Trent Nelson added the comment: Hmmmmm... tested against other types of file systems and didn't see any issues. Tested manually against ZFS again:
% ~/src/cpython/python /tmp/test_readlink.py temp dir: /mnt/t-zfs/trent/d_6i51 path 1: /mnt/t-zfs/trent/d_6i51/qux, length 1: 27, buf 1: /mnt/t-zfs/trent/d_6i51/bar path 2: /mnt/t-zfs/trent/d_6i51/qux, length 2: 27, buf 2: /mnt/t-zfs/trent/d_6i51/bar dst: /mnt/t-zfs/trent/d_6i51/bar path 1: /mnt/t-zfs/trent/d_6i51/baz, length 1: 24, buf 1: /mnt/t-zfs/trent/d_6i51/ path 2: /mnt/t-zfs/trent/d_6i51/baz, length 2: 24, buf 2: /mnt/t-zfs/trent/d_6i51/ src: /mnt/t-zfs/trent/d_6i51/ [47136 refs] This time, src got truncated by 3 characters back down to 24. (Instead of getting rounded up by 6 from 18->24 in the previous example.) Next step: replicate with a C snippet and ping the FreeBSD developers, I guess. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15748> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
