An implementation of this version of the specification may not claim to be an implementation of the Linux Standard Base unless it has successfully completed the compliance process as defined by the Free Standards Group. _________________________________________________________ Introduction The LSB defines a binary interface for application programs that are compiled and packaged for LSB-conforming implementations on many different hardware architectures. Since a binary specification shall include information specific to the computer processor architecture for which it is intended, it is not possible for a single document to specify the interface for all possible LSB-conforming implementations. Therefore, the LSB is a family of specifications, rather than a single one. This document should be used in conjunction with the documents it references. This document enumerates the system components it includes, but descriptions of those components may be included entirely or partly in this document, partly in other documents, or entirely in other reference documents. For example, the section that describes system service routines includes a list of the system routines supported in this interface, formal declarations of the data structures they use that are visible to applications, and a pointer to the underlying referenced specification for information about the syntax and semantics of each call. Only those routines not described in standards referenced by this document, or extensions to those standards, are described in the detail. Information referenced in this way is as much a part of this document as is the information explicitly included here. The specification carries a version number of either the form x.y or x.y.z. This version number carries the following meaning: * The first number (x) is the major version number. All versions with the same major version number should share binary compatibility. Any addition or deletion of a new library results in a new version number. Interfaces marked as deprecated may be removed from the specification at a major version change. * The second number (y) is the minor version number. Individual interfaces may be added if all certified implementations already had that (previously undocumented) interface. Interfaces may be marked as deprecated at a minor version change. Other minor changes may be permitted at the discretion of the LSB workgroup. * The third number (z), if present, is the editorial level. Only editorial changes should be included in such versions. I.

Relationship To ISO/IEC 9945 POSIX _________________________________________________________ Chapter 1. Scope 1.1. General The Linux Standard Base (LSB) defines a system interface for compiled applications and a minimal environment for support of installation scripts. Its purpose is to enable a uniform industry standard environment for high-volume applications conforming to the LSB. These specifications are composed of two basic parts: A common specification ("LSB-generic") describing those parts of the interface that remain constant across all implementations of the LSB, and an architecture-specific specification ("LSB-arch") describing the parts of the interface that vary by processor architecture. Together, the LSB-generic and the architecture-specific supplement for a single hardware architecture provide a complete interface specification for compiled application programs on systems that share a common hardware architecture. The LSB-generic document shall be used in conjunction with an architecture-specific supplement. Whenever a section of the LSB-generic specification shall be supplemented by architecture-specific information, the LSB-generic document includes a reference to the architecture supplement. Architecture supplements may also contain additional information that is not referenced in the LSB-generic document. The LSB contains both a set of Application Program Interfaces (APIs) and Application Binary Interfaces (ABIs). APIs may appear in the source code of portable applications, while the compiled binary of that application may use the larger set of ABIs. A conforming implementation shall provide all of the ABIs listed here. The compilation system may replace (e.g. by macro definition) certain APIs with calls to one or more of the underlying binary interfaces, and may insert calls to binary interfaces as needed. The LSB is primarily a binary interface definition. Not all of the source level APIs available to applications may be contained in this specification. _________________________________________________________ 1.2. Module Specific Scope This is the Core module of the Linux Standards Base (LSB). This module provides the fundamental system interfaces, libraries, and runtime environment upon which all conforming applications and libraries depend. Interfaces described in this module are mandatory except where explicitly listed otherwise. Core interfaces may be supplemented by other modules; all modules are built upon the core. _________________________________________________________ Chapter 2. Normative References The specifications listed below are referenced in whole or in part by the Linux Standard Base. In this specification, where only a particular section of one of these references is identified, then the normative reference is to that section alone, and the rest of the referenced document is informative.

