Linux Devices – Tip1 – /dev/full
This is a humble series on linux devices.
Writing to /dev/full fails and produces “a disk full” error sending errno to ENOSPC… ENOSPC is the error that signals that the device is full.
Would you wonder what’s the use of /dev/full – well pretty obvious, just to test how program behaves if they run out of a space where they can’t write.
Cheers,
