The following patch improves handling of largefile support with procfs on 32-bit Solaris. It has already been approved and installed for binutils-gdb in the thread starting at [PATCH] Unify Solaris procfs and largefile handling https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2020-June/169977.html I'm syncing the config/largefile.m4 part to gcc now which is the master for config. Since ACX_LARGEFILE isn't used anywhere in the gcc tree, I'm installing it as obvious. [Or rather: I meant to and failed: remote: *** ChangeLog format failed: remote: ERR: first line should start with a tab, an asterisk and a space:" Sync from binutils-gdb." remote: ERR: additional author must be indented with one tab and four spaces:" 2020-07-30 Rainer Orth <ro@CeBiTec.Uni-Bielefeld.DE>" remote: ERR: first line should start with a tab, an asterisk and a space:" 2020-07-30 Rainer Orth <ro@CeBiTec.Uni-Bielefeld.DE>" remote: remote: Please see: https://gcc.gnu.org/codingconventions.html#ChangeLogs remote: abort: git remote error: refs/heads/master failed to update How am I supposed to install a ChangeLog entry like the one below?
