In addition, - there are three values that can be ORed with the <i>omode</i>: <tt><font size=+1>OTRUNC</font></tt> - says to truncate the file to zero length - before opening it; <tt><font size=+1>OCEXEC</font></tt> says to close the file when an <a href="../man3/exec.html"><i>exec</i>(3)</a> - or <i>execl</i> system call is made; and <tt><font size=+1>ORCLOSE</font></tt> says to remove the file - when it is closed (by everyone who has a copy of the file descriptor). - <i>Open</i> fails if the file does not exist or the user does not have - permission to open it for the requested purpose (see - <a href="../man3/stat.html"><i>stat</i>(3)</a> for a description of permissions). The user must have - write permission on the <i>file</i> if the <tt><font size=+1>OTRUNC</font></tt> bit is set. For the - <i>open</i> system call (unlike the implicit <i>open</i> in <a href="../man3/exec.html"><i>exec</i>(3)</a>), <tt><font size=+1>OEXEC</font></tt> - is actually identical to <tt><font size=+1>OREAD</font></tt>. - <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table> - - <i>Create</i> creates a new <i>file</i> or prepares to rewrite an existing <i>file</i>, - opens it according to <i>omode</i> (as described for <i>open</i>), and returns - an associated file descriptor. If the file is new, the owner is - set to the userid of the creating process group; the group to - that of the containing directory; the permissions to <i>perm</i> ANDed - with - the permissions of the containing directory. If the file already - exists, it is truncated to 0 length, and the permissions, owner, - and group remain unchanged. The created file is a directory if - the <tt><font size=+1>DMDIR</font></tt> bit is set in <i>perm</i>, an exclusive-use file if the <tt><font size=+1>DMEXCL</font></tt> - bit is set, and an append-only file if the <tt><font size=+1>DMAPPEND</font></tt> bit is set. - Exclusive-use files may be open for I/O by only one client at - a time, but the file descriptor may become invalid if no I/O is - done for an extended period; see <i>open</i>(9p). - <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table> - - <i>Create</i> fails if the path up to the last element of <i>file</i> cannot - be evaluated, if the user doesn’t have write permission in the - final directory, if the file already exists and does not permit - the access defined by <i>omode</i>, of if there there are no free file - descriptors.
