2584,vboxfs EPROTO error during file read,Brian Litzinger,,"
I recently attemped to use vboxsf/vboxfs to make an Ubuntu 8.04
host filesystem available in an Ubuntu 8.04 guest instance.

All worked fine initially.  A relatively simple application
in the guest reads and writes files into a folder in the shared
directory.

Every once in a while the read() system call returns EPROTO.
However, simply repeating the open/read/close works.

It was failing about 1% of the time.

I mounted the filesystem via NFS rather than vboxfs and the operations
work 100% 24 hours per day for days on end.

The operations also work days on end if the files are read/written to the filesystem
inside the guest.

I was unable to find anything in the log files at the time of the failed read calls.",defect,closed,guest additions,VirtualBox 2.0.2,obsolete,,,Linux,Linux