Requirements 3.1. Relevant Libraries The libraries listed in Table 3-1 shall be available on a Linux Standard Base system, with the specified runtime names. The libraries listed in Table 3-2 are architecture specific, but shall be available on all LSB conforming systems. This list may be supplemented or amended by the architecture-specific specification. Table 3-1. Standard Library Names Library Runtime Name libdl libdl.so.2 libcrypt libcrypt.so.1 libz libz.so.1 libncurses libncurses.so.5 libutil libutil.so.1 libpthread libpthread.so.0 libpam libpam.so.0 libgcc_s libgcc_s.so.1 Table 3-2. Standard Library Names defined in the Architecture Specific Supplement Library Runtime Name libm See archLSB libc See archLSB proginterp See archLSB These libraries will be in an implementation-defined directory which the dynamic linker shall search by default. _________________________________________________________ 3.2. LSB Implementation Conformance A conforming implementation shall satisfy the following requirements: * The implementation shall implement fully the architecture described in the hardware manual for the target processor architecture. * The implementation shall be capable of executing compiled applications having the format and using the system interfaces described in this document. * The implementation shall provide libraries containing the interfaces specified by this document, and shall provide a dynamic linking mechanism that allows these interfaces to be attached to applications at runtime. All the interfaces shall behave as specified in this document. * The map of virtual memory provided by the implementation shall conform to the requirements of this document. * The implementation's low-level behavior with respect to function call linkage, system traps, signals, and other such activities shall conform to the formats described in this document. * The implementation shall provide all of the mandatory interfaces in their entirety. * The implementation may provide one or more of the optional interfaces. Each optional interface that is provided shall be provided in its entirety. The product documentation shall state which optional interfaces are provided. * The implementation shall provide all files and utilities specified as part of this document in the format defined here and in other referenced documents. All commands and utilities shall behave as required by this document. The implementation shall also provide all mandatory components of an application's runtime environment that are included or referenced in this document. * The implementation, when provided with standard data formats and values at a named interface, shall provide the behavior defined for those values and data formats at that interface. However, a conforming implementation may consist of components which are separately packaged and/or sold. For example, a vendor of a conforming implementation might sell the hardware, operating system, and windowing system as separately packaged items. * The implementation may provide additional interfaces with different names. It may also provide additional behavior corresponding to data values outside the standard ranges, for standard named interfaces. _________________________________________________________ 3.3. LSB Application Conformance A conforming application shall satisfy the following requirements: * Its executable files are either shell scripts or object files in the format defined for the Object File Format system interface. * Its object files participate in dynamic linking as defined in the Program Loading and Linking System interface. * It employs only the instructions, traps, and other low-level facilities defined in the Low-Level System interface as being for use by applications. * If it requires any optional interface defined in this document in order to be installed or to execute successfully, the requirement for that optional interface is stated in the application's documentation. * It does not use any interface or data format that is not required to be provided by a conforming implementation, unless: + If such an interface or data format is supplied by another application through direct invocation of that application during execution, that application is in turn an LSB conforming application. + The use of that interface or data format, as well as its source, is identified in the documentation of the application. * It shall not use any values for a named interface that are reserved for vendor extensions. A strictly conforming application does not require or use any interface, facility, or implementation-defined extension that is not defined in this document in order to be installed or to execute successfully. _________________________________________________________ Chapter 4. Definitions For the purposes of this document, the following definitions, as specified in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2, 2001, 4th Edition, apply: can be able to; there is a possibility of; it is possible to cannot be unable to; there is no possibilty of; it is not possible to may is permitted; is allowed; is permissible need not it is not required that; no...is required shall is to; is required to; it is required that; has to; only...is permitted; it is necessary shall not is not allowed [permitted] [acceptable] [permissible]; is