    Test Output
    TEST PURPOSE #3
    A call to int lstat(const char *path, struct stat
    *buf) when path references a block special file shall
    set the st_mode member of the stat structure pointed
    to by buf to S_IFBLK.
    PREP: Obtain a block-special file
    TEST: lstat() sets the st_mode member to S_IFBLK
    ERROR: lstat failed, errno = 129(ENOENT - No such file or directory)
    3 FAIL

    ID of the object into the st_rdev member of the stat
    structure pointed to by buf.
    PREP: Obtain a block-special file

    Review Response
    A permanent interpretation is recommended.

    This will confirm that an implementation is not required to implement
    the block special file type, without requiring the coverage of the
    test suite to be reduced when applied to implementations which do
    provide this type.
