They have a fix we don't, so between that and whether or not it's fixed on bloody (you're on r151020, right mini?), I'll have to try it myself. It's possible the Joyent fix (outside LX, not yet upstreamed) may cure what ails you.</div><div id="AppleMailSignature"><br></div><div id="AppleMailSignature">FYI,</div><div id="AppleMailSignature">Dan<br><br>Sent from my iPhone (typos, autocorrect, and all)</div><div><br>On Jan 16, 2017, at 1:02 PM, Mini Trader <<a href="mailto:miniflowtrader@gmail.com">miniflowtrader@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br><br></div><blockquote type="cite"><div><div dir="ltr">1.

I believe I found why the system is falsely reporting that the current directory does not exist and have created a simple program to reproduce the problem. The problem seems to be related to when v_path in the vnode struct goes above a certain number of characters. This will only break on LOFS if inside the LX zone. Every time a program performs a chdir('..') and up to another dir the system stored working directory is falsely growing.<br>
<br>
</span>Have you tried this on a native zone (just to make sure) as well?<br>

</span>Does it matter where (global zone, inside LX zone) these directories gets created?<br>

</span>I'm forwarding this note on to Joyent, so they can see what's going on. I think this may be an LX bug, but I'm not sure.<br>
