bug#17422: dd giving different results between UNIX and LINUX

[Baggett, Don]

Hello,

I am converting some UNIX programs to Linux.

One of the programs does the following:
 dd if=20140430.1.EBC.TXT of=tmpUNIX.dat cbs=152 conv=ascii

In Solaris I get this:
461614+1 records in
368585+1 records out

In Linux I get this:
461614+1 records in
461614+1 records out
236346472 bytes (236 MB) copied, 11.4938 seconds, 20.6 MB/s

The cksum done on 20140430.1.EBC.TXT yields the same result on both Linux and 
UNIX.


uname -a
SunOS dsa0401 5.10 Generic_142900-03 sun4v sparc SUNW,SPARC-Enterprise-T5220

Linux dla0614.ccrt.us 2.6.18-371.1.2.el5 #1 SMP Tue Oct 22 11:40:34 CDT 2013 
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Don