required to be not; is required that...be not; is not to be should it is recommended that; ought to should not it is not recommended that; ought not to _________________________________________________________ Chapter 5. Terminology For the purposes of this document, the following terms apply: archLSB The architectural part of the LSB Specification which describes the specific parts of the interface that are platform specific. The archLSB is complementary to the gLSB. Binary Standard The total set of interfaces that are available to be used in the compiled binary code of a conforming application. gLSB The common part of the LSB Specification that describes those parts of the interface that remain constant across all hardware implementations of the LSB. implementation-defined Describes a value or behavior that is not defined by this document but is selected by an implementor. The value or behavior may vary among implementations that conform to this document. An application should not rely on the existence of the value or behavior. An application that relies on such a value or behavior cannot be assured to be portable across conforming implementations. The implementor shall document such a value or behavior so that it can be used correctly by an application. Shell Script A file that is read by an interpreter (e.g., awk). The first line of the shell script includes a reference to its interpreter binary. Source Standard The set of interfaces that are available to be used in the source code of a conforming application. undefined Describes the nature of a value or behavior not defined by this document which results from use of an invalid program construct or invalid data input. The value or behavior may vary among implementations that conform to this document. An application should not rely on the existence or validity of the value or behavior. An application that relies on any particular value or behavior cannot be assured to be portable across conforming implementations. unspecified Describes the nature of a value or behavior not specified by this document which results from use of a valid program construct or valid data input. The value or behavior may vary among implementations that conform to this document. An application should not rely on the existence or validity of the value or behavior. An application that relies on any particular value or behavior cannot be assured to be portable across conforming implementations. Other terms and definitions used in this document shall have the same meaning as defined in Chapter 3 of the Base Definitions volume of ISO POSIX (2003). _________________________________________________________ Chapter 6. Documentation Conventions Throughout this document, the following typographic conventions are used: function() the name of a function command the name of a command or utility CONSTANT a constant value parameter a parameter variable a variable Throughout this specification, several tables of interfaces are presented. Each entry in these tables has the following format: name the name of the interface (symver) An optional symbol version identifier, if required. [refno] A reference number indexing the table of referenced specifications that follows this table. For example, forkpty(GLIBC_2.0) [1] refers to the interface named forkpty() with symbol version GLIBC_2.0 that is defined in the first of the listed references below the table. _________________________________________________________ Chapter 7. Relationship To ISO/IEC 9945 POSIX This specification includes many interfaces described in ISO POSIX (2003). Unless otherwise specified, such interfaces should behave exactly as described in that specification. Any conflict between the requirements described here and the ISO POSIX (2003) standard is unintentional, except as explicitly noted otherwise. Note: In addition to the differences noted inline in this specification, PDTR 24715 has extracted the differences between this specification and ISO POSIX (2003) into a single place. It is the long term plan of the LSB to converge with ISO/IEC 9945 POSIX. The LSB Specification Authority is responsible for deciding the meaning of conformance to normative referenced standards in the LSB context. Problem Reports regarding underlying or referenced standards in any other context will be referred to the relevant maintenance body for that standard.

Sections 4.1. Introduction As described in System V ABI, an ELF object file contains a number of sections. _________________________________________________________ 4.2. Sections Types The section header table is an array of Elf32_Shdr or Elf64_Shdr structures as described in System V ABI. The sh_type member shall be either a value from Table 4-1, drawn from the System V ABI, or one of the additional values specified in Table 4-2. A section header's sh_type member specifies the sections's semantics. _________________________________________________________ 4.2.1. ELF Section Types The following section types are defined in the System V ABI and the System V ABI Update. Table 4-1. ELF Section Types Name Value Description SHT_DYNAMIC 0x6 The section holds information for dynamic linking. Currently, an object file shall have only one dynamic section, but this restriction may be relaxed in the future. See `Dynamic