Hi,
With coreutils-8.30, I'm getting a strange error for the 'mv' command
when used to rename a file mounted as a 'fuse' share:
$ mv ~/mnt/sshfs/status-2018080{6,7}
mv: cannot move '/home/john/mnt/sshfs/status-20180806' to
'/home/john/mnt/sshfs/status-20180807': Numerical result out of range
$ mv ~/mnt/sshfs/qq ~/mnt/sshfs/qqq
mv: cannot move '/home/john/mnt/sshfs/qq' to '/home/john/mnt/sshfs/qqq':
Numerical result out of range
This does not occur for coreutils-8.29, and appears to be associated
with the SYS_renameat2 syscall added in version 8.30. It also does not
occur for 'local' file renaming.
The error "Numerical result out of range" looks like it may be coming
from the network stack via 'fuse.'
I realize that this error may be coming from a number of places other
than coreutils 'mv' (e.g., the kernel/fuse area, sshfs, or libfuse, but
I'm wondering if anyone intimately familiar with the SYS_renameat2
rework in coreutils-8.30 'mv' might have any ideas on how to pin this
one done.
