.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Fn open
function establishes the connection between a file and a file descriptor.
It creates an open file description that refers to a file and a file descriptor
that refers to that open file description.
The file descriptor is used by other I/O functions to refer to that file.
The
.Fa path
argument points to a pathname naming the file.
.Pp
The
.Fn openat
function is identical to the
.Fn open
function except
that the
.Fa path
argument is interpreted relative to the starting point
implied by the
.Fa fildes
argument.
If the
.Fa fildes
argument has the special value
.Dv AT_FDCWD ,
a relative path argument will be resolved relative to the current working
directory.
If the
.Fa path
argument is absolute, the
.Fa fildes
argument is ignored.
.Pp
The
.Fn open
function returns a file descriptor for the named file that is the lowest file
descriptor not currently open for that process.
The open file description is new, and therefore the file descriptor does not
share it with any other process in the system.
The
.Dv FD_CLOEXEC
file descriptor flag associated with the new file descriptor is cleared.
.Pp
The file offset used to mark the current position within the file is set to the
beginning of the file.
.Pp
The file status flags and file access modes of the open file description are
set according to the value of
.Fa oflag .
The
.Fa mode
argument is used only
when
.Dv O_CREAT
is specified
.Pq "see below" .
.Pp
Values for
.Fa oflag
are constructed by a bitwise-inclusive-OR of flags from
the following list, defined in
.Xr fcntl.h 3HEAD .
Applications must specify exactly one of the first three values (file access
modes) below in the value of
.Fa oflag :
.Bl -tag -width Ds
.It Dv O_RDONLY
Open for reading only.
.It Dv O_WRONLY
Open for writing only.
.It Dv O_RDWR
Open for reading and writing.
The result is undefined if this flag is applied to a FIFO.
.El
.Pp
Any combination of the following may be used:
.Bl -tag -width Ds
.It Dv O_APPEND
If set, the file offset is set to the end of the file prior to each write.
.It Dv O_CREAT
Create the file if it does not exist.
This flag requires that the
.Fa mode
argument be specified.
.Pp
If the file exists, this flag has no effect except as noted under
.Dv O_EXCL
below.
Otherwise, the file is created with the user ID of the file set to the
effective user ID of the process.
The group ID of the file is set to the effective group IDs of the process, or
if the
.Dv S_ISGID
bit is set in the directory in which the file is being created, the file's
group ID is set to the group ID of its parent directory.
If the group ID of the new file does not match the effective group
ID or one of the supplementary groups IDs, the
.Dv S_ISGID bit is cleared.
.Pp
The access permission bits
.Po
see
.Xr stat.h 3HEAD
.Pc
of the file mode are set to the value of
.Fa mode ,
modified as follows
.Po
see
.Xr creat 2
.Pc :
a bitwise-AND is performed on the file-mode bits and the corresponding bits in
the complement of the process's file mode creation mask.
Thus, all bits set in the process's file mode creation mask
.Po
see
.Xr umask 2
.Pc
are correspondingly cleared in the file's permission mask.
The
.Dq save text image after execution bit
of the mode is cleared
.Po
see
.Xr chmod 2
.Pc .
When bits other than the file permission bits are set, the effect is
unspecified.
The
.Fa mode
argument does not affect whether the file is open for reading, writing or for
both.
.It Dv O_DIRECT
Indicates that the file data is not going to be reused in the near future.
When possible, data is read or written directly between the application's
memory and the device when the data is accessed with
.Xr read 2
and
.Xr write 2
operations.
See
.Xr directio 3C
for more details.
.It Dv O_DIRECTORY
Indicates that attempts to open
.Fa path
should fail unless
.Fa path
is a directory.
If both
.Dv O_CREAT
and
.Dv O_DIRECTORY
are specified then the call will fail if it would result in a file being
created.
If a directory already exists at
.Fa path
then it will behave as if the
.Dv O_DIRECTORY
flag had not been present.
If the
.Dv O_EXCL
and
.Dv O_CREAT
flags are specified, then the call will always fail as they imply a file should
always be created.
.It Dv O_DSYNC
Write I/O operations on the file descriptor complete as defined by synchronized
I/O data integrity completion.
.It Dv O_EXCL
If
.Dv O_CREAT
and
.Dv O_EXCL
are set,
.Fn open
fails if the file exists.
The check for the existence of the file and the creation of the file if
it does not exist is atomic with respect to other threads executing
.Fn open
naming the same filename in the same directory with
.Dv O_EXCL
and
.Dv O_CREAT
set.
