Subject: Re: [RFC] O(1) proc_pid_readdir
Date: Sun, 16 Mar 2003 22:45:26 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3E74F076.2010006@colorfullife.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20030316213516.GM20188@holomorphy.com>

One open problem with my patch is that the f_pos values that are 
generated by my patch are not monotonic anymore:

f_pos    name
257    self
304    47
262    5
309    52
301    44
etc.

telldir() and seekdir() work correctly, unless anyone assumes that the 
return values are monotonically increasing.
