Seems a lot sounder than: However both these filesystmes (EXT4 more importantly) are "tolerant" in terms of the accuracy of the value presented back in seekdir(). i.e, a seekdir(val) actually seeks to the entry which has the "closest" true offset. Let me know if you revisit this this one. Thanks Anders -- Anders Blomdell Email: anders.blomdell@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Department of Automatic Control Lund University Phone: +46 46 222 4625 P.O.
