It's not ntfsresize isssue, it's a gentoo kernel one. ntfsresize, actually libntfs, caught a serious gentoo kernel bug. The NTFS kernel driver and ntfsresize have nothing to do with each other, former is completely kernel space, later is completely user space (but a lot of Anton's code is shared). The different behaviour with the same ntfs driver (vanilla vs gentoo kernel) also proves there are some issues with the gentoo kernel. > Now I enabled NTFS_DEBUG on both my gentoo and vanilla+ntfs > kernels, attached two logs with my results.

I've seen this issue before for the userspace library if attribute list attribute was corrupted (not fixed yet, I reported it to Anton but he made a wrong fix and I didn't have time to look at it since). > any hint how could I increase the size of the kernel debug buffer? It's ok, IMHO the driver just stucked there, we only have to figure out why. Thanks, Szaka |
