| Summary | 0000147: rename and trailing slash | ||||||
| Description |
The standard requires failure if the last component of the new argument to rename resolves to a non-directory but was spelled with a trailing slash (line 56929), but none of the error sections cover this case. In other words, while rename("file","missing/") is required to fail with ENOTDIR (line 57010) (Linux obeys this rule, but Solaris 10 mistakenly succeeds in renaming to the regular file "missing"), there is no indication which failure to expect for rename("file","file/") or rename("file","other/") (both Linux and Solaris 10 fail with ENOTDIR for these two cases). Furthermore, the standard requires rename("dir","missing/") to fail with ENOTDIR (line 57010), although both Linux and Solaris 10 allow this to succeed. The comparable rename("dir","dir/") and rename("dir","emptydir/") are required to succeed. In this case, it seems inconsistent to allow the success of renaming a directory with a trailing slash to depend on whether the destination already exists. |

| Desired Action |
Replace line 57005: [ENOTDIR] A component of either path prefix is not a directory; or the old argument names a directory and the new argument names a non-directory file; or the old argument contains at least one non-<slash> character and ends with one or more trailing <slash> characters and the last pathname component names an existing file that is neither a directory nor a symbolic link to a directory; or the new argument names a nonexistant file, contains at least one non-<slash> character, and ends with one or more trailing <slash> characters. with: [ENOTDIR] A component of either path prefix is not a directory; or the old argument names a directory and the new argument names a non-directory file; or the old argument contains at least one non-<slash> character and ends with one or more trailing <slash> characters and the last pathname component names an existing file that is neither a directory nor a symbolic link to a directory; or the old argument does not name a directory, and the new argument names a nonexistant file, contains at least one non-<slash> character, and ends with one or more trailing <slash> characters; or the new argument names an existing file that is not a directory, contains at least one non-<slash> character, and ends with one or more trailing <slash> characters. |

The proposed wording is not quite right in a few places. I think the existing text: or the new argument names a nonexistant file, contains at least one non-<slash> character, and ends with one or more trailing <slash> characters. should become: or the old argument names an existing non-directory file and the new argument names a nonexistant file, contains at least one non-<slash> character, and ends with one or more trailing <slash> characters; or the new argument names an existing non-directory file, contains at least one non-<slash> character, and ends with one or more trailing <slash> characters. Also, link() has a similar problem. I think the period at the end of the ENOTDIR error on the link() page should be replaced with: , or the path1 argument names an existing non-directory file and the path2 argument names a nonexistant file, contains at least one non-<slash> character, and ends with one or more trailing <slash> characters. |
