Krentel >Release: 3.3 >Organization: none >Environment: 3.3-STABLE FreeBSD 3.3-STABLE #0: Sun Nov 7 19:22:39 EST 1999 >Description: The stat-1.3 port (sysutils) doesn't recognize type FIFO. Instead, it reports Filetype: "Unknown" and Mode: "?". In Mark's Humble Opinion, I prefer "FIFO" to "Named Pipe". P.S. If someone commits this patch, please also take a look at PR ports/12761 and PR ports/13823 (other minor problems with stat). >How-To-Repeat: % mkfifo myfifo % /usr/local/bin/stat myfifo File: "myfifo" Size: 0 Allocated Blocks: 0 Filetype: Unknown Mode: (0755/?rwxr-xr-x) Uid: (1000/krentel) Gid: (1000/krentel) Device: 263173 Inode: 316429 Links: 1 Access: Wed Nov 17 15:18:22 1999 Modify: Wed Nov 17 15:18:22 1999 Change: Wed Nov 17 15:18:22 1999 % >Fix: --- stat.fmt.c.orig Sun Feb 16 08:12:33 1997 +++ stat.fmt.c Wed Nov 17 14:57:30 1999 @@ -279,6 +279,8 @@ break; case S_IFSOCK: buf[5 + 0] = 's'; break; + case S_IFIFO: buf[5 + 0] = 'p'; + break; default : buf[5 + 0] = '?'; } } @@ -328,6 +330,10 @@ case S_IFSOCK: strcpy(buf, "Socket"); + break; + + case S_IFIFO: + strcpy(buf, "FIFO"); break; default: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
