From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: "Ersek, Laszlo" Subject: write(2) / SIGXFSZ Date: Thu, 4 Mar 2010 01:14:08 +0100 (CET) Message-ID: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed Return-path: Sender: linux-man-owner-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org To: Michael Kerrisk / Linux man-pages Cc: linux-man-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org List-Id: linux-man@vger.kernel.org Hi, we were having a discussion in the comp.unix.programmer Usenet newsgroup, starting with Message-ID: . Consequently, I'd like to report two bugs (in separate e-mails): (1/2) write(2) does not mention SIGXFSZ, even though Linux (the kernel) does generate SIGXFSZ for the thread calling write(), when appropriate. SUSv[234] links for write(2): http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007908775/xsh/write.html http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/000095399/functions/write.html http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/write.html I'm using the manpages-dev package, version 3.05-1, under Debian Lenny. However, before sending this report, I've verified the bug's existence in the online page under http://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/online/pages/man2/write.2.html If this goes anywhere on linux-man@vger, please keep me CC'd.
