https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D274189 Bug ID: 274189 Summary: [PATCH] stat(1) EXAMPLES use of st_mtimespec is incorrect since v1.10 Product: Documentation Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: Manual Pages Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: mirror176@hotmail.com CC: doc@FreeBSD.org Created attachment 245346 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=3D245346&action= =3Dedit Replace timespec with time in usr.bin/stat/stat.1 stat(1) EXAMPLES makes use of st_mtimespec which is not created by -s as the example implies so it fails. st_mtime is included in the output when running `stat -s filename` under both csh and sh but st_mtimespec is not. The following would be a fix to the manpage to be functional for examples. I also changed the last occurrence of timespec as I don't think it would make sense if that is not the actual field but it could be left if it is desired. After editing I noticed code seems labeled as coming from NetBSD; it seems = they have the change in the examples area (last edits of my patch) but not the o= ther format area (first edit). They have the tool and manpage on v1.46 instead of our v1.28 and I did not look things over further than comparing these speci= fic edits. It appears that the NetBSD manpage was fixed in v1.15 in 2005 to match the v1.10 program alteration in 2003 saying they changed it because that's what= the fields really are. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
