nilfs2 not garbage collecting

Hello,

I'm using NILFS2 as the root filesystem of an ArchLinux on my EeePC
900A. The filesystem has been created last November.
At the moment there's no more space left, `lscp` shows that there are
2648 checkpoints, but nilfs_cleanerd is in idle.
I tried to tweak nilfs_cleanerd configuration, but couldn't achieve anything.

Is it possible to know why nilfs_cleanerd isn't collecting the
checkpoints, or force it to collect them?

Thanks,
Paolo

Hi Paolo,

By the way, did you try to use the rmcp utility? This utility is dedicated by removing of checkpoints by hands.

With the best regards,
Vyacheslav Dubeyko.

Could you share more details about your issue?

It is interested to know:
1. mount output.
2. nilfs_cleanerd configuration.
3. system log content related to NILFS2 or nilfs_cleanerd.
4. ps ax output.
5. cat /proc/partitions.
6. df -h

I think that these info can be starting point for analysis of your issue.

With the best regards,
Vyacheslav Dubeyko.
