Bug ID: 22116 Summary: binutil ar abort Product: binutils Version: unspecified Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: binutils Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org Reporter: bil0w at hotmail dot com Target Milestone: --- The ar_size field in an archive with ar file format is 10 bytes long. So I naturally created a file of 10 gigabytes then tested ar to see how it deals with it. $ dd if=/dev/zero of=zeros.img count=1 bs=1 seek=$((10 * 1024 * 1024 * 1024 - 1)) $ ar rc foo.a zeros.img [1] 31479 abort ar rc foo.a zeros.img Is this an expected behavior, or should there be an error message? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils
