Subject: LFS Support for Sendfile
Date: Wed, 27 Feb 2002 16:27:30 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <036801c1bfee$b5b0f780$1801010a@Mauser> (raw)

Hello group.

First time poster. If this isn't the right place for this then please point
me in the right direction and accept my apology.

I'm using Linux 2.4.12 on a PIII

I've been playing with sendfile and noticed that it doesn't like 64 bit
filesystems ( _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64). Is there a patch or kernel revision out
there that supports LFS for sendfile?  Or is there some method I can't see
to work around this.

I'm opening a descriptor on a disk partition. I don't need to support
individual block transfers larger than 2 Gig., but would like to serve up
partitions that are larger than 2Gig.

Thanks in advance

Doug
