No, not at all. There was a problem with the xattr code if the kernel was built with xattrs disabled. It assumed that REISERFS_SB(s)->xattr_root would be available, which isn't the case when xattrs aren't enabled. Part of it has been cleaned up in -git1, and I've sent Al some additional patches to fix the rest of it up. There's a thread called "reiserfs xattr fixups" that contains 4 patches. The patch marked with * is the one I believe will fix your problem. - - reiserfs: cleanup ifdefs - - reiserfs: deal with NULL xattr root w/ xattrs disabled * - - reiserfs: fixup perms when xattrs are disabled - - reiserfs: allow exposing privroot w/ xattrs enabled - -Jeff - -- Jeff Mahoney SUSE Labs -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with SUSE - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkoJr9EACgkQLPWxlyuTD7JbfACfSV+WiMxReRCr/YRDT8IBf7M8 jVkAn3fhf3R1i5cyi/YJ+vtO/WTd6Lre =90Xq -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe reiserfs-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
