceph/osd/ceph-50 root at osd1:/# ceph-osd --debug_ms 50 -i 50 --mkfs --mkkey --osd-journal=/dev/sdc7 --mkjournal 2014-05-15 00:20:29.796822 7f40063bb780 -1 journal FileJournal::_open: aio not supported without directio; disabling aio 2014-05-15 00:20:29.798583 7f40063bb780 -1 journal check: ondisk fsid bc14ff30-e016-4e0d-9672-96262ee5f07e doesn't match expected b3f5b98b-e024-4153-875d-5c758a6060eb, invalid (someone else's?) journal 2014-05-15 00:20:29.802155 7f40063bb780 -1 journal FileJournal::_open: aio not supported without directio; disabling aio 2014-05-15 00:20:29.807237 7f40063bb780 -1 filestore(/var/lib/ceph/osd/ceph-50) could not find 23c2fcde/osd_superblock/0//-1 in index: (2) No such file or directory 2014-05-15 00:20:29.809083 7f40063bb780 -1 created object store /var/lib/ceph/osd/ceph-50 journal /dev/sdc7 for osd.50 fsid c51a2683-55dc-4634-9d9d-f0fec9a6f389 2014-05-15 00:20:29.809121 7f40063bb780 -1 auth: error reading file: /var/lib/ceph/osd/ceph-50/keyring: can't open /var/lib/ceph/osd/ceph-50/keyring: (2) No such file or directory 2014-05-15 00:20:29.809179 7f40063bb780 -1 created new key in keyring /var/lib/ceph/osd/ceph-50/keyring root at osd1:/# ceph-osd --debug_ms 50 -i 50 --mkfs --mkkey --osd-journal=/dev/sdc7 --mkjournal 2014-05-15 00:20:51.122716 7ff813ba4780 -1 journal FileJournal::_open: aio not supported without directio; disabling aio 2014-05-15 00:20:51.126275 7ff813ba4780 -1 journal FileJournal::_open: aio not supported without directio; disabling aio 2014-05-15 00:20:51.129532 7ff813ba4780 -1 provided osd id 50 != superblock's -1 2014-05-15 00:20:51.129845 7ff813ba4780 -1 ** ERROR: error creating empty object store in /var/lib/ceph/osd/ceph-50: (22) Invalid argument Cheers, Josef Christian Balzer skrev 2014-05-14 14:33: > Hello! > > On Wed, 14 May 2014 11:29:47 +0200 Josef Johansson wrote: > >> Hi Christian, >> >> I missed this thread, haven't been reading the list that well the last >> weeks. >> >> You already know my setup, since we discussed it in an earlier thread.
