Hello, I'm having an issue with perl and libgd reading TrueType fonts over an NFS mount. The NFS server is an Isilon cluster (I believe they are based on FreeBSD 6.1?) The client is a machine that's just been updated to Hardy. * Kernel 2.6.24-16-server * libgd-gd2-perl 2.35-1 * libgd2-xpm 2.0.35 The issue is this: using libgd via a perl script, I try writing text to an image in a font, specified by a file name (the font is located on the remote NFS server). The script says that it cannot locate the font. The client machine does not have any other known problems with the NFS share, it can read and write other files just fine. We have several other machines that are reading this same share, though they are running kernel 2.6.22 from Gutsy (I confirmed that a downgrade to 2.6.22 on Hardy resolves the issue). Here is a link to a script that can duplicate the problem 100% of the time: http://soc.ath.cx/testfont.pl.txt An strace using the kernel that doesn't work looks like this: access("/mnt/isilon/fonts/arial.ttf", R_OK) = 0 open("/mnt/isilon/fonts/arial.ttf", O_RDONLY) = 3 fcntl64(3, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC) = 0 fstat64(3, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0666, st_size=48784, ...}) = 0 close(3) = 0 And the strace on the system that *does* work looks like this: access("/mnt/isilon/fonts/arial.ttf", R_OK) = 0 open("/mnt/isilon/fonts/arial.ttf", O_RDONLY) = 3 fcntl64(3, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC) = 0 fstat64(3, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0666, st_size=48784, ...}) = 0 mmap2(NULL, 48784, PROT_READ, MAP_PRIVATE, 3, 0) = 0xb79cd000 close(3) = 0 Everything looks the same except the missing "mmap2" section. Again, a note, this same machine *can* access other shares and read fonts just fine. It appears to just be the connection to the Isilon machine. Everything worked before the upgrade, and a downgrade to 2.6.22 works. Any information would be helpful. -- Adam Olsen SendOutCards.com http://www.vimtips.org http://last.fm/user/synic -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
