Greetings all.
The V7 ls(1) man page says that the -s option, which prints total
blocks, includes any indirect blocks.
However, the V7 struct stat didn't have the st_blocks member in the
struct stat, and the code in ls.c uses
long
nblock(size)
long size;
{
return((size+511)>>9);
}
So, is this just a case of the man page being mistaken?
When did the struct stat acquire the st_blocks member?
While I'm at it, the V7 ls -a option only adds . and .. to the
list; apparently all other dot files were printed by default.
When did ls change such that -a applied to all dot files?
Thanks,
