Is it possible, that there is a bug in kpartx when using very long paths? Test 1 (short paths, works): ---------- #!/bin/bash set -x set -e losetup --all kpartx -a -s -v /home/tester/whonix_binary/Whonix-Gateway-8.6.1.6.raw losetup --all kpartx -d -s -v /home/tester/whonix_binary/Whonix-Gateway-8.6.1.6.raw losetup --all Output 1: ---------- sudo ./testscript + set -e + losetup --all + kpartx -a -s -v /home/tester/whonix_binary/Whonix-Gateway-8.6.1.6.raw add map loop0p1 (254:0): 0 209711104 linear /dev/loop0 4096 + losetup --all /dev/loop0: [0801]:5898359 (/home/tester/whonix_binary/Whonix-Gateway-8.6.1.6.raw) + kpartx -d -s -v /home/tester/whonix_binary/Whonix-Gateway-8.6.1.6.raw del devmap : loop0p1 loop deleted : /dev/loop0 + losetup --all Test 2 (long paths, fails): ---------- #!/bin/bash set -x set -e losetup --all kpartx -a -s -v /home/tester/whonix_binary/Whonix-Gateway-8.6.1.6_report_tempfolder/raw_folder/Whonix-Gateway-8.6.1.6.raw losetup --all kpartx -d -s -v /home/tester/whonix_binary/Whonix-Gateway-8.6.1.6_report_tempfolder/raw_folder/Whonix-Gateway-8.6.1.6.raw losetup --all Output 2: ---------- sudo ./testscript + set -e + losetup --all + kpartx -a -s -v /home/tester/whonix_binary/Whonix-Gateway-8.6.1.6_report_tempfolder/raw_folder/Whonix-Gateway-8.6.1.6.raw add map loop0p1 (254:0): 0 209711104 linear /dev/loop0 4096 + losetup --all /dev/loop0: [0801]:5898422 (/home/tester/whonix_binary/Whonix-Gateway-8.6.1.6_report_tempfolder/raw_folder/Whonix-Gateway-8.6.1.6.raw) + kpartx -d -s -v /home/tester/whonix_binary/Whonix-Gateway-8.6.1.6_report_tempfolder/raw_folder/Whonix-Gateway-8.6.1.6.raw + losetup --all /dev/loop0: [0801]:5898422 (/home/tester/whonix_binary/Whonix-Gateway-8.6.1.6_report_tempfolder/raw_folder/Whonix-Gateway-8.6.1.6.raw) ---------- (Same file, different path.) In second run, loop is not deleted for some reason. Perhaps a bug? kpartx version: 0.4.9+git0.4dfdaf2b-7~deb7u2 All the best, Patrick -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
