--JMrA1WY6/TNbGulc Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline This is a notification to allow you to comment on the patch before the commit. I will commit the latest version of the patch to remove the limitation of the maximal i/o size for read/write syscalls to INT_MAX in the beginning of the next week. The change is available at http://people.freebsd.org/~kib/misc/uio_resid.10.patch various versions of it were discussed with Bruce Evance and David Schultz. Patch does not enable SSIZE_MAX-sized i/o by default, hiding this under debug.iosize_max_clamp sysctl. Effectively, the patch becomes the pass to change various ints into ssize_t. --JMrA1WY6/TNbGulc Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAk8/BNQACgkQC3+MBN1Mb4hfJwCg1th8GR3D9wM0GLOuwUN2DQgX xaQAmwYaZXeITcS+EnpPFCrUcBK1T1XU =CG1z -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --JMrA1WY6/TNbGulc--
