I dont think this is a bug. It has probably got something to do with the difference in inode number size. Anyway, we can confirm this by the following steps:
1. In source, along with the line:
printf("Stat failed\n");
..please print strerror(errno). i.e change the above line to:
printf("Stat failed: %s\n", strerror(errno));
I need to see what error number the fstat syscall fails with.
3. please recompile as:
gcc -m32 1.c
and re-run the test.
2. Once the test finishes. Please send me the output of the program above and the output of:
$ dmesg |tail
$ uname -a
With this info, I can figure out whats going on. Thanks.
