25Check to see if two open file descriptors refer to the same file.
26This is useful, for example, when we have an open file descriptor for
27an unnamed file, and the name of a file that we believe to correspond
28to that fd. This can happen when we are exec'd with an already open
29file (@code{stdout} for example) or from the SVR4 @file{/proc} calls
30that return open file descriptors for mapped address spaces. All we
31have to do is open the file by name and check the two file descriptors
32for a match, which is done by comparing major and minor device numbers
33and inode numbers.

40 It works for NFS, which assigns a device number to each mount.
