Attaching a 2M picture of a screenshot and spamming multiple lists at once puts unnecessary load on the mail servers as it must fan that out to all list recipients, even where it is not relevant. Please don't do that in the future, when a text paste to a single targeted list is sufficient and much more bandwidth-friendly. The sentence is from the glibc info pages. And the text is correct as written. It is talking about a single call that "may fail", not "many failures" of multiple calls. I am replying solely to the coreutils list to drop the bug from the coreutils database, rather than spamming all the other lists mentioned in your original mail (if it HAD been a bug, the glibc manual also mentions that you should report bugs in the manual to https://sourceware.org/bugzilla, or at a bare minimum the libc mailing list - which I did not see in your scattershot report). -- Eric Blake, Principal Software Engineer Red Hat, Inc. +1-919-301-3226 Virtualization: qemu.org | libvirt.org
