.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Fd #include <sys/time.h>
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn utimes "const char *path" "const struct timeval *times"
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn lutimes "const char *path" "const struct timeval *times"
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn futimes "int fd" "const struct timeval *times"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The access and modification times of the file named by
|
|
.Fa path
|
|
or referenced by
|
|
.Fa fd
|
|
are changed as specified by the argument
|
|
.Fa times .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa times
|
|
is
|
|
.Dv NULL ,
|
|
the access and modification times are set to the current time.
|
|
The caller must be the owner of the file, have permission to
|
|
write the file, or be the super-user.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa times
|
|
is
|
|
.Pf non- Dv NULL ,
|
|
it is assumed to point to an array of two timeval structures.
|
|
The access time is set to the value of the first element, and the
|
|
modification time is set to the value of the second element.
|
|
The caller must be the owner of the file or be the super-user.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
In either case, the inode-change-time of the file is set to the current
|
|
time.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn lutimes
|
|
is like
|
|
.Fn utimes
|
|
except in the case where the named file is a symbolic link,
|
|
in which case
|
|
.Fn lutimes
|
|
changes the access and modification times of the link,
|
|
while
|
|
.Fn utimes
|
|
changes the times of the file the link references.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
Upon successful completion, a value of 0 is returned.
|
|
Otherwise, a value of -1 is returned and
|
|
.Va errno
|
|
is set to indicate the error.
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
.Fn utimes
|
|

|
|
will fail if:

Search permission is denied for a component of the path prefix;
|
|
or the
|
|
.Fa times
|
|
argument is
|
|
.Dv NULL
|
|
and the effective user ID of the process does not
|
|
match the owner of the file, and is not the super-user, and write
|
|
access is denied.
|
|
.It Bq Er EFAULT
|
|
.Fa path
|
|
or
|
|
.Fa times
|
|
points outside the process's allocated address space.

|
.It Bq Er ENOENT
|
|

|
|
.It Bq Er ENOTDIR
|
|
A component of the path prefix is not a directory.
|
|
.It Bq Er EPERM
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa times
|
|
argument is not
|
|
.Dv NULL
|

|
|
.It Bq Er EROFS
|
|
The file system containing the file is mounted read-only.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
