Hello, all, I have a user program as below: FILE *fd; while (1) { fd= fopen( "tmp", "r" ); if ( fd == NULL ) break; }
from my understanding, since i open the same file to read, my process should create a new file descriptor each time when fopen is called. Therefore, inside the kernel, fdalloc() should be called, NOT falloc() (since falloc() allocates a new FILE * struct in addition to a new file descriptor), BUT based on what i observed (i instrumented falloc() function), it seems that falloc() is called each time when fopen() is called. I am wondering where i missed? Any hints is appreciated! Best, yan _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
