    Test Output

    TEST PURPOSE #18
    If the implementation allows creation of a file
    description with an offset maximum less than the
    largest size it supports for an off_t:
    EFBIG in errno and return -1 on a call to int
    ftruncate(int fildes, off_t length) when the file is a
    regular file and length is greater than the offset
    maximum established in the open file descriptor associated with fildes.
    PREP: Check for existence of programming environments
    PREP: Obtain off_t size in XBS5_ILP32_OFF32 environment
    PREP: Obtain off_t size in XBS5_ILP32_OFFBIG environment
    PREP: Obtain off_t size in XBS5_ILP64_OFF64 environment
    PREP: Obtain off_t size in XBS5_LPBIG_OFFBIG environment
    PREP: Open communication pipe for child
    PREP: Execute a program compiled in XBS5_ILP32_OFF32(32-bit off_t)
    environment that:
    opens a regular file
    execs program compiled in XBS5_ILP32_OFFBIG(64-bit off_t) environment,
    passing it the open file descriptor
    TEST: ftruncate returns -1 and sets errno to
    EFBIG when length exceeds the offset maximum
    PREP: Fork a child
    PREP: Connect child's pipe to stdout
    PREP: Wait for child
    INFO: Read child's test result
    PREP: Open communication pipe for child
    PREP: Execute a program compiled in XBS5_ILP32_OFF32(32-bit off_t)
    environment that:
    opens a regular file
    execs program compiled in XBS5_ILP64_OFF64(64-bit off_t) environment,
    passing it the open file descriptor
    TEST: ftruncate returns -1 and sets errno to
    EFBIG when length exceeds the offset maximum
    PREP: Fork a child
    PREP: Connect child's pipe to stdout
    PREP: Wait for child
    INFO: Read child's test result
    ERROR: In LFS program: ftruncate did not fail as expected. Expected: -1

    Review Recommendation No Resolution Given
    Review Response
    We recommend this request be refused.

    VSU5.0.3 provides a workaround for these failures. We recommend
    that the implementation be required to apply this patch prior to
    making a single branding run.

    Review Conclusion
    This request is refused. VSU5.0.3 should be used for the effected
    tests or for the whole test run.
