Description nathan 2010-02-04 16:41:05 UTC 
The other was also able to confirm that this works correctly under a Fedora 12 client.

CentOS 5.4 (2.6.18-164.11.1.el5):

find under a GlusterFS mount does not properly detect symlinks. Another user has confirmed that he was able to reproduce this under GlusterFS but under his sshfs test it worked fine.

[root@test GlusterTest]$ mkdir /mnt/GlusterTest/adir/
[root@test GlusterTest]$ cd /mnt/GlusterTest/adir/
[root@test adir]$ touch afile
[root@test adir]$ ln -s afile alink
[root@test adir]$ find . -type l
[root@test adir]$ find . -type f
./alink
./afile
[root@test adir]$ find alink -type l
alink
[root@test adir]$ find afile -type l
[root@test adir]$ 

As you can see, on a directory iteration using getdents() find thinks everything is a file but if I point it at the underlying so it uses lstat() directly then it works correctly.
