NAME

fcntl() — file command

SYNOPSIS

#include <fcntl.h>

int fcntl(int fildes, int cmd, ... /* arg */);

Remarks

The ANSI C ", ... " construct denotes a variable length argument list whose optional [or required] members are given in the associated annotate (/* */).

DESCRIPTION

fcntl() provides for control over open files. fildes is an open file descriptor.

The following are possible values for the cmd argument:

F_ADVISE

Fadvise service asking (run across fadvise(two) ).

F_DUPFD

Return a new file descriptor having the following characteristics:

  • Lowest numbered bachelor file descriptor greater than or equal to the third argument, arg , taken equally an integer of type int.

  • Same open file (or piping) every bit the original file.

  • Same file pointer as the original file (that is, both file descriptors share ane file pointer).

  • Aforementioned admission mode (read, write or read/write).

  • Same file status flags (that is, both file descriptors share the same file status flags).

  • The close-on-exec flag associated with the new file descriptor is set to remain open across exec() system calls.

F_GETFD

Get the file descriptor flags (divers in <fcntl.h>) that are associated with the file descriptor fildes . File descriptor flags are associated with a single file descriptor and do not affect other file descriptors that refer to the same file.

F_SETFD

Set the file descriptor flags (divers in <fcntl.h>) that are associated with fildes , to the third argument, arg , taken as an integer of type int (meet F_GETFD). If the FD_CLOEXEC flag in the third argument is 0, the file will remain open across exec(); otherwise, the file will be closed upon execution of exec().

F_GETFL

Become file status flags and access modes; see fcntl(5) .

F_SETFL

Set file status flags to the tertiary argument, arg , taken every bit an integer of type int. Just certain flags can be set; meet fcntl(5) . It is non possible to set both O_NDELAY and O_NONBLOCK.

F_GETLK

Get the offset lock that blocks the lock described by the variable of type struct flock pointed to by the tertiary statement, arg , taken as a arrow to type struct flock. The data retrieved overwrites the information passed to fcntl() in the flock structure. If no lock is constitute that would prevent this lock from being created, the structure is passed back unchanged, except that the lock type is set to F_UNLCK.

F_SETLK

Set or clear a file segment lock according to the variable of type struct flock pointed to by the third statement, arg , taken as a pointer to blazon struct flock (see fcntl(5) ). The cmd F_SETLK is used to establish read (F_RDLCK) and write (F_WRLCK) locks, as well every bit to remove either blazon of lock (F_UNLCK). If a read or write lock cannot be set up, fcntl() returns immediately with an fault value of -1.

F_SETLKW

This cmd is the same as F_SETLK except that if a read or write lock is blocked by other locks, the process will slumber until the segment is gratis to be locked.

F_GETLK64

Same as F_GETLK, except arg is a pointer to struct flock64 instead of struct flock.

F_SETLK64

Same as F_SETLK, except arg is a pointer to struct flock64 instead of struct flock.

F_SETLKW64

Aforementioned as F_SETLKW, except arg is a pointer to struct flock64 instead of struct flock.

F_GETOWN

If fildes refers to a socket, fcntl() returns the procedure or procedure grouping ID specified to receive SIGURG signals when out-of-band data is available. Positive values indicate a process ID; negative values, other than -i, point a process group ID.

F_SETOWN

If fildes refers to a socket, fcntl() sets the process or process group ID specified to receive SIGURG signals when out-of-band data is available, using the value of the 3rd argument, arg, taken as type int. Positive values point a process ID; negative values, other than -i, point a process grouping ID.

F_GETTIMES

Gets the current times for the file identified by fildes . The F_GETTIMES third argument, arg , is a pointer to the struct attr_timbuf divers in <sys/fcntl1.h> (see F_SETTIMES).

