If instead i create a file who's name has 255 characters, all form '1' to '8' this works fine. filesystem component is definitely wrong, as it creates and owns basic system directories. I tend to say this is not a bug - reason for this is in the multibyte characters used in filename. Default limit is 255 bytes - not 255 chars. Therefore it may confuse some people, who use multibyte characters - like letters from Cyrillic. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_file_systems#Limits for the list of filesystems that have limit in chars, not bytes. Closing NOTABUG, even without reassigning to other components. If you see somewhere documented limit is 255 chars, feel free to open it as documentation issue. Thnk you, now i understand were i the problem coming from. Is there a Linux filesystem that supports a longer filename? |
