FD_MKDIR(3H) — Pixar Programmer’s Manual — libfd

NAME

fd_mkdir− make directory on fast-disk filesystem

fd_mkdir(name, mode)
char ∗name;
int mode;

Fd_mkdir creates a new Fast-Disk directory with the name name. The mode argument is presently unused and should be zero.

Directories can be removed with fd_unlink.

The value 0 indicates success. If an error occurs, the value -1 is returned and an error code is returned in errno.

Fd_mkdir will fail under the following circumstances:

[ENOTDIR] A component of the path prefix is not a directory.

[ENOENT] A component of the path prefix does not exist.

[EEXIST] The name argument specifies an existing file or directory.

[ENOSPC] There is no space in the filesystem to accommodate the new directory.

[EROFS] Name resides in a read-only Fast-Disk filesystem.

[EIO] An I/O error occurred while making the directory or allocating space.

[ENOMEM] No memory was available in the user’s process to allocate various resources.
