write(2) / SIGXFSZ

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

we were having a discussion in the comp.unix.programmer Usenet newsgroup, starting with Message-ID: <e8e1cb1d-9693-4803-bf29-b4828de384e0@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>. Consequently, I'd like to report two bugs (in separate e-mails):

(1/2) write(2) does not mention SIGXFSZ, even though Linux (the kernel) does generate SIGXFSZ for the thread calling write(), when appropriate.

SUSv[234] links for write(2):

http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007908775/xsh/write.html
http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/000095399/functions/write.html
http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/write.html

I'm using the manpages-dev package, version 3.05-1, under Debian Lenny. However, before sending this report, I've verified the bug's existence in the online page under

http://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/online/pages/man2/write.2.html

If this goes anywhere on linux-man@vger, please keep me CC'd.

Thank you very much,
lacos
