[Samba] Incomplete dir listing (ext2fs / FreeBSD)

Hi,
I moved a disk with ext2fs from a Linux box (SuSE) into my FreeBSD6.2
box. Some directories on that disk are shared to my Windows boxes via
v3.0.26a (according to smbd -V). A couple of directories contain a large
number of files (hundreds to thousands).
The list of files is incomplete using Windows clients or
smbclient on FreeBSD.
If I copy the directories to a disk using ufs, the
file listings on Windows / smbclient are complete.
With my last test I created files named "file-0150.file" down to
"file-0000.file" in a directory and fetched a directory listing from a
Windows client. I see files with number 0150 down to 0122.
With log level = 10 the following entries show up in the log files,
which I hope are the most relevant ones:
[2007/11/06 23:42:45, 5] smbd/trans2.c:get_lanman2_dir_entry(1255)
get_lanman2_dir_entry found private
<pathtomyfiles>/tmp2/file-0022.file fname=file-0022.file
(this is the last file which I see in the directory listing)
[2007/11/06 23:42:45, 5] smbd/trans2.c:get_lanman2_dir_entry(1255)
get_lanman2_dir_entry found <pathtomyfiles>/tmp2/file-0021.file
fname=file-0021.file
(this one is not shown in the list)
[2007/11/06 23:42:45, 9] smbd/trans2.c:get_lanman2_dir_entry(1635)
get_lanman2_dir_entry: out of space
(to me looks like the entries found so far filled the buffer and should
be sent.)
[2007/11/06 23:42:45, 3] smbd/trans2.c:call_trans2findnext(2015)
call_trans2findnext: dirhandle = 256, max_data_bytes = 16384,
maxentries = 1366, close_after_request=0, close_if_end = 2
requires_resume_key
= 4 resume_key = 0 resume name = file-0022.file continue=0 level = 260
(looks like the entries following the specified file shall be fetched.)
[2007/11/06 23:42:45, 3] smbd/trans2.c:call_trans2findnext(2115)
dptr_num is 256, mask = *, attr = 16, dirptr=(0x83702C0,3140)

[2007/11/06 23:42:45, 10] smbd/mangle_hash2.c:is_mangled(276)

is_mangled_component file-0022.file (len 14) ?
[2007/11/06 23:42:45, 8] smbd/trans2.c:get_lanman2_dir_entry(1161)
get_lanman2_dir_entry:readdir on dirptr 0x83702c0 now at offset -1
(The line above seems to be the point where the problem shows its symptoms.)
[2007/11/06 23:42:45, 5] smbd/trans2.c:call_trans2findnext(2200)
call_trans2findnext: closing dptr_num = 256
[2007/11/06 23:42:45, 4] smbd/dir.c:dptr_close_internal(238)
closing dptr key 256
I already decided that I'll switch to ufs.
However, I wonder whether it is worth investigating the problem. (I
would keep a little ext2fs place to have a test environment for that.)
Since the problem does not appear on ufs, it smells a bit like an ext2fs
problem just under FreeBSD. Especially since everything was ok when the
disk was in a Linux box.
What do you think about it?
In case its not primarily a problem in samba code, what lower level
problem could cause this behaviour in the samba code?
Thanks and best wishes, Rainer
