    [$] Tracing the source of filesystem errors

    Date:
    Wed, 07 Aug 2024 14:18:21 +0000

    Description:
    There are lots of places in the kernel where an EINVAL can be
    returned to user space, but it is often unclear what the actual underlying problem is because the errno error codes are too generic. That is the
    problem that Miklos Szeredi
    wanted to discuss in a filesystem session that he led remotely at the 2024 Linux Storage,
    Filesystem, Memory Management, and BPF Summit . He would like to help
    those who are trying to debug problems trace where in the kernel a
    particular error code is being generated.
