Here are the simple steps to reproduce ecryptfs problem: Select a folder on gluster volume - say /export/crtest, mount it on a different directory /mnt/test as mount.ecryptfs /export/crtest /mnt/test -o key=passphrase,passphrase_passwd=TestPassword,ecryptfs_cipher=aes,ecryptfs_key_bytes=32,ecryptfs_passthrough=n Once mounted, simply try file operations. If a file is created on the ecrypt mount, the file does not get encrypted. For the same operation on the ext3 or any other disk filesystem, it just works fine. And sometimes, when a file is copied to the ecrypt mount point, a 0 byte file gets created. Regards, Sachidananda.
Sac, Is this happening still ? I don't think we have hit this issue. Can you please try with newer version (3.1.2+) and let us know if its working? Regards, Amar
Please update the status of this bug as its been more than 6months since its filed (bug id < 2000) Please resolve it with proper resolution if its not valid anymore. If its still valid and not critical, move it to 'enhancement' severity.
Junaid, Can you check with Sac if it is still the case? if works, close this bug, otherwise, when you have time, look at what would be causing the failures.
This seems to be a O_DIRECT issue..
after the O_DIRECT fix went into fuse module, we didn't notice this issue.
