- Hi all, I just got the 2.4.20-19.9_XFS1.3.0.src.rpm from oss.sgi.com and after building, installing and rebooting I noticed the same issue with rpm that hit me with 2.4.20-18.9... Of course after add

- Boy, that's an annoying bug... it's somewhere in the guts of Red Hat's kernel + nptl patches + O_DIRECT + rpm. I think that Red Hat will eventually have a new version of RPM that works with this kern

- The good news is that the current rawhide kernel has commented out that patch (named 1140 there). Unfortunatley there is no changelog entry as to why and how this was done. I played a bit with rawhid

- Thanks, I'll look into it. The old patch was doing more (or less) than the new do_generic_* stuff, e.g. it also did not call invalidate_inode_pages2. Have a look at the rewritten _nolock patch I ende

- I think it does show up in 19.9. For XFS 1.2.0, that was on a different underlying kernel - or have you merged 1.2.0 up to 2.4.20-19.9? Not many things use O_DIRECT, actually. And, well, it won't be

- Simon - the RH9 kernels, where we turned O_DIRECT back on -only- for xfs, together with the nptl patches in the RH9 kernel, seems to cause problems with RPM - even if the RPM db is not on xfs. FWIW,

- So using rpm-4.2, 4.1.1 or 4.0.5 should be fine (see: http://www.geocrawler.com/lists/3/Red-Hat-Linux/87/0/10430019/) That's true and makes sense. If rpm >= 4.2 does the job, I'd rather put a Require

- I think (haven't rebuild rpm for some time), that db4 is not linked against, but has been embedded into rpm's sources. Try ldd on /bin/rpm, you'll find it depending on librpmdb-4.2.so, and not libdb
