Description Jean-Luc Richier 2018-12-06 12:11:36 UTC
Description of problem:
Since coreutils-8.30, the mv command is incompatible with sshfs <=3.4.0):
The rename call has been modified, and sshfs code report an invalid return code which triggers the message "Numerical result out of range"

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
fuse-sshfs 3.4.0
coreutils-8.30

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. mount a sshfs volume: sshfs fileserver: ~/mnt
2. touch ~/mnt/yyy
3. mv ~/mnt/yyy  ~/WWW/mnt/xxx

Actual results:
mv: cannot move '/home/user/mnt/yyy' to '/home/user/mnt/xxx': Numerical result out of range

Expected results:
mv done

Additional info:
This bug has been corrected in release 3.5.0 on https://github.com/libfuse/sshfs
So please upgrade the version

Same problem here 3 different F29 machines, await the update, thanks!

Comment 2 Danilo de Paula 2019-01-02 22:27:48 UTC
+1 with this problem.

Comment 3 Csaba Henk 2019-01-24 16:00:51 UTC
Reason:

Recently mv(1) got to the habit of attempting renameat2() syscall with flags. It's not expected to be supported by all fs backends; if some fs backend does not support flags, a fallback to standard renameat() is available. sshfs does not support flags, and thus it fails the rename if flags are passed. Intent is to fail with EINVAL which indicates to mv to go for the fallback. However, the signature of the errno is mistaken, and libfuse can't interpret the value it receives from sshfs_rename; hence it fails with ERANGE instead of EINVAL, which is bogus for mv, thus it gives up, reporting the ERANGE. (The bug was introduced in sshfs 3.0.0, but it got triggered only by the new mv behavior.)

Fix:

Upstream fixed the bug in sshfs 3.5.0: https://github.com/libfuse/sshfs/commit/6480b66

Can we get a fix for this?  This is a rather crippling bug.

Comment 5 JM 2019-02-06 11:39:22 UTC
Any change to get in the near future a new mv package to fix this bug?
