Summary |
0001843: description of O_EXEC+O_SEARCH not updated after defect 658 |
|
Description |
Defect 658 specified the legal behaviors of open(O_EXEC) on directory and open(O_SEARCH) on a non-directory, but the fcntl.h description wasn't updated to match.
O_EXEC Open for execute only (non-directory files). The result is
unspecified if this flag is applied to a directory.
...
O_SEARCH Open directory for search only. The result is unspecified if
this flag is applied to a non-directory file.
The second sentence of each description is no longer true: the permitted behaviors are specified.
|
|
Desired Action |
Since the permitted behaviors of open/openat are specified in their specific pages, I think we should just delete the second sentence ("The result is unspecified...") from each item. |
