Forget VPN == macFUSE locks up the OS #826

Closed FGasper closed 8 months ago

FGasper commented 3 years ago

  1. Attempt to sshfs -o noapplexattr -o noappledouble root@felipe.dev.cpanel.net:/whatever /some/local/path. Note that sshfs will stall. CTRL-C to end it.

  2. Type mount, and see that the mount table lists the mount, even though the SSH connection will have failed.

  3. Note that Chrome, Brave, et al. fail to load anything … they sit there spinning for a long time but never actually load a page. (Firefox, though, will work.)

  4. Try the sshfs command again, and note that you’ve lost all control over that process.

  5. Note that even sudo umount -f /some/local/path fails: Resource busy

The failure is step 1, for me, is because I forgot to start up the VPN before running sshfs … which is what those outside my organization should also see.

I’m not sure if this is an sshfs or a macFUSE problem. I’ve dealt with it for some time now but only just now realized reliable reproduction steps.

Thank you for your time!

I note that the same behaviour manifests if I do have the VPN on but neglect to ssh-add the key then also CTRL-C out when sshfs asks me to Enter passphrase for key ….

I believe this bug wasn’t formerly quite so reliable, but I don’t know for certain.

I had a similar freeze experience, my reproducible step; trying to mount on local /Volumes, that seems to be a very bad idea but I didn't have any info to say otherwise, as soon as I mounted outside of that (ex I used /opt/somemountpoint) I was fine, no more freezing

The inability to unmount makes me wonder if this is related: https://github.com/osxfuse/osxfuse/issues/793#issuecomment-945151674 If a FUSE client "successfully" mounts, but then doesn't respond to getattr, statfs, etc., it can make it impossible to shut down.

Same problem here, this is very frustrating. Every time I run the command sshfs if, for some reason, connectivity cannot be estabilished or I press CTRL-C, the entire system goes into unusable state! I have to hard reboot...this is not nice at all :-(

Same problem here

The issue is fixed in the next macFUSE release. See https://github.com/osxfuse/osxfuse/issues/793#issuecomment-1985966465 for details.

The new 4.6.2 release addresses this issue. Let me know in case you are still running into mount issues.
