Any pointers?
The mkstemp() call in make_tempfile() is opening the "memory" file without O_LARGEFILE, so the maximum file size is probably just under 2048MB. For now, see if 2047 will work. It's also possible to replace the mkstemp() call with a wrapper that opens the file with O_LARGEFILE, but that's probably more of an issue for the uml-devel list.
