Re: printf()

2000-11-10 Thread Zhenhai Duan 

Thanks for all of your replies. The reason I asked this question is that I
really saw some incomplete print out on FreeBSD 3.3. My intuition is that
the printout is buffered some where, otherwise, I would expect either
there is a complete printout, or no printout at all.

 No.

printf()

2000-11-09 Thread Zhenhai Duan 

A simple question:

Does the kernel function printf() flushes the output immediately, or it is
possible some data is buffered somewhere and gets lost without printing
to the console? like the corresponding funtion in the c library.

Thanks.
