I/O Errors
Question Text
Which of the following types of errors are unlikely to occur during an I/O operation?
Question Answers
The current user does not have sufficient permisions to access a given file
There is not enough space left on the disk
- The file offset has reached the end of the file when reading
- Some data blocks in the filesystem are corrupted
Feedback
We can always reposition the file offset within a given file with either a fseek()
library call or an lseek()
syscall, so this is not an error.
The others are more difficult to manage, so can be regarded as errors.
