#9856 closed defect (fixed)
Recursive delete in shared folder on Solaris fails with device busy => Fixed in SVN
| Reported by: | foobar42 | Owned by: | |

Description
Trying to run 'rm -rf <some-dir>' inside a shared folder results in numerous
rm: Unable to remove directory <some/sub/directory>: Device busy
and most directories are not removed (though all files are).
The issue appears to be related to the new mmap support, as building the vboxfs
with VBOXVFS_WITH_MMAP undef'd in vboxfs_vnode.c "fixes" the issue.
Note that is basically identical to #6513, with the same setup (i.e. host is Linux with ext4, guest is Solaris 10u8) and same behaviour of both rm and rmdir as in that report.
