Hi,
Hello
I read on reiserfs site, faq #1, about max file sizes:
max file size 2^60 - bytes => 1 Ei,
but page cache limits this to 8 Ti on architectures
with 32 bit int for reiserfs 3.6
I do have a reiserfs 3.6 filesystem, on kernel
2.6.12-21mdksmp (mandriva 2006) that would not take a
filesize greater than 2TB!
Filesize in question::
-rw-r--r-- 1 myuser users 2147483647 Aug 1 16:41
myfile.out
Hmm.. actually this file has size 2GB, not 2TB.
Did you try to specify O_LARGEFILE when creating a file?
(man creat)
Error received:
"Filesize limit exceeded"
This filesystem is on a scsi device connected via
Adaptec AIC-7899P U160/m card (if it matters).

Any idea why i would receive this limitation, with a
2.6 kernel and reiserfs 3.6? Can this be corrected to
allow the full file size?
I would appreciate any hints....
I check the kernel-sources for the kernel version i am
running, and i dont see any mention of "large
file/filesystem support" that i recall was available
in older kernel compiles, so it is probably
integrated now?
_Thanks
Richard
