Mounting reiserfs partitions gives warning message
Last modified: 2013-07-02 22:28:54 EDT
Description of problem: Warning message is reported in /var/log/dmesg when mounting reiserfs partitions. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): reiserfs-utils-3.6.19-2 kernel-smp-2.6.16-1.2111_FC4 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a reiserfs partition using 'mkfs -t reiserfs'. 2. Modify /etc/fstab to mount partition. 3. Reboot to get partition mounted. 4. Look in /var/log/dmesg for warning message. Actual results: /var/log/dmesg shows message: ReiserFS: cciss/c0d3p1: found reiserfs format "3.6" with standard journal ReiserFS: cciss/c0d3p1: using ordered data mode ReiserFS: cciss/c0d3p1: journal params: device cciss/c0d3p1, size 8192, journal first block 18, max trans len 1024, max batch 900, max commit age 30, max trans age 30 ReiserFS: cciss/c0d3p1: checking transaction log (cciss/c0d3p1) ReiserFS: cciss/c0d3p1: Using r5 hash to sort names ReiserFS: cciss/c0d3p1: warning: reiserfs: cannot create /proc/fs/reiserfs/cciss/c0d3p1 Expected results: No warning message expected. Additional info: The partition seems to work fine. Running /sbin/reiserfsck shows no problem with the partition. /proc/fs/reiserfs contains the file 'version', but nothing else. We have 3 reiserfs partitions created, they all give the same warning message. The hardware is an HP DL360 with a CCISS 5i SCSI controller.
This report targets the FC3 or FC4 products, which have now been EOL'd. Could you please check that it still applies to a current Fedora release, and either update the target product or close it ? Thanks.
This problem does not occur with FC6. Closing call.
