A guy posted some test results based on some code like this...
#include <stdio.h>
#include <assert.h>
#define TEST_SZ 25000000
#define RD_BUFF_SZ 5000
int main(int argc, const char **argv, const char **env)
{
FILE* fp;
if(argc > 1) fp = fopen(argv[1], "r+");
else fp =tmpfile();
if(NULL != fp) {
int j = -1;
int o;
while(1) {
if(++j != TEST_SZ) {
if (j == (TEST_SZ - RD_BUFF_SZ) ) o = ftello(fp);
fwrite(&j, sizeof(int), 1, fp);
} else {
int i, buffer[RD_BUFF_SZ];
fflush(fp);
fseek(fp, o, SEEK_SET);
fread(buffer, sizeof(int), sizeof(buffer), fp);
printf("Validating end of file writes\n");
for(i = (RD_BUFF_SZ - 1); i >= 0; i--) {
assert(buffer[i] == --j) ;
}
rewind(fp);
j = -1;
}
}
return 1;
}
return 0;
}
That's not it exactly. o wasn't an int. Probably a long long by some other
name. I don't know what he's trying to do with the above, but I believe
the following has the same basic action...
#include <stdio.h>
#include <assert.h>
int main () {
int i, j, buffer[5000], isize, bufsize;
isize = sizeof(int);
bufsize = sizeof(buffer);
FILE * stream = tmpfile();
top: j = -1;
fflush(stream);
fseek(stream, 0, SEEK_SET);
fread(buffer, isize, bufsize, stream);
printf("x ");
for(i = 4999; i >=0 ; i --) { assert(buffer[i] == --j) ; }
rewind(stream);
goto top ;
}
which should be a bit easier to assess if I'm right about what it's doing.
There's probably still some stuff there that can go away, but I'm not
familiar with rewind() and friends.
