Hi,
how am I supposed to clear the kmsg buffer since it's not a terminal??
fd = open("/proc/kmsg", O_RDONLY | O_NONBLOCK); while(read(fd, buf, sizeof(buf)) > 0); if(errno == EAGAIN) { printf("Clear!\n"); }
This is language (spoken-wise) neutral :p
Gawd, you are a hacker. I already have to suck on pipes because I can't seek them. Now, I can't even seek a file-system???!!
I'm not sure that seek makes any sense on that, since it is more like a pipe than a normal file..
