--IJpNTDwzlM2Ie8A6 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Hi. If modifying the current directory by either removing a directory or unlinking a file (in one program), a subsequenct call to getcwd(3) in another program executing under Linux emulation will fail. This can be demonstrated by running the attached C program (compiled under Linux) after removing a directory or a file in the current directory. Unfortunately due to limited experience in the kernel area I do not have a patch to contribute. Unless the matter is brought forward in some way on this list in a couple of days time I will send-pr it to make sure it gets archived... I'm running FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE from 2001-01-04. Cheers, Markus.
