XFS sets sb->s_maxbytes in xfs_max_file_offset to: (1 << BITS_PER_LONG - 1) - 1 = 2**63 - 1 = LLONG_MAX. So no matter how we look at it, this operation should not return EFBIG on XFS. > (test programme cfrbig.c attached) > > xfs has it done successfully, while ext4 returns EFBIG. ext4 has a max file size of 2**32 * blocksize, so it doesn't support files larger than 16TB. So it will give EFBIG on this test. /me compiles and runs the test program on his workstation: $ ls -l foobar -rw------- 1 dave dave 10737418240 Apr 12 14:46 foobar $ ./a.out foobar bar ret 65537 $ ls -l bar -rw-r--r-- 1 dave dave 9223372036854775807 Aug 7 22:11 bar $ That looks like a successful copy to me, not EINVAL or EFBIG...
