| Summary | 0001729: mkdir() ENOENT and ENOTDIR overlap | ||||
| Description | For a call such as:mkdir("regular_file/foo", mode)the descriptions of ENOENT and ENOTDIR on the mkdir() page both apply: [ENOENT]For other file creation functions, e.g. open(), mkfifo(), and fopen(), ENOENT uses "existing file" instead of "existing directory", avoiding this problem.A component of the path prefix specified by path does not name an existing directory ...[ENOTDIR]A component of the path prefix names an existing file that is neither a directory nor a symbolic link to a directory. Also, strictly speaking path does not specify a path prefix (it specifies a complete pathname). Again, other pages don't have this problem, as they refer to "the path prefix of path". | ||||
| Desired Action | Change:A component of the path prefix specified by path does not name an existing directoryto: A component of the path prefix of path does not name an existing file | ||||
