DESCRIPTION

Open for reading

The open_read() function opens the file whose name is pointed by file for reading in non-blocking mode, i.e. with O_NONBLOCK set.

The open_readat() function is similar to open_read() except when file is a relative path, in which case it is relative to the directory associated with the file descriptor fd, which may be AT_FDCWD to use the current working directory.

The open_readb() function is similar to open_read() but clears O_NONBLOCK after opening.

The open_readatb() function is similar to open_readb() except when file is a relative path, in which case it is relative to the directory associated with the file descriptor fd, which may be AT_FDCWD to use the current working directory.

The openb_read() function is similar to open_read() but it opens the file in blocking mode, i.e. with O_NONBLOCK clear.

The openb_readat() function is similar to openb_read() except when file is a relative path, in which case it is relative to the directory associated with the file descriptor fd, which may be AT_FDCWD to use the current working directory.

The openbc_read() function is similar to openb_read(3) but it opens the file with O_CLOEXEC set.

The openbc_readat() function is similar to openbc_read() except when file is a relative path, in which case it is relative to the directory associated with the file descriptor fd, which may be AT_FDCWD to use the current working directory.

The openc_read() function is similar to open_read() but with it opens the file with O_CLOEXEC set.

The openc_readat() function is similar to openc_read() except when file is a relative path, in which case it is relative to the directory associated with the file descriptor fd, which may be AT_FDCWD to use the current working directory.

The openc_readb() function is similar to openc_read() but clears O_NONBLOCK after opening.

The openc_readatb() function is similar to openc_readb() except when file is a relative path, in which case it is relative to the directory associated with the file descriptor fd, which may be AT_FDCWD to use the current working directory.

Open for writing

The open_write() function opens the file whose name is pointed by file for writing in non-blocking mode, i.e. with O_NONBLOCK set.

The open_writeat() function is similar to open_write() except when file is a relative path, in which case it is relative to the directory associated with the file descriptor fd, which may be AT_FDCWD to use the current working directory.

The open_writeb() function is similar to open_write() but clears O_NONBLOCK after opening.

The open_writeatb() function is similar to open_writeb() except when file is a relative path, in which case it is relative to the directory associated with the file descriptor fd, which may be AT_FDCWD to use the current working directory.

The openb_write() function is similar to open_write() but it opens the file in blocking mode, i.e. with O_NONBLOCK clear.

The openb_writeat() function is similar to openb_write() except when file is a relative path, in which case it is relative to the directory associated with the file descriptor fd, which may be AT_FDCWD to use the current working directory.

The openbc_write() function is similar to openb_write() but with O_CLOEXEC set.

The openbc_writeat() function is similar to openbc_write() except when file is a relative path, in which case it is relative to the directory associated with the file descriptor fd, which may be AT_FDCWD to use the current working directory.

The openc_write() function is similar to open_write() but with O_CLOEXEC set.

The openc_writeat() function is similar to openc_write() except when file is a relative path, in which case it is relative to the directory associated with the file descriptor fd, which may be AT_FDCWD to use the current working directory.

The openc_writeb() function is similar to openc_write() but clears O_NONBLOCK after opening.

The openc_writeatb() function is similar to openc_writeb() except when file is a relative path, in which case it is relative to the directory associated with the file descriptor fd, which may be AT_FDCWD to use the current working directory.

Creating file if needed

The open_create() function is similar to open_write() but it creates the file if it doesn't exist.

The open_createat() function is similar to open_create() except when file is a relative path, in which case it is relative to the directory associated with the file descriptor fd, which may be AT_FDCWD to use the current working directory.

The openc_create() function is similar to open_create() but with O_CLOEXEC set.

The openc_createat() function is similar to openc_create() except when file is a relative path, in which case it is relative to the directory associated with the file descriptor fd, which may be AT_FDCWD to use the current working directory.

Creating file or failing

The open_excl() function is similar to open_create() but it fails if the file exists.

The open_exclat() function is similar to open_excl() except when file is a relative path, in which case it is relative to the directory associated with the file descriptor fd, which may be AT_FDCWD to use the current working directory.

The openc_excl() function is similar to open_excl() but with O_CLOEXEC set.

The openc_exclat() function is similar to openc_excl() except when file is a relative path, in which case it is relative to the directory associated with the file descriptor fd, which may be AT_FDCWD to use the current working directory.

Creating file and/or in append mode

The open_append() function is similar to open_create(3 but the file is opened in append-mode (i.e. it has O_APPEND set).

The open_appendat() function is similar to open_append() except when file is a relative path, in which case it is relative to the directory associated with the file descriptor fd, which may be AT_FDCWD to use the current working directory.

The openc_append() function is similar to open_append() but with O_CLOEXEC set.

The openc_appendat() function is similar to openc_append() except when file is a relative path, in which case it is relative to the directory associated with the file descriptor fd, which may be AT_FDCWD to use the current working directory.

Creating file or truncating

The open_trunc() function is similar to open_create() but it truncates the file if it exists.

The open_truncat() function is similar to open_trunc() except when file is a relative path, in which case it is relative to the directory associated with the file descriptor fd, which may be AT_FDCWD to use the current working directory.

The openc_trunc() function is similar to open_trunc() but with O_CLOEXEC set.

The openc_truncat() function is similar to openc_trunc() except when file is a relative path, in which case it is relative to the directory associated with the file descriptor fd, which may be AT_FDCWD to use the current working directory.

RETURN VALUE

These functions return the opened file descriptor on success. Otherwise they return -1 and set errno to indicate the error.

ERRORS

The open_*at{,b}() family of functions may fail and set errno for any of the errors described for openat(3); the other functions may fail and set errno for any of the errors described for open(3).

The open_*b() family of functions may also fail and set errno for any of the errors described for ndelay_off(3).
