Description
Because libsqlfs is a bit sloppy and uses int@s where it should always use @size_t
, there is currently a 4gig limit on the size of each file. This shouldn't be too hard to fix, it will be mostly a matter of going through and making sure that the variables are all declared size_t
whenever required.
Associated revisions
change file size vars to size_t to get 64-bit file sizes on 64-bit systems
size_t is already used throughout for sizes, but perhaps it should be long
so that there are 64-bit file sizes on all platforms.
