The following reply was made to PR kern/104389; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Dennis Berger <db@nipsi.de> To: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org, dzs-pr@dzs.fx.org, freebsd-geom@freebsd.org Cc: Subject: Re: kern/104389: [geom] [patch] sys/geom/geom_dump.c doesn't encode XML entities Date: Tue, 06 Mar 2007 16:53:44 +0100 Hi, today I tried PJDs ZFS patches. After invoking zpool create I always got a coredump. After further debugging I recognized gstat isn't working either, which seems to be because of an NTFS partition with a certain name not correctly encoded as XML specification requires. Its the German "Lokaler Datenträger" which is the defaultname for drive "c". So we have to deal with those characters. I'm voting against encoding specification or something like that, but I do recommend using the escape method. For example using "&#e4;" for encoding E4 german ä and < for a "<" character. This way we can escape all illegal characters. What do you suggest? regards, -Dennis Berger