Section' in Chapter 5 for details. SHT_DYNSYM 0xb This section holds a minimal set of symbols adequate for dynamic linking. See also SHT_SYMTAB. Currently, an object file may have either a section of SHT_SYMTAB type or a section of SHT_DYNSYM type, but not both. This restriction may be relaxed in the future. SHT_FINI_ARRAY 0xf This section contains an array of pointers to termination functions, as described in `Initialization and Termination Functions' in Chapter 5. Each pointer in the array is taken as a parameterless procedure with a void return. SHT_HASH 0x5 The section holds a symbol hash table. Currently, an object file shall have only one hash table, but this restriction may be relaxed in the future. See `Hash Table' in the Chapter 5 for details. SHT_HIPROC 0x7fffffff Values in this inclusive range are reserved for processor-specific semantics. SHT_HIUSER 0xffffffff This value specifies the upper bound of the range of indexes reserved for application programs. Section types between SHT_LOUSER and SHT_HIUSER can be used by the application, without conflicting with current or future system-defined section types. SHT_INIT_ARRAY 0xe This section contains an array of pointers to initialization functions, as described in `Initialization and Termination Functions' in Chapter 5. Each pointer in the array is taken as a parameterless procedure with a void return. SHT_LOPROC 0x70000000 Values in this inclusive range are reserved for processor-specific semantics. SHT_LOUSER 0x80000000 This value specifies the lower bound of the range of indexes reserved for application programs. SHT_NOBITS 0x8 A section of this type occupies no space in the file but otherwise resembles SHT_PROGBITS. Although this section contains no bytes, the sh_offset member contains the conceptual file offset. SHT_NOTE 0x7 The section holds information that marks the file in some way. See `Note Section' in Chapter 5 for details. SHT_NULL 0x0 This value marks the section header as inactive; it does not have an associated section. Other members of the section header have undefined values. SHT_PREINIT_ARRAY 0x10 This section contains an array of pointers to functions that are invoked before all other initialization functions, as described in `Initialization and Termination Functions' in Chapter 5. Each pointer in the array is taken as a parameterless proceure with a void return. SHT_PROGBITS 0x1 The section holds information defined by the program, whose format and meaning are determined solely by the program. SHT_REL 0x9 The section holds relocation entries without explicit addends, such as type Elf32_Rel for the 32-bit class of object files or type Elf64_Rel for the 64-bit class of object files. An object file may have multiple relocation sections. See "Relocation" SHT_RELA 0x4 The section holds relocation entries with explicit addends, such as type Elf32_Rela for the 32-bit class of object files or type Elf64_Rela for the 64-bit class of object files. An object file may have multiple relocation sections. `Relocation' b SHT_SHLIB 0xa This section type is reserved but has unspecified semantics. SHT_STRTAB 0x3 The section holds a string table. An object file may have multiple string table sections. See `String Table' below for details. SHT_SYMTAB 0x2 This section holds a symbol table. Currently, an object file may have either a section of SHT_SYMTAB type or a section of SHT_DYNSYM type, but not both. This restriction may be relaxed in the future. Typically, SHT_SYMTAB provides symbols for link editing, though it may also be used for dynamic linking. As a complete symbol table, it may contain many symbols unnecessary for dynamic linking. _________________________________________________________ 4.2.2. Additional Section Types The following additional section types are defined here. Table 4-2. Additional Section Types Name Value Description SHT_GNU_verdef 0x6ffffffd This section contains the symbol versions that are provided. SHT_GNU_verneed 0x6ffffffe This section contains the symbol versions that are required. SHT_GNU_versym 0x6fffffff This section contains the Symbol Version Table. _________________________________________________________ Chapter 5. Special Sections 5.1. Special Sections Various sections hold program and control information. Sections in the lists below are used by the system and have the indicated types and attributes. _________________________________________________________ 5.1.1.

If the file has a loadable segment that includes the symbol table, the section's attributes will include the SHF_ALLOC bit; otherwise, that bit will be off. .tbss This section holds uninitialized thread-local data that contribute to the program's memory image. By definition, the system initializes the data with zeros when the data is instantiated for each new execution flow. The section occupies no file space, as indicated by the section type, SHT_NOBITS. Implementations need not support thread-local storage. .tdata This section holds initialized thread-local data that contributes to the program's memory image. A copy of its contents is instantiated by the system for each new execution flow. Implementations need not support thread-local storage. .text This section holds the `text,' or executable instructions, of a program. _________________________________________________________ 5.1.2.

