Hello,
recently while debugging a problem in wwwoffle-2.5b I realized,
that stat(2) behaves at least extremely strange on 3.3-STABLE:
This small example...
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
char *fname =3D argv[0];
struct stat sb;
int res =3D stat(argv[0], &sb);
printf("filename : %s\n" \
"st_size : %d\n" \
"st_blocks : %d\n" \
"st_blksize : %d\n",
fname, sb.st_size, sb.st_blocks, sb.st_blksize);
return res;
}
would emerge this when run:
filename : ./a.out
st_size : 3342
st_blocks : 0
st_blksize : 8
Any idea why st_blocks is always zero? This can't be correct.
st_blksize seems to be the number of blocks allocated for
filename, although assuming a blocksize of 512 the object
would fit into 7 blocks. Maybe that's the result of the
underlying FFS's fsize (1024).
