Determine # of open files via fdesc

I do not know whether it is a good idea to determine the number of open files of a process by enabling fdesc in the kernel. Anyway, I do the following: # mount_fdesc -o union fdesc /dev # ls -al /dev/fd > list > cat list total 1 crw--- 1 root tty 12, 0 Oct 15 17:09 0 -rw-r--r-- 1 ro
