Subject: "tail" does not recognize zfs
Date: Tue, 15 Oct 2013 10:19:32 -0400

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
I received the following error message when invoking tail:

tail: unrecognized file system type 0x2fc12fc1 for ‘/var/log/rsyncd’.
please report this to bug-coreutils <at> gnu.org. reverting to polling

The invocation was "tail -vf /var/log/rsyncd" on an OpenSUSE 12.3 Linux/GNU
system using zfs as its standard filesystem.  The zfs/spl version is 0.6.2
(from LLNL's ZFS on Linux codebase).

The coreutils version installed is coreutils-8.17-6.2.1.x86_64.

Thanks,

Thanks for the report.
However, support for ZFS has already been added to tail(1)
and stat(1) in upstream coreutils version 8.20.
Therefore, I'm hereby closing this bug for the coreutils project.

If you wish that patch to be ported to openSUSE-12.3,
then please open a bug in openSUSE's bugzilla:

Have a nice day,
Berny