F_SETTIMES

Sets the electric current times for the file identified by fildes . To execute the cmd without error, F_SETTIMES requires superuser privilege. The F_SETTIMES third argument, arg , is a pointer to the struct attr_timbuf that is divers in <sys/fcntl1.h>. The attr_timbuf structure contains the file's atime (access time), mtime (modification time), and ctime (file aspect alter time) values. Here is the definition of the construction:

struct attr_timbuf { timestruc_t atime; /* access */ timestruc_t mtime; /* data modification */ timestruc_t ctime; /* aspect alter */ };

This cmd is useful when it is necessary to save a file's current time values and and so, after copying or moving the file, prepare dorsum atime and mtime . Note that ctime is not restored to the original value; the value of ctime after F_SETTIMES is file system dependent.

An instance using F_GETTIMES and F_SETTIMES follows:

# include <sys/fcntl.h> # include <sys/fcntl1.h> int main() { int fd ; struct attr_timbuf tstamp; /* Create a file*/ fd=open up("/var/tmp/foo",O_CREAT|O_RDWR); /* Use F_GETTIMES to obtain the current times * of the file */ fcntl(fd,F_GETTIMES,&tstamp); /* Access or modify fd */ /* Now employ F_SETTIMES to reinstate the * original atime and mtime. */ fcntl(fd,F_SETTIMES,&tstamp); }

F_SHARE

Sets a share reservation on a file with the specified admission mode and designates which types of access to deny. The details of the file share reservation request are specified using the third argument arg , which should exist a pointer to a struct fshare (defined in <sys/fcntl.h>). See the File Share Reservations section below.

F_UNSHARE

Removes an existing share reservation.

A read lock prevents any other process from write-locking the protected area. More than ane read lock can be for a given segment of a file at a given time. The file descriptor on which a read lock is being placed must have been opened with read access.

A write lock prevents whatsoever other procedure from read-locking or write-locking the protected surface area. Only one write lock may exist for a given segment of a file at a given fourth dimension. The file descriptor on which a write lock is being placed must have been opened with write access.

The structure flock describes the type (l_type), starting offset (l_whence), relative beginning (l_start), size (l_len), and process ID (l_pid) of the segment of the file to be afflicted. The process ID field is just used with the F_GETLK cmd to return the value of a block in lock. Locks can first and extend beyond the electric current end of a file, but cannot be negative relative to the beginning of the file. A lock can be set to always extend to the terminate of file by setting l_len to zero (0). If such a lock likewise has l_start gear up to zero (0), the whole file will be locked. Changing or unlocking a segment from the center of a larger locked segment leaves two smaller segments for either end. Locking a segment already locked by the calling procedure causes the old lock type to be removed and the new lock type to take effect. All locks associated with a file for a given procedure are removed when a file descriptor for that file is closed by that procedure or the process holding that file descriptor terminates. Locks are not inherited by a child procedure in a fork() arrangement call.

When enforcement-mode file and tape locking is activated on a file (see chmod(ii) ), future creat(), open(), read(), write(), truncate(), and ftruncate() system calls on the file are affected by the record locks in effect.

File Share Reservations

File share reservations are an advisory form of admission control among cooperating processes, on both local and remote machines. They are most ordinarily used past DOS or Windows emulators and DOS based NFS clients. The fcntl() system telephone call tin can be used to gear up file share reservations via the F_SHARE command.

A share reservation is described by an fshare construction defined in <sys/fcntl.h> as follows:

struct fshare { short f_access; curt f_deny; long f_id; };

The structure fshare describes the blazon of admission (f_access), to be requested on the open file descriptor. If the command succeeds it besides specifies what type of admission to deny other processes (f_deny), A single process on the same file may hold several non-conflicting reservations by specifying an identifier, (f_id), unique to the process with each share reservation asking.

Valid f_access values are:

R_RDACC

Gear up a file share reservation for read-just access.

R_WRACC

Set a file share reservation for write-but access.

R_RWACC

Set a file share reservation for read-write access.

Valid f_deny values are:

F_COMPAT

Set a file share reservation to compatibility mode.

F_RDDNY

Set a file share reservation to deny read access to other processes.

F_WRDNY

Set a file share reservation to deny write access to other processes.

F_RWDNY

Prepare a file share reservation to deny read and write access to other processes.

F_NODNY

Fix a file share reservation to non deny read or write admission to other processes.

