Module LargeFile
: sigend
File operations on large files. This sub-module provides 64-bit variants of the functions
UnixLabels.LargeFile.lseek (for positioning a file descriptor), UnixLabels.LargeFile.truncate and
UnixLabels.LargeFile.ftruncate (for changing the size of a file), and UnixLabels.LargeFile.stat ,
UnixLabels.LargeFile.lstat and UnixLabels.LargeFile.fstat (for obtaining information on files). These
alternate functions represent positions and sizes by 64-bit integers (type int64 ) instead of regular
integers (type int ), thus allowing operating on files whose sizes are greater than max_int .
