This can happen when we are exec'd with + an already open file (stdout for example) or from the SVR4 /proc + calls that return open file descriptors for mapped address spaces. + All we have to do is open the file by name and check the two file + descriptors for a match, which is done by comparing major&minor + device numbers and inode numbers. + +BUGS + + (FIXME: does this work for networks?) + It works for NFS, which assigns a device number to each mount. + +*/ + +#include "ansidecl.h" +#include "libiberty.h" +#include <sys/types.h> +#include <sys/stat.h> + +int fdmatch (fd1, fd2) + int fd1; + int fd2; +{ + struct stat sbuf1; + struct stat sbuf2; + + if ((fstat (fd1, &sbuf1) == 0) && + (fstat (fd2, &sbuf2) == 0) && + (sbuf1.st_dev == sbuf2.st_dev) && + (sbuf1.st_ino == sbuf2.st_ino)) + { + return (1); + } + else + { + return (0); + } +} |
