.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In spawn.h
|
|

|

|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
These functions add an open, dup2 or close action to a spawn
|
|
file actions object.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
A spawn file actions object is of type
|
|
.Vt posix_spawn_file_actions_t
|
|
(defined in
|
|
.In spawn.h )
|
|
and is used to specify a series of actions to be performed by a
|
|
.Fn posix_spawn
|
|
or
|
|
.Fn posix_spawnp
|
|
operation in order to arrive at the set of open file descriptors for the
|
|
child process given the set of open file descriptors of the parent.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
A spawn file actions object, when passed to
|
|
.Fn posix_spawn
|
|
or
|
|
.Fn posix_spawnp ,
|
|
specify how the set of open file descriptors in the calling
|
|
process is transformed into a set of potentially open file descriptors
|
|
for the spawned process.
|
|
This transformation is as if the specified sequence of actions was
|
|
performed exactly once, in the context of the spawned process (prior to
|
|
execution of the new process image), in the order in which the actions
|
|
were added to the object; additionally, when the new process image is
|
|
executed, any file descriptor (from this new set) which has its
|
|
.Dv FD_CLOEXEC
|
|
flag set is closed (see
|
|
.Fn posix_spawn ) .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn posix_spawn_file_actions_addopen
|
|
function adds an open action to the object referenced by
|
|
.Fa file_actions
|
|
that causes the file named by
|
|
.Fa path
|
|
to be opened (as if
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
open(path, oflag, mode)
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
had been called, and the returned file descriptor, if not
|
|
.Fa fildes ,
|
|
had been changed to
|
|
.Fa fildes )
|
|
when a new process is spawned using this file actions object.
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa fildes
|
|
was already an open file descriptor, it is closed before the new
|
|
file is opened.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The string described by
|
|
.Fa path
|
|
is copied by the
|
|
.Fn posix_spawn_file_actions_addopen
|
|
function.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn posix_spawn_file_actions_adddup2
|
|
function adds a dup2 action to the object referenced by
|
|
.Fa file_actions
|
|
that causes the file descriptor
|
|
.Fa fildes
|
|
to be duplicated as
|
|
.Fa newfildes
|
|
(as if
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
dup2(fildes, newfildes)
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
had been called) when a new process is spawned using this file actions object,
|
|
except that the
|
|
.Dv FD_CLOEXEC
|
|
flag for
|
|
.Fa newfildes
|
|
is cleared even if
|
|
.Fa fildes
|
|
is equal to
|
|
.Fa newfildes .
|
|
The difference from
|
|
.Fn dup2
|
|
is useful for passing a particular file descriptor
|
|
to a particular child process.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn posix_spawn_file_actions_addclose
|
|
function adds a close action to the object referenced by
|
|
.Fa file_actions
|
|
that causes the file descriptor
|
|
.Fa fildes
|
|
to be closed (as if
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
close(fildes)
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
had been called) when a new process is spawned using this file actions
|
|
object.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
Upon successful completion, these functions return zero;
|
|
otherwise, an error number is returned to indicate the error.
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
These
|
|
functions fail if:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er
|
|
.It Bq Er EBADF
|
|
The value specified by
|
|
.Fa fildes
|
|
or
|
|
.Fa newfildes
|
|
is negative.
|
|
.It Bq Er ENOMEM
|
|
Insufficient memory exists to add to the spawn file actions object.

The

.Fn posix_spawn_file_actions_addopen ,
|
|
.Fn posix_spawn_file_actions_adddup2
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn posix_spawn_file_actions_addclose
|
|
functions conform to
|
|
.St -p1003.1-2001 ,
|
|
with the exception of the behavior of
|
|
.Fn posix_spawn_file_actions_adddup2
|
|
if
|
|
.Fa fildes
|
|
is equal to
|
|
.Fa newfildes
|
|
(clearing
|
|
.Dv FD_CLOEXEC ) .
|
|
A future update of the Standard is expected to require this behavior.
