There's no way for xargs to know about anything other than the kernel-imposed argument list size limit. Where can I read the argument list size limit? I fail to see anything relevant with ulimit -a or in proc or in pam's limits.conf.
% egrep ARG_MAX /usr/include/linux/limits.h #define ARG_MAX 131072 /* # bytes of args + environ for exec() */
And I believe there's also a maximum size to the number of pointers in the array char *argv[]. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
