The following reply was made to PR misc/152485; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Alexander Best <arundel@freebsd.org> To: bug-followup@freebsd.org Cc: Subject: Re: misc/152485: /dev/null seek offset is not reported correctly Date: Wed, 15 Dec 2010 16:17:41 +0000 the null(4) manual page states that the length of the null device is always zero, so there's no need to seek into the file really. however you might want to post a mail to freebsd-hackers@, if you think this should be changed. maybe some developers share your point of view. cheers. alex -- a13x
