+ Make `ls' a lot more efficient on systems (e.g., linux-2.4.*)
+ that save file type information in directory entries.
+ * src/ls.c [enum filetype] (unknown):
+ Add members (as yet unused):
+ (HAVE_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE): Define.
+ (format_needs_type): New global.
+ (main): Set it.
+ (print_dir): Set `type' from directory entry, if possible.
+ (gobble_file): Add a parameter, TYPE.
+ Stat the file only if its type is unknown and we need the type.
+ Patch from Ulrich Drepper.
+
Shred can now determine the size of a block devices (e.g. /dev/fd0)
by writing until a write operation fails.
* src/shred.c: Include assert.h.
