#9763: Deleting 62k files spams the syslog -----------------------+------------------------------ Reporter: humdinger | Owner: nobody Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: R1 Component: - General | Version: R1/Development Keywords: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Has a Patch: 0 Platform: All | -----------------------+------------------------------ This is hrev45646. I have deleted (SHIFT+DEL) a folder with over 62k files. Takes a while...[[BR]] In Tracker the "TrackerTaskLoop" thread is very busy and in the kernel team the "syslog sender". The syslog is practically spammed with this entry: {{{ KERN: bfs: Match:900: General system error KERN: bfs: KERN: query value conversion to 0x54494d45 requested! }}} Hmm. checkfs says: {{{ in (inode = 7927634), has blocks already set 145620 nodes checked, 0 blocks not allocated, 512 blocks already set, 0 blocks could be freed files 137596 directories 7311 attributes 353 attr. dirs 321 indices 39 direct block runs 150036 (21.68 GiB) indirect block runs 4616 (in 121 array blocks, 8.45 GiB) double indirect block runs 512 (in 1 array blocks, 2.00 MiB) }}} The syslog shows many entries of this kind: {{{ KERN: block 10032295 is already set!!! KERN: bfs: double indirect->runs->run: block_run(153, 5287, 2): blocks 10032295 - 10032296 are already set! KERN: block 10032670 is already set!!! KERN: bfs: double indirect->runs->run: block_run(153, 5662, 2): blocks 10032670 - 10032671 are already set! KERN: block 10032968 is already set!!! KERN: bfs: double indirect->runs->run: block_run(153, 5960, 2): blocks 10032968 - 10032969 are already set! KERN: block 10033740 is already set!!! }}} Not good, I suppose. Do I need to re-Initialize the partition? -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/9763> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
