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.

Fixed In Version: coreutils-8.4-40.el6
Doc Type: Release Note
Doc Text:
The Oracle ACFS is now included among known file systems Previously, the Oracle ASM Cluster file system (ACFS) was not listed among known file systems for the *stat* and *tail* utilities. As a consequence, the *tail* utility printed an error message stating that the file system was not recognized. ACFS has been added to the list of known file systems, and the error message no longer appears in the described situation. In addition, other file systems recognized by upstream have been added to the list of known file systems as well, namely `acfs`, `bpf_fs`, `btrfs_test`, `configfs`, `efivarfs`, `exofs`, `f2fs`, `hfs+`, `hfsx`, `hostfs`, `ibrix`, `logfs`, `nsfs`, `overlayfs`, `smackfs`, `snfs`, `tracefs`, and `ubifs`.

Comment 1 Ondrej Vasik 2015-11-11 15:13:25 UTC
As an upstream report reference - debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=21876 ... with http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?msg=10;filename=stat-new-fs-types.patch;att=1;bug=21876 as a patch by Pádraig Brady. Thanks Pádraig.

Comment 2 Pádraig Brady 2015-11-11 15:15:26 UTC
Note this file system is out of kernel tree.
Also newer versions of tail will not warn about this.
In any case this definition has been added to upstream at:
http://git.sv.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=coreutils.git;a=commitdiff;h=v8.24-83-g0daa359

Comment 9 Branislav Blaškovič 2016-03-29 12:58:43 UTC
Patch coreutils-8.4-tailstatnewfs2.patch is present in coreutils-8.4-42.el6.
This patch introduces all new FS recognized by upstream.
