Well, CVS coreutils (but not 5.3.0) added stat -f -c"%s%S", to differentiate between %s (optimum block size for fast transfers) and %S (fundamental block size, or the size of a block on disk), based on information in statvfs but not statfs. Also, your first cut at <sys/statvfs.h> left out ST_RDONLY and ST_NOSUID. When you add those #defines, you might as well populate all the other f_flag member bits with the ST_* namespace reserved to this header. >>looks like it would not be too hard to extend the existing fhandler_zero >>functionality into supporting /dev/full. Thanks for implementing that. - -- Life is short - so eat dessert first!
