[Bug 9607] New: Wine causes process hang in kernel when running applications from FAT partition
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9607 Summary: Wine causes process hang in kernel when running applications from FAT partition Product: Wine Version: 0.9.39. Platform: Other OS/Version: other Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: wine-kernel AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: krzysiek-bugs.winehq.org(a)lichota.net Distro: Kubuntu Dapper 6.06 Wine: 0.9.9-0ubuntu2 (tested also with 0.9.39 from winehq.org) Kernel: 2.6.15-29-386 (2.6.15-29.58) This is kernel bug, but affects only wine, so workaround in wine is easier. When .exe is run from FAT partition, wine process gets stuck in kernel in "D" state and cannot be killed. I have straced the process and it appears it is stuck in: ioctl(9, TUNIOCGETINFO or VFAT_IOCTL_READDIR_BOTH This way user can prevent unmounting FAT partition by running wine on FAT partition. To reproduce: 1. Mount any FAT volume (for example USB pendrive) 2. Copy some file.exe file to it. 3. Run: wine /media/mydisk/file.exe 4. Wine hangs and cannot be killed. Possible workaround is to recompile wine with "#define VFAT_IOCTL_READDIR_BOTH" in dlls/ntdll/directory.c commented out. I have checked that it works.

Invalid right from the gate.

Wine does not support running apps from a FAT partition.
According to http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ,"Does it matter what filesystem I use?" <quote> Wine is written to be file system independent, so MS Windows applications will install and run under virtually any file system supported by your brand of UNIX. </quote> Wine already has workarounds for various kernel bugs in VFAT driver, so adding one more shouldn't hurt IMO.

Wine contains hooks which are valid only on FAT partition, like the mentioned VFAT_IOCTL_READDIR_BOTH ioctl. I will re-test on wine 0.44, but from reading the source I am pretty sure it is the same. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Kernel 2.6.15 is though used in Ubuntu 6.06, which is long-term supported version, so it should be spotted by some people. I have come across the bug when some other user reported he cannot run application from his Windows partition (which used FAT), but FAT Windows partitions are rare this time. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

I don't know if it is fixed in newer kernel versions. If it is, I guess you should close the bug. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
