Date: Tue, 8 Apr 2008 11:05:47 +0300 (EEST) From: Meelis Roos <mroos@...ux.ee> To: Linux Kernel list <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org> Subject: file offset corruption on 32-bit machines? Jeff Robertson analyzes the behaviour of different operating systems' 64-bit file offset implementation and concludes that on 32-bit machines, Linux and Solaris lack any locking to keep the two 32-bit halves in sync and this could cause rare file offset corruption. http://jeffr-tech.livejournal.com/21014.html -- Meelis Roos (mroos@...ux.ee) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