If
.Dv O_EXCL
and
.Dv O_CREAT
are set, and
.Fa path
names a symbolic link,
.Fn open
fails and sets
.Va errno
to
.Er EEXIST ,
regardless of the contents of the symbolic link.
If
.Dv O_EXCL
is set and
.Dv O_CREAT
is not set, the result is undefined.
.It Dv O_EXEC
If set, indicates that the file should be opened for execute permission.
This option is only valid for regular files; an error will be returned if the
target is not a regular file.
.It Dv O_LARGEFILE
If set, the offset maximum in the open file description is the largest value
that can be represented correctly in an object of type
.Vt off64_t .
.It Dv O_NOCTTY
If set and
.Fa path
identifies a terminal device,
.Fn open
does not cause the terminal device to become the controlling terminal for the
process.
.It Dv O_NOFOLLOW
If the path names a symbolic link,
.Fn open
fails and sets
.Va errno
to
.Er ELOOP .
.It Dv O_NOLINKS
If the link count of the named file is greater than
.Sy 1 ,
.Fn open
fails and sets
.Va errno
to
.Er EMLINK .
.It Dv O_CLOEXEC
If set, the file descriptor returned will be closed prior to any future
.Xr exec 2
calls.
.It Dv O_NONBLOCK O_NDELAY
These flags can affect subsequent reads and writes
.Po
see
.Xr read 2
and
.Xr write 2
.Pc .
If both
.Dv O_NDELAY
and
.Dv O_NONBLOCK
are set,
.Dv O_NONBLOCK
takes precedence.
.Pp
When opening a FIFO with
.Dv O_RDONLY
or
.Dv O_WRONLY
set:
.Bl -bullet
.It
If
.Dv O_NONBLOCK
or
.Dv O_NDELAY
is set, an
.Fn open
for reading only returns without delay.
An
.Fn open
for writing only returns an error if no process currently has the file open for
reading.
.It
If
.Dv O_NONBLOCK
and
.Dv O_NDELAY
are clear, an
.Fn open
for reading only blocks until a thread opens the file for writing.
An
.Fn open
for writing only blocks the calling thread until a thread opens the file for
reading.
.El
.Pp
After both ends of a FIFO have been opened once, there is no guarantee that
further calls to
.Fn open
.Dv O_RDONLY
.Pq Dv O_WRONLY
will synchronize with later calls to
.Fn open
.Dv O_WRONLY
.Pq Dv O_RDONLY
until both ends of the FIFO have been closed by all readers and writers.
Any data written into a FIFO will be lost if both ends of the FIFO are closed
before the data is read.
.Pp
When opening a block special or character special file that supports
non-blocking opens:
.Bl -bullet
.It
If
.Dv O_NONBLOCK
or
.Dv O_NDELAY
is set, the
.Fn open
function returns without blocking for the device to be ready or available.
Subsequent behavior of the device is device-specific.
.It
If
.Dv O_NONBLOCK
and
.Dv O_NDELAY
are clear, the
.Fn open
function blocks the calling thread until the device is ready or available
before returning.
.El
.Pp
Otherwise, the behavior of
.Dv O_NONBLOCK
and
.Dv O_NDELAY
is unspecified.
.It Dv O_RSYNC
Read I/O operations on the file descriptor complete at the same level of
integrity as specified by the
.Dv O_DSYNC
and
.Dv O_SYNC
flags.
If both
.Dv O_DSYNC
and
.Dv O_RSYNC
are set in
.Fa oflag ,
all I/O operations on the file descriptor complete as defined by synchronized
I/O data integrity completion.
If both
.Dv O_SYNC
and
.Dv O_RSYNC
are set in
.Fa oflag ,
all I/O operations on the file descriptor complete as defined by synchronized
I/O file integrity completion.
.It Dv O_SEARCH
If set, indicates that the directory should be opened for searching.
This option is only valid for a directory; an error will be returned if the
target is not a directory.
.It Dv O_SYNC
Write I/O operations on the file descriptor complete as defined by synchronized
I/O file integrity completion
.Po
see
.Xr fcntl.h 3HEAD
.Pc
definition of
.Dv O_SYNC .
.It Dv O_TRUNC
If the file exists and is a regular file, and the file is successfully opened
.Dv O_RDWR
or
.Dv O_WRONLY ,
its length is truncated to
.Sy 0
and the mode and owner are unchanged.
It has no effect on FIFO special files or terminal device files.
Its effect on other file types is implementation-dependent.
The result of using
.Dv O_TRUNC
with
.Dv O_RDONLY
is undefined.
