hmnn.
fcntl(fd1, F_CAT, fd2);
Looks good to me and just for good measure lets have:
typedef struct fsplit_s {
int fs_nfd;
off_t fs_off;
} fsplit_t;
fcntl(fd1, F_SPLIT, &split_info);
:-) Okay I'm being silly but Casper's point is well taken fcntl(2)
seems to be the perfect place to extend for this type of work.
