* debuge2fs not displaying /dev folder [not found] <CAD6i1f+GzTqewnV=2OefPTGT8YFzNo6+zmoPvxuJXMb9r0ABng@mail.gmail.com> @ 2013-01-15 6:01 ` Prashant Shah 2013-01-15 17:43 ` Andreas Dilger 2013-01-15 20:14 ` Theodore Ts'o 0 siblings, 2 replies; 6+ messages in thread From: Prashant Shah @ 2013-01-15 6:01 UTC (permalink / raw) To: linux-ext4 Hi, When using debuge2fs on a ext3 partition the /dev partition does not show any entries at all. While running it on a ext4 partition only part of entries are shown for /dev. Below is the list of files and folder within /dev folder residing on a ext4 partition. Using "debugfs" shows around 92 entries while "ls" shows around 217 entries. A block level dump also shows the same folders as "debugfs". --------------------- debugfs -------------------- 3014659 (12) . 2 (12) .. 3014663 (12) fd 3014664 (16) mapper 3014665 (12) pts 3014666 (12) shm 3014667 (16) agpgart 3014668 (16) audio 3014669 (16) audio1 3014670 (16) audio2 3014671 (16) audio3 3014672 (16) audioctl 3014673 (16) console 3014674 (12) core 3014675 (12) dsp 3014676 (12) dsp1 3014677 (12) dsp2 3014678 (12) dsp3 3014679 (12) full 3014680 (12) fuse 3014681 (12) kmem 3014682 (16) loop0 3014683 (16) loop1 3014684 (16) loop2 3014685 (16) loop3 3014686 (16) loop4 3014687 (16) loop5 3014688 (16) loop6 3014689 (16) loop7 3014690 (12) mem 3014691 (16) midi0 3014692 (16) midi00 3014693 (16) midi01 3014694 (16) midi02 3014695 (16) midi03 3014696 (16) midi1 3014697 (16) midi2 3014698 (16) midi3 3014699 (16) mixer 3014700 (16) mixer1 3014701 (16) mixer2 3014702 (16) mixer3 3014703 (20) mpu401data 3014704 (20) mpu401stat 3014705 (12) null 3014706 (12) port 3014707 (12) ptmx 3014708 (12) ram 3014709 (12) ram0 3014710 (12) ram1 3014711 (16) ram10 3014712 (16) ram11 3014713 (16) ram12 3014714 (16) ram13 3014715 (16) ram14 3014716 (16) ram15 3014717 (16) ram16 3014718 (12) ram2 3014719 (12) ram3 3014720 (12) ram4 3014721 (12) ram5 3014722 (12) ram6 3014723 (12) ram7 3014724 (12) ram8 3014725 (12) ram9 3014726 (16) random 3014727 (16) rmidi0 3014728 (16) rmidi1 3014729 (16) rmidi2 3014730 (16) rmidi3 3014731 (20) sequencer 3014732 (16) smpte0 3014733 (16) smpte1 3014734 (16) smpte2 3014735 (16) smpte3 3014736 (16) sndstat 3014737 (16) stderr 3014738 (16) stdin 3014739 (16) stdout 3014740 (12) tty 3014741 (12) tty0 3014742 (12) tty1 3014743 (12) tty2 3014744 (12) tty3 3014745 (12) tty4 3014746 (12) tty5 3014747 (12) tty6 3014748 (12) tty7 3014749 (12) tty8 3014750 (12) tty9 3014751 (16) urandom 3014752 (2784) zero --------- from ls ----------- autofs ecryptfs loop6 pts random sr0 tty2 tty35 tty50 tty9 ttyS22 uinput vcsa2 block fb0 loop7 ram0 rfkill stderr tty20 tty36 tty51 ttyprintk ttyS23 urandom vcsa3 bsg fd loop-control ram1 rtc stdin tty21 tty37 tty52 ttyS0 ttyS24 usbmon0 vcsa4 btrfs-control full lp0 ram10 rtc0 stdout tty22 tty38 tty53 ttyS1 ttyS25 usbmon1 vcsa5 bus fuse mapper ram11 sda tty tty23 tty39 tty54 ttyS10 ttyS26 usbmon2 vcsa6 cdrom hidraw0 mcelog ram12 sda1 tty0 tty24 tty4 tty55 ttyS11 ttyS27 vboxdrv vg cdrw hpet mem ram13 sda2 tty1 tty25 tty40 tty56 ttyS12 ttyS28 vboxnetctl vga_arbiter char input net ram14 sda3 tty10 tty26 tty41 tty57 ttyS13 ttyS29 vboxusb zero console kmsg network_latency ram15 sda4 tty11 tty27 tty42 tty58 ttyS14 ttyS3 vcs core kvm network_throughput ram2 sda5 tty12 tty28 tty43 tty59 ttyS15 ttyS30 vcs1 cpu log null ram3 sda6 tty13 tty29 tty44 tty6 ttyS16 ttyS31 vcs2 cpu_dma_latency loop0 oldmem ram4 sda7 tty14 tty3 tty45 tty60 ttyS17 ttyS4 vcs3 disk loop1 parport0 ram5 sg0 tty15 tty30 tty46 tty61 ttyS18 ttyS5 vcs4 dm-0 loop2 port ram6 sg1 tty16 tty31 tty47 tty62 ttyS19 ttyS6 vcs5 dri loop3 ppp ram7 shm tty17 tty32 tty48 tty63 ttyS2 ttyS7 vcs6 dvd loop4 psaux ram8 snapshot tty18 tty33 tty49 tty7 ttyS20 ttyS8 vcsa dvdrw loop5 ptmx ram9 snd tty19 tty34 tty5 tty8 ttyS21 ttyS9 vcsa1 Regards. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

Yep, I'm guessing you are seeing some installer-created devices in the root fs's /dev but that something has been mounted over the top of it. -Eric > Cheers, Andreas ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

If it's something like this, you are using a pseudo-filesystem for /dev: % df /dev Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on udev 10240 0 10240 0% /dev In that case, what debugfs is showing is the entries in your /dev directory before the udev file system is mounted on top of /dev.

I booted into live cd and listed the files in the unmounted /dev and I can see the exact same number of files as shown by debugfs. Regards. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread
