dump_file_descriptors

NAME

dump_file_descriptors() - dump the MudOS process file descriptor table

SYNOPSIS

void dump_file_descriptors( void );

DESCRIPTION

This  function  is provided to assist in debugging the MudOS driver and
helps overcome deficiencies in some UN*X implementations which  do  not
provide  equivalent  or  superior  debugging  facilities as part of the
operating system itself.  The interpretation of the output is very sys‐
tem-dependent.  Each file descriptor is checked to determine whether it
refers to an open file.  If so, information is displayed from the "stat
structure" returned by the fstat() system call.

The following output was produced on Lambda Realms running on a Sequent
DYNIX/ptx system:
