| Summary | 0000426: The description of the block size used by ls -s when -k is not also given is inconsistent. | ||||
| Description | The description of the output produced by -s in the STDOUT section says that when -k is not given, the block size is 512. (See P2869, L93937.) The RATIONALE on P2871, L94046-94051 changed the block size from implementation-defined when -k is not specified to 512 when -k was added to the standard. The description of the -s option in the OPTIONS section says that when -k is not given, the block size is implementation-defined. (See P2865, L93802.) This needs to be changed to agree with the two places above. | ||||
| Desired Action |
Change:
block size is implementation-defined.
on P2865, L93802 to:
block size shall be 512 bytes.
