- 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

|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In unistd.h
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn link "const char *name1" "const char *name2"
|
|
.In fcntl.h

|
.Ft int

|
.Fn linkat "int fd1" "const char *name1" "int fd2" "const char *name2" "int flags"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn link
|
|
function call
|
|
atomically creates the specified directory entry (hard link)
|
|
.Fa name2
|
|
with the attributes of the underlying object pointed at by
|
|
.Fa name1 .
|
|
If the link is successful: the link count of the underlying object
|
|
is incremented;
|
|
.Fa name1
|
|
and
|
|
.Fa name2
|
|
share equal access and rights
|
|
to the
|
|
underlying object.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa name1
|
|
is removed, the file
|
|
.Fa name2
|
|
is not deleted and the link count of the
|
|
underlying object is
|
|
decremented.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fa name1
|
|
must exist for the hard link to
|
|
succeed and
|
|
both
|
|
.Fa name1
|
|
and
|
|
.Fa name2
|
|
must be in the same file system.
|
|
.Fa name1
|
|
may not be a directory unless the caller is the super-user
|
|
and the file system containing it supports linking to directories.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn linkat
|
|
works the same way as
|
|
.Fn link
|
|
except if
|
|
.Fa name1
|
|
(resp.
|
|
.Fa name2 )
|
|
is relative.
|
|
In that case, it is looked up from a directory whose file
|
|
descriptor was passed as
|
|
.Fa fd1
|
|
(resp.
|
|
.Fa fd2 ) .
|
|
Search permission is required on the directories named by
|
|
.Fa fd1
|
|
and
|
|
.Fa fd2 .
|
|
.\" (These alternatives await a decision about the semantics of O_SEARCH)
|
|
.\" Search permission is required on the directories named by
|
|
.\" .Fa fd1
|
|
.\" and
|
|
.\" .Fa fd2
|
|
.\" unless they were opened with the
|
|
.\" .Dv O_SEARCH
|
|
.\" flag.
|
|
.\" - or -
|
|
.\" The directories named by
|
|
.\" .Fa fd1
|
|
.\" and
|
|
.\" .Fa fd2
|
|
.\" must have been opened with the
|
|
.\" .Dv O_SEARCH
|
|
.\" flag.
|
|
.Fa fd1
|
|
or
|
|
.Fa fd2
|
|
can be set to
|
|
.Dv AT_FDCWD
|
|
in order to specify the current directory.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
When operating on a symlink,
|
|
.Fn link
|
|
resolves the symlink and creates a hard link on the target.
|
|
.Fn linkat
|
|
will do the same if
|
|
.Dv AT_SYMLINK_FOLLOW
|
|
is set in
|
|
.Fa flags ,
|
|
but it will link on the symlink itself if the flag is clear.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
.Rv -std link linkat
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
.Fn link
|
|
and
|

.Fn linkat
|
|
will fail and no link will be created if:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er
|
|
.It Bq Er EACCES
|
|
A component of either path prefix denies search permission, or
|
|
the requested link requires writing in a directory with a mode
|
|
that denies write permission.
|
|
.It Bq Er EDQUOT
|
|
The directory in which the entry for the new link
|
|
is being placed cannot be extended because the
|
|
user's quota of disk blocks on the file system
|
|
containing the directory has been exhausted.
|
|
.It Bq Er EEXIST
|
|
The link named by
|
|
.Fa name2
|
|
does exist.

|
|
is outside the process's allocated address space.
|
|

|
the file system to make the directory entry.
|
|
.It Bq Er ELOOP
|
|
Too many symbolic links were encountered in translating one of the pathnames.
|
|
.It Bq Er EMLINK
|
|
The link count of the file named by
|
|
.Fa name1
|
|
would exceed
|
|
.Brq Dv LINK_MAX .
|
|
.It Bq Er ENAMETOOLONG
|
|
A component of a pathname exceeded
|
|
.Brq Dv NAME_MAX
|
|
characters, or an entire path name exceeded
|
|
.Brq Dv PATH_MAX
|
|
characters.
|
|
.It Bq Er ENOENT
|
|
A component of either path prefix does not exist, or the file named
|
|
by
|
|
.Fa name1
|
|
does not exist.
|
|
.It Bq Er ENOSPC
|
|
The directory in which the entry for the new link is being placed
|
|
cannot be extended because there is no space left on the file
|
|
system containing the directory.
|
|
.It Bq Er ENOTDIR
|
|
A component of either path prefix is not a directory.
|
|
.It Bq Er EOPNOTSUPP
|
|
The file system containing the file named by
|
|
.Fa name1
|
|
does not support links.
|
|
.It Bq Er EPERM
|
|
The file named by
|
|
.Fa name1
|
|
is a directory and the effective
|
|
user ID is not super-user,
|
|
or the file system containing the file does not permit the use of
|
|
.Fn link
|
|
on a directory.
|
|
.It Bq Er EROFS
|
|
The requested link requires writing in a directory on a read-only file
|
|
system.
|
|
.It Bq Er EXDEV
|
|
The link named by
|
|
.Fa name2
|
|
and the file named by
|
|
.Fa name1
|
|
are on different file systems.
|
|

|
|
.Pp
|
|
In addition,
|
|
.Fn linkat
|

or
|
|
.Fa fd2 ,

respectively, is neither
|
|
.Dv AT_FDCWD

.It Bq Er ENOTDIR
|
|
.Fa name1
