     <mcsim> Anyway all these are just translators, so there shouldn't be any
       problems.

+
+    <mcsim> Hello. Is it normal that when i try to run du at directory where
+      translator is mounted it says that directory is 'Not a directory'? Here
+      are some examples with different filesystems: paste.debian.net/160699
+      First is ramdisk+ext2fs, second is tmpfs, third is ext2fs.
+    <civodul> i can't reproduce the problem with ext2fs
+    <civodul> perhaps you can try rpctracing it to see where ENOTDIR comes from
+    <mcsim> civodul: when I run du io_stat_request ipc is called. But reply is
+      ((os/kern) invalid address). Where is server code for this ipc? I only
+      found its definition in defs file and that's all.
+    <civodul> mcsim: server code is in libdiskfs + ext2fs, for instance
+    <mcsim> civodul: Does io_stat_request have changed name in server code? I
+      just can't find it. Here are my grep results fore io_stat_request (i was
+      grepping in root of hurd repository: paste.debian.net/160708
+    <youpi> remove _request
+    <youpi> it's just io_stat
+    <mcsim> youpi: thank you

+    <mcsim> youpi: I've corrected everything you said, and pushed code to new
+      branch mplaneta/tmpfs/master-v2
+    <youpi> mcsim: all applied, thanks !
+    <youpi> I'll probably test it a bit and upload a new version of hurd
+    <youpi> mcsim: it seems to be working fine indeed!
+    <mcsim> youpi: thank you for all your reviews, suggestions you gave and
+      corrections you made :)
+    <youpi> and it seems translators indeed work there too
+    <youpi> hopefully it'll work to run the debian installer
+    <youpi> that'd permit to solve memory consumption
+    <pinotree> (so tmpfs works really fine now? great!)
+    <youpi> I could reboot with tmpfs on /tmp and build a package there, yes
+    <mcsim> youpi: yes, I've compiled several packages already, but it does not
+      give big advantage in performance.
+    <youpi> I wasn't really looking for performance, but for correctness :)
+    <youpi> are you using writeback for your /, actually ?
+    <youpi> argl, /run gets triggered before mach-defpager is started
+    <youpi> the X11 socket works there too
+    <youpi> gnu_srs: might your mouse issue with Xorg be related with vnc usage
+      too?
+    <youpi> it seems ENOSPC works fine too
+    <mcsim> youpi: as to writeback. I think yes, because default pager is asked
+      to write data only when this data is evicted.
+    <youpi> I'm talking about kvm
+    <mcsim> youpi: I use real computer.
+    <youpi> ok
+    <youpi> but that indeed means writeback of ext2fs works, which is a good
+      sign :)
