équivalent de la commande fallocate() sous OS X ?

Qu'en est-il de l'utilisation :

mkfile -n 1m test.tmp

Ce n'est pas la même commande mais sert le même objectif.

Notez que fallocate utilise des multiplicateurs décimaux, alors que mkfile utilise des multiplicateurs binaires.

homme mkfile

Pour ceux qui souhaitent créer de faux fichiers de données pour les tests, mkfile est assez élégant. Une alternative consiste à utiliser dd :

dd if=/dev/zero of=zfile count=1024 bs=1024

Comme vous pouvez le voir avec od -b zfile , c'est plein de zéros. Si vous voulez des données aléatoires (ce que vous voudrez peut-être pour tester des flux de travail avec compression de données, par exemple), utilisez "/dev/random" à la place de "/dev/zero":

dd if=/dev/random of=randfile count=1024 bs=1024

fallocate() n'existe pas sur OSX. Vous pouvez cependant "faire semblant" ; Mozilla le simule dans sa classe FileUtils. Voir ce fichier :
