Subject: Redundant syscalls?
Date: Fri, 15 Feb 2002 17:24:02 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <02021517152700.01701@odyssey> (raw)
I was wondering why do we need fsetxattr(2), fgetxattr(2) etc when we
already have setxattr(2), getxattr(2) etc working on file names
instead of file descriptors.
truncate(2)/ftruncate(2) is another more traditional example.
Thanks
