SubjectVFS/ext2fs - large files on the Alpha (fails for 17GB+)
I've been playing with large files (ext2fs) on the Alpha, kernel
2.1.116.

It appears I am able to create a 16 1/16 GB file - but not 16 1/8 GB
file. Somewhere in between lies a limit or problem...

Now, it seems to me, it should be possible to create files large than
this, even several hundred GD, am I correct?

P.S. On the Intel, we are restricted to 2GB files because of mm
considerations. But, since we have a 3/1 split, why isn't the
maximum file size 3GB?
