.fi

.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The \fBfind\fR utility recursively descends the directory hierarchy for each
\fIpath\fR seeking files that match a Boolean \fIexpression\fR written in the
primaries specified below.
.sp
.LP
\fBfind\fR is able to descend to arbitrary depths in a file hierarchy and does
not fail due to path length limitations (unless a \fIpath\fR operand specified
by the application exceeds \fIPATH_MAX\fR requirements).
.sp
.LP
\fBfind\fR detects infinite loops; that is, entering a previously visited
directory that is an ancestor of the last file encountered.
.SH OPTIONS
.sp
.LP
The following options are supported:
.sp
.ne 2
.mk
.na
\fB\fB-H\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 6n
.rt  
Causes the file information and file type evaluated for each symbolic link
encountered on the command line to be those of the file referenced by the link,
and not the link itself. If the referenced file does not exist, the file
information and type is for the link itself. File information for all symbolic
links not on the command line is that of the link itself.
.RE

.sp
.ne 2
.mk
.na
\fB\fB-L\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 6n
.rt  
Causes the file information and file type evaluated for each symbolic link to
be those of the file referenced by the link, and not the link itself. See
\fBNOTES\fR.
.RE

.LP
Specifying more than one of the mutually-exclusive options \fB-H\fR and
\fB-L\fRis not considered an error. The last option specified determines the
behavior of the utility.

.LP
The following operands are supported:
.sp

The first argument that starts with a \fB\(mi\fR, or is a \fB!\fR or a \fB(\fR,
and all subsequent arguments are interpreted as an \fIexpression\fR made up of
the following primaries and operators. In the descriptions, wherever \fIn\fR is
used as a primary argument, it is interpreted as a decimal integer optionally

.RE

.sp
.ne 2
.mk
.na
\fB\fB-depth\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 17n
.rt  
Always true. Causes descent of the directory hierarchy to be done so that all
entries in a directory are acted on before the directory itself. This can be
useful when \fBfind\fR is used with \fBcpio\fR(1) to transfer files that are
contained in directories without write permission.
.RE

.sp
.ne 2
.mk
.na
\fB\fB-exec\fR \fIcommand\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 17n
.rt  
True if the executed command returns a zero value as exit status. The end of
command must be punctuated by an escaped semicolon (\fB;\fR). A command
argument \fB{}\fR is replaced by the current pathname. If the last argument to
\fB-exec\fR is \fB{}\fR and you specify \fB+\fR rather than the semicolon
(\fB;\fR), the command is invoked fewer times, with \fB{}\fR replaced by groups
of pathnames. If any invocation of the command returns a non-zero value as exit
status, find returns a non-zero exit status.
.RE

.sp
.ne 2
.mk
.na
\fB\fB-follow\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 17n
.rt  
Always true and always evaluated no matter where it appears in
\fIexpression\fR. The behavior is unspecified if \fB-follow\fR is used when the
\fBfind\fR command is invoked with either the \fB-H\fR or the \fB-L\fR option.
Causes symbolic links to be followed. When following symbolic links, \fBfind\fR
keeps track of the directories visited so that it can detect infinite loops.
For example, such a loop would occur if a symbolic link pointed to an ancestor.
This expression should not be used with the find-type \fBl\fR expression. See
\fBNOTES\fR.

Unless the character '\fB\&.\fR' is explicitly specified in the beginning of

\fIpattern\fR when using \fB/usr/bin/find\fR. \fB/usr/xpg4/bin/find\fR does not

.RE

The \fIop\fR symbol of \fB\(mi\fR cannot be the first character of \fImode\fR,
to avoid ambiguity with the optional leading hyphen. Since the initial mode is
all bits off, there are no symbolic modes that need to use \fB\(mi\fR as the
first character.
.sp
If the hyphen is omitted, the primary evaluates as true when the file
permission bits exactly match the value of the resulting template.

Otherwise, if \fImode\fR is prefixed by a hyphen, the primary evaluates as true
if at least all the bits in the resulting template are set in the file
permission bits.

.SH NOTES
.sp
.LP
When using \fBfind\fR to determine files modified within a range of time, use
the \fB-mtime\fR argument \fBbefore\fR the \fB-print\fR argument. Otherwise,
\fBfind\fR gives all files.
.sp
.LP
Some files that might be under the Solaris root file system are actually mount
points for virtual file systems, such as \fBmntfs\fR or \fBnamefs\fR. When
comparing against a \fBufs\fR file system, such files are not selected if
\fB-mount\fR or \fB-xdev\fR is specified in the \fBfind\fR expression.
.sp
.LP
Using the \fB-L\fR or \fB-follow\fR option is not recommended when descending a
file-system hierarchy that is under the control of other users. In particular,
when using \fB-exec\fR, symbolic links can lead the \fBfind\fR command out of
the hierarchy in which it started. Using \fB-type\fR is not sufficient to
restrict the type of files on which the \fB-exec\fR command operates, because
there is an inherent race condition between the type-check performed by the
\fBfind\fR command and the time the executed command operates on the file
argument.
