.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In unistd.h
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn unlink "const char *path"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn unlink
|
|
function
|
|
removes the link named by
|
|
.Fa path
|
|
from its directory and decrements the link count of the
|
|
file which was referenced by the link.
|
|
If that decrement reduces the link count of the file
|
|
to zero,
|
|
and no process has the file open, then
|
|
all resources associated with the file are reclaimed.
|
|
If one or more process have the file open when the last link is removed,
|
|
the link is removed, but the removal of the file is delayed until
|
|
all references to it have been closed.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
Upon successful completion, a value of 0 is returned.
|
|
Otherwise, a value of \-1 is returned and
|
|
.Va errno
|
|
is set to indicate the error.
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn unlink
|
|
succeeds unless:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er
|
|
.It Bq Er EACCES
|
|
Search permission is denied for a component of the path prefix, or
|
|
write permission is denied on the directory containing the link
|
|
to be removed.
|
|
.It Bq Er EBUSY
|
|
The entry to be unlinked is the mount point for a
|
|
mounted file system.
|
|
.It Bq Er EFAULT
|
|
.Fa path
|
|
points outside the process's allocated address space.
|
|
.It Bq Er EIO
|
|
An I/O error occurred while deleting the directory entry
|
|
or deallocating the inode.
|
|
.It Bq Er ELOOP
|
|
Too many symbolic links were encountered in translating the pathname.
|
|
.It Bq Er ENAMETOOLONG
|
|
A component of a pathname exceeded
|
|
.Brq Dv NAME_MAX

|
characters.
|
|
.It Bq Er ENOENT
|
|
The named file does not exist.
|
|
.It Bq Er ENOTDIR
|
|
A component of the path prefix is not a directory.
|
|
.It Bq Er EPERM
|
|
The named file is a directory and the effective user ID
|
|
of the process is not the super-user, the file system
|
|
containing the file does not permit the use of
|
|
.Fn unlink
|
|
on a directory,
|
|
or the directory containing the file is marked sticky,
|
