General + +* Doesn't pass the "ustar-all-quickest.tar" test file with long links. +* io_map () not implemented (gcc uses it unfortunately). +* netfs.c (netfs_get_dirents): too much memory may be allocated (mmap'd). + + +2. Writable fs bugs + +* UIDs/GIDs are not properly handled (uses numbers instead of strings). +* Deadlock when syncing the filesystem at tarfs.c:tarfs_sync_fs when + trying to acquire the lock of a node (couldn't reproduce it though). + + +3. Zip stores bug + +* Missing feature: RPC encoding/decoding stuff not supported. + + Note: The gzip and bzip2 stores sharing most of their code, there is a + high probability that any bug occuring with on backend should also + occur with the other. If you encounter a bug, please try using + both backends to see if that makes any difference. The code is + also very close to what's in cache.c. + + +For more bugs, "grep '\(FIXME\|XXX\)' *.c" should do the trick. |
