+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #337961 +++ The problem was reported for GFS1, but there are MANY places in the gfs2 utils where it uses libgfs2 function check_for_gfs2 that has the same problem. The function can be tripped up by extra slashes and such. Description of problem: # gfs_grow /mountpoint/ does not work Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gfs-utils-0.1.11-3.el5 How reproducible: # gfs_grow -Tv /gfsdata/ GFS Filesystem /gfsdata/ not found [root@node-1 ~]# gfs_grow -Tv /gfsdata FS: Mount Point: /gfsdata FS: Device: /dev/gfs_vg/gfslv FS: Options: rw,hostdata=jid=0:id=65538:first=1,acl ... Expected results: # gfs_growfs should not care about the last slash! -- Additional comment from rpeterso on 2007-10-22 11:54 EST -- Created an attachment (id=234211) Patch to fix the problem This patch takes care of not only trailing slashes but any extras. For example, /mnt///roth_vg////roth_lv will be correctly interpreted as /mnt/roth_vg/roth_lv -- Additional comment from rpeterso on 2007-10-22 11:55 EST -- Requesting ACK flags so I can ship the fix for RHEL5.2.

Created attachment 236761 [details] patch to fix the problem--try #1 Special notes: 1. Most code paths have been tested. 2. Many of the changed lines of code won't affect anything because they're #IFDEFed out in gfs2_tool and therefore ignored by the compiler. I changed the ignored code to make it easier to implement in the future. 3. There were several instances in the code where the mount path was being opened. This was only done as a form of validation. Since this patch now uses canonical names, there is no longer a need to do this, since we'll find out anyway if the file system is mounted. An open of "/mnt////gfs2/" will fail anyway. So many of these opens were taken out. 4. I need to do a little more testing, but this patch seems to work.
Created attachment 237361 [details] patch to fix the problem (HEAD) Slightly revised (forgot to take a declare out of gfs2_tool.h that was there for the future fix to 349601.)
Created attachment 237371 [details] patch to fix the problem (RHEL5) Here is the RHEL5 version of the patch. The only difference is in the Makefile.
The above patches were both tested on system roth-01. They were committed to CVS at the HEAD and RHEL5 branches for inclusion in RHEL5.2. Changing status to modified.
