+NAME
+
+ fdmatch -- see if two file descriptors refer to same file
+
+SYNOPSIS
+
+ int fdmatch (int fd1, int fd2)
+
+DESCRIPTION
+
+ Check to see if two open file descriptors refer to the same file.
+ This is useful, for example, when we have an open file descriptor
+ for an unnamed file, and the name of a file that we believe to
+ correspond to that fd. This can happen when we are exec'd with
+ an already open file (stdout for example) or from the SVR4 /proc
+ calls that return open file descriptors for mapped address spaces.
+ All we have to do is open the file by name and check the two file
+ descriptors for a match, which is done by comparing major&minor
+ device numbers and inode numbers.
+
+BUGS
+
+ (FIXME: does this work for networks?)
+ It works for NFS, which assigns a device number to each mount.
