Missing Files

[Hway Kiong Lim <limhk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

        Using the following test.sh script :

#!/bin/sh

counter=1000
while [ $counter -le 2000 ]
do

  echo "File number $counter" >> file$counter
  counter=$(( $counter + 1))
done

I try to create 1000 (1001 to be precise) files in an xfs mounted directory. 
This is waht happens:

beauty:/mnt/test# sh /tmp/test.sh
beauty:/mnt/test# ls | wc
    995     995    8955
beauty:/mnt/test# rm *
beauty:/mnt/test# ls
file1144  file1291  file1438  file1585  file1732  file1879
beauty:/mnt/test# ls

Furthermore, these files are those that are missing from the original list.
Any idea what is happening here? 

By the way, the version I am running is checkout of the CVS source around
1130 US EST.

Thanks for bring XFS to Linux

PS: Compiling XFS into the kernal makes it too large to boot :(
