- CREAT(2) Minix Programmer's Manual CREAT(2)
- NAME
- creat - create a new file
- SYNOPSIS
- #include <sys/types.h>
- #include <fcntl.h>
- int creat(const char *name, mode_t mode)
- DESCRIPTION
- This interface is made obsolete by open(2), it is equivalent to
- open(name, O_WRONLY | O_CREAT | O_TRUNC, mode)
- Creat creates a new file or prepares to rewrite an existing file called
- name, given as the address of a null-terminated string. If the file did
- not exist, it is given mode mode, as modified by the process's mode mask
- (see umask(2)). Also see chmod(2) for the construction of the mode
- argument.
- If the file did exist, its mode and owner remain unchanged but it is
- truncated to 0 length.
- The file is also opened for writing, and its file descriptor is returned.
- NOTES
- The mode given is arbitrary; it need not allow writing. This feature has
- been used in the past by programs to construct a simple, exclusive
- locking mechanism. It is replaced by the O_EXCL open mode, or the
- advisory locking of the fcntl(2) facility.
- RETURN VALUE
- The value -1 is returned if an error occurs. Otherwise, the call returns
- a non-negative descriptor that only permits writing.
- ERRORS
- Creat will fail and the file will not be created or truncated if one of
- the following occur:
- [ENOTDIR] A component of the path prefix is not a directory.
- [ENAMETOOLONG] The path name exceeds PATH_MAX characters.
- [ENOENT] The named file does not exist.
- [ELOOP] Too many symbolic links were encountered in translating
- the pathname. (Minix-vmd)

- CREAT(2) Minix Programmer's Manual CREAT(2)
- [EACCES] Search permission is denied for a component of the path
- prefix.
- [EACCES] The file does not exist and the directory in which it is
- to be created is not writable.
- [EACCES] The file exists, but it is unwritable.
- [EISDIR] The file is a directory.
- [EMFILE] There are already too many files open.
- [ENFILE] The system file table is full.
- [ENOSPC] The directory in which the entry for the new file is being
- placed cannot be extended because there is no space left
- on the file system containing the directory.
- [ENOSPC] There are no free inodes on the file system on which the
- file is being created.
- [EROFS] The named file resides on a read-only file system.
- [ENXIO] The file is a character special or block special file, and
- the associated device does not exist.
- [EIO] An I/O error occurred while making the directory entry or
- allocating the inode.
- [EFAULT] Name points outside the process's allocated address space.
- SEE ALSO
- open(2), write(2), close(2), chmod(2), umask(2).
