Do you keep adding files to the directory while you move files out?
Yes, otherwise there are too many files in the directory and viewers, e.g.,
each geeqie (picture viewer) will use > 4-6GB of memory, so I try to keep
it around 5,000 pictures or less.
What's the rate of additions/removals to the directory?
Additions it depends, around 5,000 over a 12hr period, 416/hr, current:
atom:/d1/motion# find cam1|wc
5215 5215 166853
atom:/d1/motion# find cam2|wc
5069 5069 162181
atom:/d1/motion# find cam3|wc
5594 5594 178981
atom:/d1/motion#
This sounds a lot like xfs simply filling up the directory index slots
of files that you just moved out with new files, and nfs falsely
claiming that this is a problem.
Yep. There is an existing bugzilla report for this bug at
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38572
I have a preliminary patch there that attempts to turn off the loop
detection when the directory is seen to change, however that patch still
appears to have a bug in it, and I haven't had time to figure out what
is wrong yet.
Can you perhaps take a look, Bryan?
Actually, Justin, can you test the following slight variant on the patch
in the bugzilla?
Doh! This one will actually compile....
Hi,
Should I try 3.0 first or retry 2.6.38 w/ this patch?
Justin.
