Source: kfreebsd-9
Severity: important
Tags: upstream
When a write() cannot transfer as many bytes as requested (because of a file
limit), it fails instead of transferring as many bytes as there is room to
write.
This is a violation of the POSIX standard:
http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007904975/functions/write.html
fsize-lim.c (attached) illustrates the problem. With a freebsd kernel, the
output is:
failed when adding 27 bytes after 59994 bytes (error: File too large)
The expected output (like with a linux kernel) should be:
added 6 bytes instead of 27 bytes after 59994 bytes
failed when adding 27 bytes after 60000 bytes (error: File too large)
