The devfs errors should be disappearing from LVM soon, if they haven't
already.

If you convert this to hex (which the lvm.c driver should do), then it is
0x5310, which happens to be "CDROMMULTISESSION" ioctl (or possibly a SCSI
ioctl).  This is probably being called by one of the user tools.

You can find which one is doing this by running each command like:

strace <command>

and it should tell you which one is calling ioctl with this number.
The fault does not lie with LVM, except maybe that it prints an error
message for an unknown ioctl.

Cheers, Andreas

[linux-lvm] lvm -- lvm_blk_ioctl: Unknown Command 21264

[B. ten Berge]

Hi,

I'm using kernel 2.4.1 with the default version of devfs, the default
version of LVM and the default version of reiserfs.

The output comes from dmesg. Does anyone know whether this is a problem --
unkown command 21264 -- and if not, how do I remove this entry ?

devfs: devfs_register(): existing non-device/file entry: "root"
devfs: devfs_register(): device already registered: "group"
lvm -- lvm_blk_ioctl: unknown command 21264
reiserfs: checking transaction log (device 3a:00) ...
Using tea hash to sort names
reiserfs: using 3.5.x disk format
ReiserFS version 3.6.25(w/quota support)
VFS: Mounted root (reiserfs filesystem) readonly.
change_root: old root has d_count=3
Mounted devfs on /dev
Trying to unmount old root ... okay
Freeing unused kernel memory: 196k freed
Adding Swap: 65528k swap-space (priority -1)
Adding Swap: 65528k swap-space (priority -2)
reiserfs: checking transaction log (device 3a:02) ...
Using tea hash to sort names
reiserfs: using 3.5.x disk format

Thanks,

Hi,

My system is a SCSI only system and has a SCSI cdplayer built in - that
might explain a lot.

Thanks,
Bas.