.It Dv O_XATTR
If set in
.Fn openat ,
a relative path argument is interpreted as a reference to an extended attribute
of the file associated with the supplied file descriptor.
This flag therefore requires the presence of a legal
.Fa fildes
argument.
If set in
.Fn open ,
the implied file descriptor is that for the current working directory.
Extended attributes must be referenced with a relative path; providing an
absolute path results in a normal file reference.
.El
.Pp
If
.Dv O_CREAT
is set and the file did not previously exist, upon successful completion,
.Fn open
marks for update the
.Fa st_atime ,
.Fa st_ctime ,
and
.Fa st_mtime
fields of the file and the
.Fa st_ctime
and
.Fa st_mtime
fields of the parent directory.
.Pp
If
.Dv O_TRUNC
is set and the file did previously exist, upon successful completion,
.Fn open
marks for update the
.Fa st_ctime
and
.Fa st_mtime
fields of the file.
.Pp
If both the
.Dv O_SYNC
and
.Dv O_DSYNC
flags are set, the effect is as if only the
.Dv O_SYNC
flag was set.
.Pp
If
.Fa path
refers to a STREAMS file,
.Fa oflag
may be constructed from
.Dv O_NONBLOCK
or
.Dv O_NODELAY
OR-ed with either
.Dv O_RDONLY ,
.Dv O_WRONLY ,
or
.Dv O_RDWR .
Other flag values are not applicable to STREAMS devices and have no effect on
them.
The values
.Dv O_NONBLOCK
and
.Dv O_NODELAY
affect the operation of STREAMS drivers and certain functions
.Po
see
.Xr read 2 ,
.Xr getmsg 2 ,
.Xr putmsg 2 ,
and
.Xr write 2
.Pc
applied to file descriptors associated with STREAMS files.
For STREAMS drivers, the implementation of
.Dv O_NONBLOCK
and
.Dv O_NODELAY
is device-specific.
.Pp
When
.Fn open
is invoked to open a named stream, and the
.Xr connld 7M
module has been pushed on the pipe,
.Fn open
blocks until the server process has issued an
.Dv I_RECVFD
.Xr ioctl 2
.Po
see
.Xr streamio 7I
.Pc
to receive the file descriptor.
.Pp
If
.Fa path
names the manager side of a pseudo-terminal device, then it is unspecified
whether
.Fn open
locks the subsidiary side so that it cannot be opened.
Portable applications must call
.Xr unlockpt 3C
before opening the subsidiary side.
.Pp
If the file is a regular file and the local file system is mounted with the
.Cm nbmand
mount option, then a mandatory share reservation is automatically obtained on
the file.
The share reservation is obtained as if
.Xr fcntl 2
were called with
.Fa cmd
.Dv F_SHARE_NBMAND
and the
.Vt fshare_t
values set as follows:
.Bl -tag -width Ds -offset Ds
.It Fa f_access
Set to the type of read/write access for which the file is opened.
.It Fa f_deny
.Dv F_NODNY
.It Fa f_id
The file descriptor value returned from
.Fn open .
.El
.Pp
If
.Fa path
is a symbolic link and
.Dv O_CREAT
and
.Dv O_EXCL
are set, the link is not followed.
.Pp
Certain flag values can be set following
.Fn open
as described in
.Xr fcntl 2 .
.Pp
The largest value that can be represented correctly in an object of type
.Vt off_t
is established as the offset maximum in the open file description.
.Sh RETURN VALUES
The
.Fn open
and
.Fn openat
functions open the file and, if successful, return a non-negative integer
representing the lowest numbered unused file descriptor; otherwise the
value
.Sy -1
is returned and the global variable
.Va errno
is set to indicate the error and no files are created or modified.
.Sh EXAMPLES
.Sy Example 1
Open a file for writing by the owner.
.Pp
The following example opens the file
.Pa /tmp/file ,
either by creating it if it does not already exist, or by truncating its length
to
.Sy 0
if it does exist.
If the call creates a new file, the access permission bits in the file mode of
the file are set to permit reading and writing by the owner, and to permit
reading only by group members and others.
.Pp
If the call to
.Fn open
is successful, the file is opened for writing.

.Ed
.Pp
.Sy Example 2
Open a file using an existence check.
.Pp
The following example uses the
.Fn open
function to try to create the
.Dv LOCKFILE
file and open it for writing.
Since the
.Fn open
function specifies the
.Dv O_EXCL
flag, the call fails if the file already exists.
In that case, the application assumes that someone else is updating the
password file and exits.