Oplocks

An oplock is a blazon of caching hint used by and large by CIFS clients and then they may cache data locally. This helps increase operation by non having to read data across a network each fourth dimension a file operation is performed. The oplock guarantees that no other remote process is accessing the file in a way that might atomic number 82 to data inconsistencies.

The following arguments are supported for oplocks.

F_SETOPLOCK

Requests an opportunistic lock reservation (oplock) on a file. The supported oplock types are defined in <sys/oplock.h>.

F_SETOPLOCKW

Requests an opportunistic lock reservation (oplock) on a file and volition wait (in other words, block) until the request may be granted.

F_REMOVEOPLOCK

Removes all oplocks past pid.

F_HAVEOPLOCK

Checks to see if an oplock is nowadays on a file. The possible returns values are i of the oplock types defined in <sys/oplock.h>.

An oplock request is described past an oplock structure which is defined in <sys/oplock.h> every bit follows:

struct oplock{ int64_t o_owner; sysid_t o_member_id; int64_t o_type; sysid_t o_sysid; pid_t o_pid; int64_t o_flags; int64_t o_retry; int64_t o_timeout; int64_t o_sig_val; };

The structure oplock describes the details of the lock beingness requested on the opened file descriptor. If the command succeeds information technology also contains the owner ID (o_owner) of the procedure as well as the type of oplock (o_type) being requested. The o_sysid may also be specified. The process ID (o_pid) is the requesting process with which to acquaintance the oplock. Optional flags o_flags, o_timeout, and signal value (o_sig_val) may also be specified.

The only field in this construction which must be assigned is o_type. The other fields are either optional or non used and should exist initialized to zero (0).

The fields in the oplock construction are described here:

o_owner

Possessor type. Any integer; however, 0x8000 is reserved.

o_member_id

Fellow member ID. Any unique integer of type sysid_t.

o_type

Type of oplock. May exist one of these values:

VFS_OPLOCK_NONE

Removes an oplock.

VFS_OPLOCK_SHARED

Request a shared oplock.

VFS_OPLOCK_EXCLUSIVE

Asking an exclusive oplock.

VFS_OPLOCK_BATCH

Request a batch oplock. (Requires CIFS stacked file system support)

o_sysid

The system ID of the locking process. This is an optional value.

o_pid

The process ID of the procedure that owns the oplock. This does not need to exist filled in by the application, every bit this is done internally.

o_flags

This field is not currently used and is here for future needs. Information technology is recommended this exist initialized to naught (0).

o_retry

This field is the number of retries to gracefully request that an oplock exist broken. Subsequently the number of retries are wearied, and so the oplock will be removed without acknowledgment from the process that owns it.

o_timeout

This value represents the wait time in seconds that the kernel will expect before re-sending the oplock break signal. The total time that an application may wait for an oplock is (o_retry+1) multiplied by o_timeout seconds.

o_sig_val

A value to be sent with signal to a process upon an oplock being cleaved.

Awarding Usage

Considering in the future the external variable errno will be fix to EAGAIN rather than EACCES when a section of a file is already locked past another process, portable application programs should expect and exam for either value. For example:

flk->l_type = F_RDLCK; if (fcntl(fd, F_SETLK, flk) == -i) if ((errno == EACCES) || (errno == EAGAIN)) /* * section locked by some other procedure, * check for either EAGAIN or EACCES * due to different implementations */ else if ... /* * check for other errors */

NETWORKING FEATURES

NFS

The advisory record-locking capabilities of fcntl() are implemented throughout the network by the "network lock daemon" (see lockd(1M) ). If the file server crashes and is rebooted, the lock daemon attempts to recover all locks associated with the crashed server. If a lock cannot exist reclaimed, the process that held the lock is issued a SIGLOST signal.

Record locking, equally implemented for NFS files, is simply advisory.

RETURN VALUE

Upon successful completion, the value returned depends on cmd as follows:

F_ADVISE

[ENOSYS]

ENOSYS cmd is F_SETOPLOCK or F_SETOPLOCKW and the arg is VFS_OPLOCK_FILTER which is currently defined but not supported.

ENOTSOCK

cmd is F_GETOWN or F_SETOWN, and fildes does non refer to a socket.