DWARF Extensions In addition to the Call Frame Instructions defined in section 6.4.2 of DWARF Debugging Information Format, the following Call Frame Instructions may also be used. Table 7-1. Additional DWARF Call Frame Instructions Name Value Meaning DW_CFA_expression 0x10 The DW_CFA_expression instruction takes two operands: an unsigned LEB128 value representing a register number, and a DW_FORM_block value representing a DWARF expression. The required action is to establish the DWARF expression as the means by which the address in which the given register contents are found may be computed. The value of the CFA is pushed on the DWARF evaluation stack prior to execution of the DWARF expression. The DW_OP_call2, DW_OP_call4, DW_OP_call_ref and DW_OP_push_object_address DWARF operators (see Section 2.4.1 of DWARF Debugging Information Format) cannot be used in such a DWARF expression. DW_CFA_offset_extended_sf 0x11 The DW_CFA_offset_extended_sf instruction takes two operands: an unsigned LEB128 value representing a register number and a signed LEB128 factored offset. This instruction is identical to DW_CFA_offset_extended except that the second operand is signed. DW_CFA_def_cfa_sf 0x12 The DW_CFA_def_cfa_sf instruction takes two operands: an unsigned LEB128 value representing a register number and a signed LEB128 factored offset. This instruction is identical to DW_CFA_def_cfa except that the second operand is signed and factored. DW_CFA_def_cfa_offset_sf 0x13 The DW_CFA_def_cfa_offset_sf instruction takes a signed LEB128 operand representing a factored offset. This instruction is identical to DW_CFA_def_cfa_offset except that the operand is signed and factored. DW_CFA_GNU_args_size 0x2e The DW_CFA_def_cfa_offset_sf instruction takes an unsigned LEB128 operand representing an argument size. DW_CFA_GNU_negative_offset_extended 0x2f The DW_CFA_def_cfa_sf instruction takes two operands: an unsigned LEB128 value representing a register number and an unsigned LEB128 which represents the magnitude of the offset. This instruction is identical to DW_CFA_offset_extended_sf except that the operand is subtracted to produce the offset. This instructions is obsoleted by DW_CFA_offset_extended_sf. _________________________________________________________ Chapter 8. EH Frame This chapter will contain a formal description of the contents of the .eh_frame_hdr section. _________________________________________________________ Chapter 9. EH Frame Header 9.1. Introduction The .eh_frame_hdr section contains additional information about the .eh_frame section. A pointer to the start of the .eh_frame data, and optionally, a binary search table of pointers to the .eh_frame records are found in this section. Data in this section is encoded according to the DWARF Exception Header Encoding described below. Table 9-1. .eh_frame_hdr Section Format Encoding Field unsigned byte version unsigned byte eh_frame_ptr_enc unsigned byte fde_count_enc unsigned byte table_enc encoded eh_frame_ptr encoded fde_count binary search table version Version of the .eh_frame_hdr format.

Symbol Versioning 10.1. Introduction This chapter describes the Symbol Versioning mechanism. All ELF objects may provide or depend on versioned symbols. Symbol Versioning is implemented by 3 section types: SHT_GNU_versym, SHT_GNU_verdef, and SHT_GNU_verneed. The prefix Elfxx in the following descriptions and code fragments stands for either "Elf32" or "Elf64", depending on the architecture. Versions are described by strings. The structures that are used for symbol versions also contain a member that holds the ELF hashing values of the strings. This allows for more efficient processing. _________________________________________________________ 10.2. Symbol Version Table The special section .gnu.version which has a section type of SHT_GNU_versym shall contain the Symbol Version Table. This section shall have the same number of entries as the Dynamic Symbol Table in the .dynsym section. The .gnu.version section shall contain an array of elements of type Elfxx_Half. Each entry specifies the version defined for or required by the corresponding symbol in the Dynamic Symbol Table. The values in the Symbol Version Table are specific to the object in which they are located. These values are identifiers that are provided by the the vna_other member of the Elfxx_Vernaux structure or the vd_ndx member of the Elfxx_Verdef structure. The values 0 and 1 are reserved. 0 The symbol is local, not available outside the object. 