I do not know the exact semantics of the AFS filesystem, and therefore I
do not know that it is a bug. Is it really a bug?
Running the following program on machine A
fd = open("xxx",O_RDONLY);
while (1) {
ret = fstat(fd,&buf);
printf("size: %d mtime: %s",(int)buf.st_size,ctime(&(buf.st_mtime)));
sleep(1);
}
and modifying "xxx" on machine B (e.g. echo "J" >>xxx) reports me the
up-to-date information on machine A.
But, when I open the file with
fd = open("xxx",O_RDWR);
the stat-information is never updated.
This is on i386_linux26 with 1.4.12, but I have seen this behavior forever.
Best regards,
HW
