Hi all When I try to do an ls * with a directory with 5793 file in it We seem to get a error message saying 6 [main] -bash 644 cmalloc: cmalloc returned NULL Segmentation fault
In Tru64 ( the OS that I am most familiar with ) also gets a similar message arg list too long in 4.0x. After talking with one of the OS development team on another mailing list says that there is a limit that is imposed by the posix standard But in 5.1.x there is a kernel parameter called exec_disable_arg_limit in the proc section that enables a process to accept an unlimited number of args. Does Caging have a similar feature where by the maximum number of args that can be passed to a process can be changed.