1 The symbol is defined in this object and is globally available. All other values are used to identify version strings located in one of the other Symbol Version sections. The value itself is not the version associated with the symbol. The string identified by the value defines the version of the symbol. _________________________________________________________ 10.3. Version Definitions Symbol definitions are contained in the special section .gnu.version_d which has a section type of SHT_GNU_verdef. The number of entries in this section is contained in the DT_VERDEFNUM entry of the Dynamic Section. The sh_link member of the section header points to the section that contains the strings referenced by this section. The special section .gnu.version_d which has a section type of SHT_GNU_verdef shall contain symbol version definitions. The number of entries in this section shall be contained in the DT_VERDEFNUM entry of the Dynamic Section .dynamic. The sh_link member of the section header (see figure 4-8 in the System V ABI) shall point to the section that contains the strings referenced by this section. The section shall contain an array of Elfxx_Verdef structures, as described in Figure 10-1, optionally followed by an array of Elfxx_Verdaux structures, as defined in Figure 10-2. typedef struct { Elfxx_Half vd_version; Elfxx_Half vd_flags; Elfxx_Half vd_ndx; Elfxx_Half vd_cnt; Elfxx_Word vd_hash; Elfxx_Word vd_aux; Elfxx_Word vd_next; } Elfxx_Verdef; Figure 10-1. Version Definition Entries vd_version Version revision. This field shall be set to 1. vd_flags Version information flag bitmask. vd_ndx Version index numeric value referencing the SHT_GNU_versym section. vd_cnt Number of associated verdaux array entries. vd_hash Version name hash value (ELF hash function). vd_aux Offset in bytes to a corresponding entry in an array of Elfxx_Verdaux structures as defined in Figure 10-2 vd_next Offset to the next verdef entry, in bytes. typedef struct { Elfxx_Word vda_name; Elfxx_Word vda_next; } Elfxx_Verdaux; Figure 10-2. Version Definition Auxiliary Entries vda_name Offset to the version or dependency name string in the section header, in bytes. vda_next Offset to the next verdaux entry, in bytes. _________________________________________________________ 10.4. Version Requirements The special section .gnu.version_r which has a section type of SHT_GNU_verneed shall contain required symbol version definitions. The number of entries in this section shall be contained in the DT_VERNEEDNUM entry of the Dynamic Section .dynamic. The sh_link member of the section header (see figure 4-8 in System V ABI) shall point to the section that contains the strings referenced by this section. The section shall contain an array of Elfxx_Verneed structures, as described in Figure 10-3, optionally followed by an array of Elfxx_Vernaux structures, as defined in Figure 10-4. typedef struct { Elfxx_Half vn_version; Elfxx_Half vn_cnt; Elfxx_Word vn_file; Elfxx_Word vn_aux; Elfxx_Word vn_next; } Elfxx_Verneed; Figure 10-3. Version Needed Entries vn_version Version of structure. This value is currently set to 1, and will be reset if the versioning implementation is incompatibly altered. vn_cnt Number of associated verneed array entries. vn_file Offset to the file name string in the section header, in bytes. vn_aux Offset to a corresponding entry in the vernaux array, in bytes. vn_next Offset to the next verneed entry, in bytes. typedef struct { Elfxx_Word vna_hash; Elfxx_Half vna_flags; Elfxx_Half vna_other; Elfxx_Word vna_name; Elfxx_Word vna_next; } Elfxx_Vernaux; Figure 10-4. Version Needed Auxiliary Entries vna_hash Dependency name hash value (ELF hash function). vna_flags Dependency information flag bitmask. vna_other Object file version identifier used in the .gnu.version symbol version array. Bit number 15 controls whether or not the object is hidden; if this bit is set, the object cannot be used and the static linker will ignore the symbol's presence in the object. vna_name Offset to the dependency name string in the section header, in bytes. vna_next Offset to the next vernaux entry, in bytes. _________________________________________________________ 10.5. Startup Sequence When loading a sharable object the system shall analyze version definition data from the loaded object to assure that it meets the version requirements of the calling object. This step is referred to as definition testing. The dynamic loader shall retrieve the entries in the caller's Elfxx_Verneed array and attempt to find matching definition information in the loaded Elfxx_Verdef table. Each object and dependency shall be tested in turn. If a symbol definition is missing and the vna_flags bit for VER_FLG_WEAK is not set, the loader shall return an error and exit. If the vna_flags bit for VER_FLG_WEAK is set in the Elfxx_Vernaux entry, and the loader shall issue a warning and continue operation. When the versions referenced by undefined symbols in the loaded object are found, version availability is certified. The test completes without error and the object shall be made available. _________________________________________________________ 