NFS fails on files >= 4 Gig Can someone confirm please.
uname -r # 6.1-RELEASE (both hosts)
# echo "1024 1024 * 4 * 1 + p" | dc # 4194305
dd if=/dev/zero of=junk bs=1k count=4194305
ls -l junk # 4294968320 bytes
rsh an_nfs_host ls -l /host/`hostname -s`/usr/tmp/junk # 1024 byte size!
# with count=4194304, ls shows 0 bytes.
It's not AMD failing, but NFS, as with an /etc/amd.map with a
non NFS entry for my host "laps" for efficiency (in case some
shell on host laps mounts itself), the full size 4294968320 is seen.
/etc/amd.map
/defaults type:=host;fs:=${autodir}/${rhost};rhost:=${key}
laps type:=link;fs:=..
It's not just ls, cmp fails too, ( as also does my
http://berklix.com/~jhs/src/bsd/jhs/bin/public/cmpd/cmpd.c )
cmp -z junk /host/laps/usr/tmp/junk # junk /host/laps/usr/tmp/junk differ: size
Is send-pr appropriate ?
