i'm now again trying to get attr's working on the ppc ... so i added
the sysctl stuff for it etc. ... but if i do an
attr -s test -V yes /some_file_on_xfs
i only get a "Bad address" ... so far i can follow it to the point
that it gets into sys_attrctl in ext_attr.c and there into the
ATTR_TYPE_LPATH case and the user_path_walk_link gives an error -14
- independent of the existence of the /some_file_on_xfs ... so somehow
my assumption is that somehow maybe the attr_obj_t obj of sys_attrctl
gets trashed on the ppc (this would make clear why there is no
differnece between existence and nonexistence of the file) and thus
everything else later fails ... anyone any more ideas how to get
further from here?
a lot of thanks in advance
