Summary |
0001381: ftruncate() missing EINVAL from POSIX.1-1996 |
|
Description |
POSIX.1-1996 specified the following error for ftruncate():[EINVAL] The fildes argument does not refer to a file on which this operation is possible. This was omitted when POSIX.1-1996 and SUSv2 were merged to form POSIX.1-2001/SUSv3.
For consistency, truncate() should also have an equivalent EINVAL error.
|
|
Desired Action |
On page 980 line 33344 section ftruncate() EINVAL, change:The length argument was less than 0. to:The length argument is less than 0 or the fildes argument refers to a file on which this operation is not possible (for example, a pipe, FIFO or socket).
On page 2178 line 69765 section truncate() EINVAL, change:The length argument was less than 0. to:The length argument is less than 0 or the path argument refers to a file, other than a directory, on which this operation is not possible (for example, a FIFO or socket).
(The editors may also want to rearrange both ERRORS sections into alphabetical order.)
