Ah yes, that's the reason. I'm running on x86_64. 32-bit platforms actually work if you set O_LARGEFILE. From /usr/incude/bits/fcntl.h: #ifdef __USE_LARGEFILE64 # if __WORDSIZE == 64 # define O_LARGEFILE 0 # else # define O_LARGEFILE 0100000 # endif #endif If I include <asm/fcntl.h> instead of <fcntl.h>, it gets set to 0x8000, and my large file fanotify test works. Or, of course, I can define that flag locally and use it. But it feels like I shouldn't have to do that. -Justin > > To reproduce your problem, could you, please, provide the Linux configuration > file (look in your /boot directory) and a link to the source of the Linux > kernel version you use.
