filetest

OS/161 Reference Manual

Name

filetest - basic filesystem test

Synopsis

/testbin/filetest filename

Description

filetest tests the filesystem by opening, writing to, and reading from a user-specified file.

Requirements

filetest uses the following system calls:

• open
• read
• close
• remove
• write
• _exit

filetest should run correctly on SFS filesystems with the OS/161 system as shipped. It should continue to work once the file system assignment is complete.

It will not work in full on emufs, because emufs does not support remove().
