From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.7C-SGI [en] (X11; I; IRIX 6.5 IP32) When using a '*' trying to match a file bigger than 2Gb tcsh (and csh) doesn't 'see' it. bash is ok. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. /bin/tcsh 2. mkdir adir 3. cd adir 4. dd if=/dev/zero of=big-file seek=2047 bs=1024k count=1 5. dd if=/dev/zero of=small-file seek=2046 bs=1024k count=1 6. ls => big-file small-file 7. ls * => small-file 8. ls big* => ls: No match 9. ls big[TAB] => completes to ls big-file Expected Results: I expect to match the '*' in tcsh files smaller and bigger than 2GB.
There are two additional failures related to this bug: 1) in a csh script or on the tcsh command line, "if (-e bigfile) echo exists" will fail if bigfile is > 2G. 2) Big files fail to show up in a Motif file chooser window. The molview program, part of the opengl_for_x test programs available from SGI (?) will show this behavior. We have found the bug to occur with EXT2, EXT3, and filesystems NFS-mounted from IRIX.
Hi- I think this is due to the lack of largefile support in tcsh-6.10.00 for linux. The latest version of tcsh (6.11.00) available from ftp://ftp.astron.com/pub/tcsh includes largefile support. I was able to enable largefile support by adding a patch to the tcsh source rpm. <tcsh-6.10.00-LFS.patch> --- tcsh-6.10.00/config/linux.LFS Tue Apr 20 03:49:09 1999 +++ tcsh-6.10.00/config/linux Wed Apr 25 19:55:50 2001 @@ -116,8 +116,28 @@ * DIRENT Your system has <dirent.h> instead of <sys/dir.h> */ #define DIRENT -/****************** local defines *********************/ +/* + * Get the name space we want. + * + * The more recent defaults for gcc (e.g. on Red Hat 7.0) + * also define _POSIX_C_SOURCE, which throws our code off. + */ + +#define __STRICT_ANSI__ +#define _BSD_SOURCE +#define _SVID_SOURCE +#define _POSIX_SOURCE + +/* + * Large file support from <features.h> + */ + +#define _LARGEFILE_SOURCE +#define _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE +#define _FILE_OFFSET_BITS 64 + +/****************** local defines *********************/ #undef PW_SHADOW #ifndef _PATH_TCSHELL #define _PATH_TCSHELL "/bin/tcsh
tcsh-6.12-3.i386.rpm out of the beta for 8.1 doesn't have this problem.
This is fixed in tcsh in 8.0.
