F_DUPFD_CLOEXEC implementation
One more small change to extend the availability of creation of file descriptors with FD_CLOEXEC set. Adding a new command to fcntl() requires no new system call and the overall impact on code size if minimal. If this patch gets accepted we will also add this change to the next revision of the POSIX spec. To test the patch, use the following little program. Adjust the value of F_DUPFD_CLOEXEC appropriately. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #include <errno.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <unistd.h> #ifndef F_DUPFD_CLOEXEC # define F_DUPFD_CLOEXEC 12 #endif int main (int argc, char *argv[]) { if (argc > 1) { if (fcntl (3, F_GETFD) == 0) { puts ("descriptor not closed"); exit (1); } if (errno != EBADF) { puts ("error not EBADF"); exit (1); } exit (0); } int fd = fcntl (STDOUT_FILENO, F_DUPFD_CLOEXEC, 0); if (fd == -1 && errno == EINVAL) { puts ("F_DUPFD_CLOEXEC not supported"); return 0; } if (fd != 3) { puts ("program called with descriptors other than 0,1,2"); return 1; } execl ("/proc/self/exe", "/proc/self/exe", "1", NULL); puts ("execl failed"); return 1; } ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Signed-off-by: Ulrich Drepper <drepper@redhat.com> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Cc: <linux-arch@vger.kernel.org> Cc: Kyle McMartin <kyle@mcmartin.ca> Cc: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
