To: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Message-id: <41F40C43@webmail> MIME-version: 1.0 X-Mailer: WebMail (Hydra) SMTP v3.61 Content-type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-transfer-encoding: 7bit X-WebMail-UserID: ych43 X-EXP32-SerialNo: 00002797 Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Hey, Does anybody know how to find the specific information included in the file descriptor in Linux. When a file is created, the file manager creates a file descriptor, in which it stores detailed information about the file. But I do not know where I can find this detailed information? Does command ls -l display all the information included in the file descriptor. Does anybody can help me? Thanks in advance
