Bug Description

I try to autobuild for ARM7 with qemu-arm-static. Part of this is downloading source via SVN.

Whenever I try to download a SVN repository I get the following output:

    svn: E000075: Can't read directory '...': Value too large for defined data type

This is the repository I'm trying to check out:
https://svn.baycom.de/repos/vdr-mcli-plugin/

qemu-arm-static version is 4.2.0

I've also tried older versions without change.

Platform I try to emulate is armv7h (Arch Linux ARM for Raspberry Pi 2)

Host system is AMD64

This can be reproduced 100% of the time. Here I have the issue happening on Travis CI:

Hi; thanks for the bug report. This is a duplicate of LP:1805913. It requires a host kernel change to fix this bug (which is being discussed but hasn't been written yet). Otherwise the only known workarounds are:
 * downgrade the guest (arm) glibc to 2.27 or earlier
 * use a filesystem on the host which is not ext3/ext4 (often not practical)
