Hello,
One of my workmates created a >2Gb file on a MS-Windows server. That works perfectly. He exported the partition and looked at it from another MS-Windows machine, where he can see the right size. But when we look at the file from a linux machine, the reported size is plain wrong (it is actually the real size on 32-bit, extended to 64 bit as a signed 32 bit value, thus prefixed with 0xffffffff, and then printed as an unsigned 64 bit value.). Not only does `ls -l' not work, but other accesses to the file are also impossible.
Here is a fix (tested on 2.2.16 and 2.4.18) :
--- include/linux/smb.hbk Fri May 31 16:43:54 2002 +++ include/linux/smb.h Fri May 31 17:55:49 2002 @@ -85,7 +85,7 @@ uid_t f_uid; gid_t f_gid; kdev_t f_rdev; - off_t f_size; + size_t f_size; time_t f_atime; time_t f_mtime; time_t f_ctime; Is it possible to incorporate that in the official linux kernel tree ?
Thanks in advance
