Description Joe.Jin 2005-10-21 07:53:17 UTC
Description of problem:
On RHES4 update2, when I compiled the kernel(2.6.9-22) with reiserfs support,
but failed. On patch file "linux-2.6.13-key-reiserfs.patch", only fixed the file
"include/linux/reiserfs_fs.h"  defined of function reiserfs_key, but not fixed
the body of function on file "fs/reiserfs/stree.c", it may case error!

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.6.9-22

How reproducible:
rebuild kernel with reiserfs support.

Actual results:
error on compile.

Expected results:

hmmm. thanks for the patch. however, we don't support re-compiled kernels.

Comment 3 Randy Zagar 2005-10-25 23:29:59 UTC
In kernel-2.6.9-22.EL, there is a problem with fs/reiserfs/stree.c

Line 343 contains the code:

    inline  const struct  key * get_rkey  (

This line needs to be changed to read:

    inline  const struct  reiserfs_key * get_rkey  (

Please fix this problem and renew support for kernel-unsupported-* rpm packages

EXT3 just doesn't cut it with multi-terabyte filesystems.
