search for: _large_files

Dear rsync-developers, on AIX5.1 with 32-bit kernel one can have large-file support. rsync in principle supports it correctly since the flag _LARGE_FILES is treated correctly in the /usr/include/*.h But there is one point missing, the mkstemp is not opening a large file. So syncing large files crash after 2GB. To avoid this one could either put a #ifdef _LARGE_FILES #undef HAVE_SECURE_MKSTEMP #endif at the beginning of syscall.c or in rsync.h, or...

Hi, I tried to compile rsync-2.5.2 on Solaris 5.7 Ultra-2 machine, 5.7 on Ultra-2 is running 64 bit, but, when I ran configure, it said no for largefile, I thought 2.5.2 will support large file? Is that true? Thanks, Jennifer

Is there something in config.h I can change to support large files (I see "#undef _LARGE_FILES" but the comment above it indicates it is only for AIX)? If I can't get rsync to copy large files, is there a way to get it to skip them, so that the rest of the files do get synced? Thanks Doug

...ust wanted to relate the solution to a problem I was having to hopefully save someone else a day of frustration. I'm using rsync-2.5.5 on AIX 4.3, compiled with gcc 2.95.3. The file I was sync'ing was very large (>2GB). Despite being configured with --enable-largefiles (which #defines _LARGE_FILES properly for AIX), and despite the fact that the initial transfer of said file worked fine, I would always get the following error when trying to sync up the file: write failed on myfile.txt.3 : Error 0 rsync error: error in file IO (code 11) at receiver.c(272) rsync: connection unexpectedly...

I have discovered that rsync 2.5.6 uses the mkstemp() routine wich do not have a 64bits version into the AIX libc. A very simple workaround to the big files writing rsync pb. is to not use this routine that create files w/ mkstemp() by modifying the "syscall.c" source file at line 154 as following : #if defined(HAVE_SECURE_MKSTEMP) && defined(HAVE_FCHMOD) become #if

The following patches shave some rough edges off the tools build system to allow cross compiling for at least arm32 and arm64 based on the Debian/Ubuntu multiarch infrastructure. They also add the necessary fixes to build for arm64 (which I have only tried cross, not native). I have posted some instructions on how to compile with these patches on the wiki:
