Hello, I’m trying to identify all hard links pointing to my root directory: $ sudo ls -lid / 2 drwxr-xr-x 23 root root 4096 Aug 11 20:58 /
The inode number is 2 and count of hard links is 23. Then I run find: $ sudo find / -xdev -inum 2 2>/dev/null | wc -l 15 But the `find` finds only 15. I checked on two different systems and result of find doesn’t match the number of hardlinks. In detailed out — https://pastebin.com/raw/JH6hW7n6 — you can see that -xdev option seems to be ignored since /dev is counted. But it is still doesn’t explain why the number is 15 — less than 23. May I ask for help to find all hard links to the directory within one filesystems using `find`? --- Best Regards, Andrei Enshin
