- Fix for possible unset uid/gid in toproto
- Fix for default mtree style
- Update libelf
- Importing libexecinfo
- Resynchronize GCC, mpc, gmp, mpfr
- build.sh: Replace params with show-params.
This has been done as the make target has been renamed in the same
way, while a new target named params has been added. This new
target generates a file containing all the parameters, instead of
printing it on the console.
- Update test48 with new etc/services (Fix by Ben Gras <ben@minix3.org)
get getservbyport() out of the inner loop

.Dt REALPATH 3
|
|
.Os
|
|
.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm realpath
|
|
.Nd returns the canonicalized absolute pathname
|
|
.Sh LIBRARY
|
|
.Lb libc
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In sys/param.h
|
|
.In stdlib.h
|
|
.Ft "char *"
|
|
.Fn realpath "const char * restrict pathname" "char * restrict resolvedname"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn realpath
|
|
function resolves all symbolic links, extra
|
|
.Dq /
|
|
characters and references to
|
|
.Pa /./
|
|
and
|
|
.Pa /../
|
|
in
|
|
.Fa pathname ,
|
|
and copies the resulting absolute pathname into
|
|
the memory referenced by
|
|
.Fa resolvedname .
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa resolvedname
|
|
argument
|
|
.Em must
|
|
refer to a buffer capable of storing at least
|
|
.Dv MAXPATHLEN
|
|
characters, or be
|
|
.Dv NULL .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn realpath
|
|
function will resolve both absolute and relative paths
|
|
and return the absolute pathname corresponding to
|
|
.Fa pathname .
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa resolvedname
|
|
is
|
|
.Dv NULL ,
|
|
it will be allocated and the returned pointer can be deallocated using
|
|
.Xr free 3 .
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn realpath
|
|
function returns
|
|
.Fa resolvedname
|
|
on success.
|
|
If an error occurs,
|
|
.Fn realpath
|
|
returns
|
|
.Dv NULL ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Fa resolvedname
|
|
was not allocated by
|
|
.Fn realpath ,
|
|
it will contain the pathname which caused the problem.
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
The function
|
|
.Fn realpath
|
|
may fail and set the external variable
|
|
.Va errno
|
|
for any of the errors specified for the library functions
|
|
.\" First sorted by section, then by name.
|
|
.Xr lstat 2 ,
|
|
.Xr readlink 2 ,
|
|
.Xr getcwd 3
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr malloc 3 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
In addition, the following errors may be reported:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er
|
|
.It Bq Er EINVAL
|
|
The value of the
|
|
.Fa pathname
|
|
argument is
|
|
.Dv NULL .
|
|
.It Bq Er ELOOP
|
|
Too many symbolic links were encountered in translating the
|
|
.Fa pathname .
|
|
.It Bq Er ENAMETOOLONG
|
|
The resulting absolute pathname exceeds
|
|
.Dv MAXPATHLEN
|
|
characters.
|
|
.It Bq Er ENOENT
|
|
The value of the
|
|
.Fa pathname
|
|
argument is an empty string;
|
|
or a symbolic link to an empty string is encountered.
|
|
.It Bq Er ENOTDIR
|
|
A component of the path prefix is not a directory.

.Sh STANDARDS
|
|
.Fn realpath
|
|
first appeared in
|
|
.St -xpg4.2
|
|
and is part of
|
|
.St -p1003.1-2001 .
|
|
.Sh HISTORY
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn realpath
|
|
function call first appeared in
|
|
.Bx 4.4 .
|
|
In
|
|
.Nx 7.0
|
|
the function was updated to accept a
|
|
.Dv NULL
|
|
pointer for the
|
|
.Fa resolvedname
|
|
argument.
|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
This implementation of
|
|
.Fn realpath
|
|
differs slightly from the Solaris implementation.
|
|
The
|
|
.Bx 4.4
|
|
version always returns absolute pathnames,
|
|
whereas the Solaris implementation will,
|
|
under certain circumstances, return a relative
|
|
.Fa resolvedname
|
|
when given a relative
|
|
.Fa pathname .
