http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=495802 Summary: setfacl call on file on NFS filesystem yields: <file>: invalid agument Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: i686 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: krienke@uni-koblenz.de QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; de; rv:1.9.0.8) Gecko/2009032600 SUSE/3.0.8-1.1.1 Firefox/3.0.8 Hello, since the latest 11.1 kernel update (2.6.27.21-0.1-pae) setfacl no longer works if a ACL is set on a file that is on a NFS filesystem. Before the update of the kernel this worked just fine. The server side did not change at all only the client changed by updateing the kernel. Here an example what happens for a file xx that is on a NFS (V3) mounted filesystem: [~] 1006 > ll xx -rw-r--r-- 1 me employee 0 Apr 17 08:08 xx [krienke@bliss:~] 1007 > setfacl -m u:auser:r xx setfacl: xx: Invalid argument After this the ACL has not been set. The very same problem emerged after the update to the latest kernel eg on SLES10 SP2. Setting ACLs on local filesystems is no problem. The NFS filesystem is mounted with the following options (extracted from from mount|grep filesystem): rw,intr,sloppy,nfsvers=3,proto=tcp,mountproto=udp Thanks Rainer Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. mout a filesystem via NFS V3 (other versions not tested. NFS server is a SLES10SP2 machine, did not test other servers. 2. try to set an ACL on a file on this NFS filesystem -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
