RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:
Redundancy whitespace at the end of directory name when use <TAB> to complete the directory name in guestfish with a xfs filesystem in guest. It works well with ext2/3/4 btrfs filesystem. 


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
libguestfs-tools-c-1.27.63-1.1.el7


How reproducible:
100%


Steps to Reproduce:
#guestfish -N fs:xfs
><fs> mount /dev/sda1 /
><fs> mkdir /test
><fs> ls /test 


Actual results:
><fs> ls /test 

There is a whitespace at the end of /test


Expected results:
><fs> ls /test/


Additional info:

This is something that bothered me for a while, but I haven't found a reliable way to reproduce it. Indeed the file system (xfs in this case) is the key; patch posted:
  https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2014-October/msg00258.html

Fixed upstream with commit
https://github.com/libguestfs/libguestfs/commit/a8b95a5535480c7b382fab82dcaf18eb67e5278a
which is in libguestfs >= 1.29.4.

Version: libguestfs-1.28.1-1.9.el7.x86_64

Steps:
><fs> ls /test/ 
><fs> 

works fine. Verified.
