different from what has been offered in libc_r (the one spotted in the original PR which is found in libthr has already been removed by David's commit, which is rev. 1.44 of lib/libthr/thread/thr_private.h): - Use POSIX standard prototype for ttyname_r, which is, int ttyname_r(int, char *, size_t); Instead of: char *ttyname_r(int, char *, size_t); This is to conform IEEE Std 1003.1, 2004 Edition [1]. - Since we need to use standard errno for return code, include errno.h in ttyname.c - Update ttyname(3) implementation according to reflect the API change. - Document new ttyname_r(3) behavior - Since we already make use of a thread local storage for ttyname(3), remove the BUGS section. - Remove conflicting ttyname_r related declarations found in libc_r. Hopefully this change should not have changed the API/ABI, as the ttyname_r symbol was never introduced before the last unistd.h change which happens a couple of days before.

|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn ttyname_r "int fd" "char *buf" "size_t len"

.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
These functions operate on the system file descriptors for terminal
|
|
type devices.
|
|
These descriptors are not related to the standard
|
|
.Tn I/O
|
|
.Dv FILE
|
|
typedef, but refer to the special device files found in
|
|
.Pa /dev
|
|
and named
|
|
.Pa /dev/tty Ns Ar xx
|
|
and for which an entry exists
|
|
in the initialization file
|
|
.Pa /etc/ttys .
|
|
(See
|
|
.Xr ttys 5 . )
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn isatty
|
|
function
|
|
determines if the file descriptor
|
|
.Fa fd
|
|
refers to a valid
|
|
terminal type device.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn ttyname
|
|
function
|
|
gets the related device name of
|
|
a file descriptor for which
|
|
.Fn isatty
|
|
is true.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn ttyname
|
|
returns the name stored in a static buffer which will be overwritten
|
|
on subsequent calls.
|
|
.Fn ttyname_r
|
|
takes a buffer and length as arguments to avoid this problem.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn ttyslot
|
|
function
|
|
fetches the current process' control terminal number from the
|
|
.Xr ttys 5
|
|
file entry.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn ttyname
|
|
function
|
|
returns the null terminated name if the device is found and
|
|
.Fn isatty
|
|
is true; otherwise
|
|
a
|
|
.Dv NULL
|
|
pointer is returned.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn ttyname_r
|
|
function returns 0 if successful. Otherwise an error number is returned.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn ttyslot
|
|
function
|
|
returns the unit number of the device file if found; otherwise
|
|
the value zero is returned.
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
.Fn ttyname_r
|
|
may return the following error codes:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er
|
|
.It Bq Er ENOTTY
|
|
.Fa fd
|
|
is not a valid file descriptor.
|
|
.It Bq Er ERANGE
|
|
.Fa bufsize
|
|
is smaller than the length of the string to be returned.
