--- Comment #4 from Jan Engelhardt <jengelh at inai dot de> --- Come to think of it, instead of truncation, compiler and linkers could: * unlink (optional, but worthwhile, since it retains the disk space usage pattern as truncation) * create temp file in target directory (O_TMPFILE where available, otherwise plain) * rename That way, any intermediate state would not be exposed. Files of size 0 would then be legitimate 0-sized files only. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
