- 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 stdio.h
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn rename "const char *from" "const char *to"
|
|
.In unistd.h
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn renameat "int fromfd" "const char *from" "int tofd" "const char *to"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Fn rename
|
|
causes the link named
|
|
.Fa from
|
|
to be renamed as
|
|
.Fa to .
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa to
|
|
exists, it is first removed.
|
|
Both
|
|
.Fa from
|
|
and
|
|
.Fa to
|
|
must be of the same type (that is, both directories or both
|
|
non-directories), and must reside on the same file system.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn rename
|
|
guarantees that an instance of
|
|
.Fa to
|
|
will always exist, even if the system should crash in
|
|
the middle of the operation.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If the final component of
|
|
.Fa from
|
|
is a symbolic link,
|
|
the symbolic link is renamed,
|
|
not the file or directory to which it points.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If both
|
|
.Fa from
|
|
and
|
|
.Fa to
|
|
are pathnames of the same existing file in the file system's name space,
|
|
.Fn rename
|
|
returns successfully and performs no other action.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn renameat
|
|
works the same way as
|
|
.Fn rename
|
|
except if
|
|
.Fa from
|
|
(resp.
|
|
.Fa to )
|
|
is relative.
|
|
In that case, it is looked up from a directory whose file
|
|
descriptor was passed as
|
|
.Fa fromfd
|
|
(resp.
|
|
.Fa tofd ) .
|
|
Search permission is required on the directories named by
|
|
.Fa fromfd
|
|
and
|
|
.Fa tofd .
|
|
.\" (These alternatives await a decision about the semantics of O_SEARCH)
|
|
.\" Search permission is required on the directories named by
|
|
.\" .Fa fromfd
|
|
.\" and
|
|
.\" .Fa tofd
|
|
.\" unless they were opened with the
|
|
.\" .Dv O_SEARCH
|
|
.\" flag.
|

|
|
.\" The directories named by

.\" .Dv O_SEARCH
|
|
.\" flag.
|
|
.Fa fromfd
|
|
or
|
|
.Fa tofd
|
|
can be set to
|
|
.Dv AT_FDCWD
|
|
in order to specify the current directory.

.Sh ERRORS
|
|
.Fn rename
|
|
and

will fail and neither of the argument files will be
|
|
affected if:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er
|

A component of the
|
|
.Fa from
|
|
path does not exist,
|
|
or a path prefix of
|
|
.Fa to
|
|
does not exist.
|
|
.It Bq Er ENOSPC
|
|
The directory in which the entry for the new name is being placed
|

cannot be extended because there is no space left on the file
|
|
system containing the directory.
|
|
.It Bq Er ENOTDIR
|

|
|

|
.Fa from
|
|
are owned by the effective user ID.
|
|
Or the

|
|
file exists,
|
|
the directory containing
|
|
.Fa to
|
|
is marked sticky,

|
|
and the file named by
|
|
.Fa from

are on different logical devices (file systems).
|
|
Note that this error code will not be returned if the implementation
|
|
permits cross-device links.

.Sh STANDARDS
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn rename
|
|
function deviates from the semantics defined in
|
|
.St -p1003.1-90 ,
|
|
which specifies that if both
|
|
.Fa from
|
|
and
|
|
.Fa to
|
|
.Em link
|
|
to the same existing file,
|
|
.Fn rename
|
|
shall return successfully and performs no further action, whereas this
|
|
implementation will remove the file specified by
|
|
.Fa from
|
|
unless both
|
|
.Fa from
|
|
and
|
|
.Fa to
|
|
are pathnames of the same file in the file system's name space.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
To retain conformance, a compatibility interface is provided by the
|
|
.Lb libposix
|
|
which is also be brought into scope if any of the
|
|
.Dv _POSIX_SOURCE ,
|
|
.Dv _POSIX_C_SOURCE
|
|
or
|
|
.Dv _XOPEN_SOURCE
|
|
preprocessor symbols are defined at compile-time:
|
|
the
|
|
.Fn rename
|
|
function conforms to
|
|
.St -p1003.1-90
|
|
and
|
|
.St -xpg4.2 .
|
|
.Fn renameat
|
|
conforms to
|
|
.St -p1003.1-2008 .
|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
The system can deadlock if a loop in the file system graph is present.
|
|
This loop takes the form of an entry in directory
|
|
.Ql Pa a ,
|
|
say
|
|
.Ql Pa a/foo ,
|
|
being a hard link to directory
|
|
.Ql Pa b ,
|
|
and an entry in
|
|
directory
|
|
.Ql Pa b ,
|
|
say
|
|
.Ql Pa b/bar ,
|
|
being a hard link
|
|
to directory
|
|
.Ql Pa a .
|
|
When such a loop exists and two separate processes attempt to
|
|
perform
|
|
.Ql rename a/foo b/bar
|
|
and
|
|
.Ql rename b/bar a/foo ,
|
|
respectively,
|
|
the system may deadlock attempting to lock
|
|
both directories for modification.
|
|
Hard links to directories should be
|
|
replaced by symbolic links by the system administrator.