10.6. Symbol Resolution When symbol versioning is used in an object, relocations extend definition testing beyond the simple match of symbol name strings: the version of the reference shall also equal the name of the definition. The same index that is used in the symbol table can be referenced in the SHT_GNU_versym section, and the value of this index is then used to acquire name data. The corresponding requirement string is retrieved from the Elfxx_Verneed array, and likewise, the corresponding definition string from the Elfxx_Verdef table. If the high order bit (bit number 15) of the version symbolis set, the object cannot be used and the static linker shall ignore the symbol's presence in the object. When an object with a reference and an object with the definition are being linked, the following rules shall govern the result: * The object with the reference and the object with the definitions both use versioning. All described matching is processed in this case. A fatal error shall be triggered when no matching definition can be found in the object whose name is the one referenced by the vn_name element in the Elfxx_Verneed entry. * The object with the reference does not use versioning, while the object with the definitions does. In this instance, only the definitions with index numbers 1 and 2 will be used in the reference match, the same identified by the static linker as the base definition. In cases where the static linker was not used, such as in calls to dlopen(), a version that does not have the base definition index shall be acceptable if it is the only version for which the symbol is defined. * The object with the reference uses versioning, but the object with the definitions specifies none. A matching symbol shall be accepted in this case. A fatal error shall be triggered if a corruption in the required symbols list obscures an outdated object file and causes a match on the object filename in the Elfxx_Verneed entry. * Neither the object with the reference nor the object with the definitions use versioning. The behavior in this instance shall default to pre-existing symbol rules. _________________________________________________________ Chapter 11. ABI note tag Every executable shall contain a section named .note.ABI-tag of type SHT_NOTE. This section is structured as a note section as documented in the ELF spec. The section shall contain at least the following entry. The name field (namesz/name) contains the string "GNU". The type field shall be 1. The descsz field shall be at least 16, and the first 16 bytes of the desc field shall be as follows. The first 32-bit word of the desc field shall be 0 (this signifies a Linux executable). The second, third, and fourth 32-bit words of the desc field contain the earliest compatible kernel version. For example, if the 3 words are 2, 2, and 5, this signifies a 2.2.5 kernel. III. Dynamic Linking Table of Contents 12. Program Loading and Dynamic Linking 13. Program Header 14. Dynamic Entries _________________________________________________________ Chapter 12. Program Loading and Dynamic Linking LSB-conforming implementations shall support the object file information and system actions that create running programs as specified in the System V ABI and System V ABI Update and as supplemented by this document and an architecture-specific LSB specification. Any shared object that is loaded shall contain sufficient DT_NEEDED records to satisfy the symbols on the shared library. _________________________________________________________ Chapter 13. Program Header In addition to the Segment Types defined in the System V ABI and System V ABI Update the following Segment Types shall also be supported. Table 13-1. Linux Segment Types Name Value PT_GNU_EH_FRAME 0x6474e550 PT_GNU_STACK 0x6474e551 PT_GNU_EH_FRAME The array element specifies the location and size of the exception handling information as defined by the .eh_frame_hdr section. PT_GNU_STACK The p_flags member specifies the permissions on the segment containing the stack and is used to indicate wether the stack should be executable. The absense of this header indicates that the stack will be executable. _________________________________________________________ Chapter 14. Dynamic Entries 14.1. Introduction As described in System V ABI, if an object file participates in dynamic linking, its program header table shall have an element of type PT_DYNAMIC. This `segment' contains the .dynamic section. A special symbol, _DYNAMIC, labels the section, which contains an array of the following structures. typedef struct { Elf32_Sword d_tag; union { Elf32_Word d_val; Elf32_Addr d_ptr; } d_un; } Elf32_Dyn; extern Elf32_Dyn _DYNAMIC[]; typedef struct { Elf64_Sxword d_tag; union { Elf64_Xword d_val; Elf64_Addr d_ptr; } d_un; } Elf64_Dyn; extern Elf64_Dyn _DYNAMIC[]; Figure 14-1.

