Hi; >From http://blogs.sun.com/bonwick/date/200512
"At this writing, SEEK_HOLE and SEEK_DATA are Solaris-specific. I encourage (implore? beg?) other operating systems to adopt these lseek(2) extensions verbatim (100% tax-free) so that sparse file navigation becomes a ubiquitous feature that every backup and archiving program can rely on. It's long overdue." It should be mentioned that linux adopted them and they would help the ZFS port. cheers, Pedro __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
