- libbuffy-bindings), the failing test happens because it logs to /dev/null
- as test file,
- <pinotree> and while doing that, it wants to lock it first, having a
- ENOTSUP in return
- <youpi> oh
- <youpi> locking null, how interesting
- <youpi> what is that supposed to do ? :o)
- <pinotree> from what i was reading posix, it would seem that such object is
- considered a "File"
- <youpi> is it our unimplemented record lock, or just the lock operation
- that /dev/null doesn't support ?
- <youpi> what size is null supposed to be? zero, right?
- <pinotree> the latter
- <youpi> ah
- <youpi> so we can simply make lock return 0
- <youpi> since there's no byte to lock?
- <youpi> I don't remember whether you can lock unexistant bytes
- <pinotree> indeed, if i change the libwibble unit test to use eg /tmp/foo,
- they pas