Data Definitions for libc This section defines global identifiers and their values that are associated with interfaces contained in libc. These definitions are organized into groups that correspond to system headers. This convention is used as a convenience for the reader, and does not imply the existence of these headers, or their content. These definitions are intended to supplement those provided in the referenced underlying specifications. This specification uses ISO/IEC 9899 C Language as the reference programming language, and data definitions are specified in ISO C format. The C language is used here as a convenient notation. Using a C language description of these data objects does not preclude their use by other programming languages. _________________________________________________________ 1.4.1. ctype.h enum { _ISupper, _ISlower, _ISalpha, _ISdigit, _ISxdigit, _ISspace, _ISprint , _ISgraph, _ISblank, _IScntrl, _ISpunct, _ISalnum } ; _________________________________________________________ 1.4.2. dirent.h typedef struct __dirstream DIR; struct dirent { long int d_ino; off_t d_off; unsigned short d_reclen; unsigned char d_type; char d_name[256]; } ; struct dirent64 { uint64_t d_ino; int64_t d_off; unsigned short d_reclen; unsigned char d_type; char d_name[256]; } ; _________________________________________________________ 1.4.3. errno.h ISO POSIX (2003) requires that each error value shall be unique, with permission for EAGAIN and EWOULDBLOCK possibly having the same value.

If delta is negative, the clock is slowed down by incrementing it more slowly than normal until the correction is complete. If delta is positive, a larger increment than normal is used. The skew used to perform the correction is generally a fraction of one percent. Thus, the time is always a monotonically increasing function. A time correction from an earlier call to adjtime() may not be finished when adjtime() is called again. If olddelta is non-NULL, the structure pointed to will contain, upon return, the number of microseconds still to be corrected from the earlier call. adjtime() may be used by time servers that synchronize the clocks of computers in a local area network. Such time servers would slow down the clocks of some machines and speed up the clocks of others to bring them to the average network time. The adjtime() is restricted to the super-user. Return Value On success, 0 is returned. On error, -1 is returned and the global variable errno is set appropriately. Errors EFAULT An argument points outside the process's allocated address space.

The codeset argument shall be a valid codeset name which can be used tor the iconv_open function, or a null pointer. If the codeset argument is the null pointer, then function returns the currently selected codeset for the domain with the name domainname. It shall return a null pointer if no codeset has yet been selected Each successive call to bind_textdomain_codeset() function overrrides the settings made by the preceding call with the same domainname. The bind_textdomain_codeset() function shall return a pointer to a string containing the name of the selected codeset. The string shall be allocated internally in the function and shall not be changed or freed by the user. The bind_textdomain_codeset() function returns a pointer to a string containing the name of the selected codeset. The string is allocated internally in the function and shall not be changed by the user. Parameters domainname The domainname argument is applied to the currently active LC_MESSAGE locale. It is equivalent in syntax and meaning to the domainname argument to textdomain, except that the selection of the domain is valid only for the duration of the call. codeset The name of the output codeset for the selected domain, or NULL to select the current codeset. If domainname is the null pointer, or is an empty string, bind_textdomain_codeset() shall fail, but need not set errno. Return Value Returns the currently selected codeset name. It returns a null pointer if no codeset has yet been selected. Errors ENOMEM Insufficient memory available to allocate return value. See Also gettext, dgettext, ngettext, dngettext, dcgettext, dcngettext, textdomain, bindtextdomain bindresvport Name bindresvport -- bind socket to privileged IP port Synopsis #include #include int bindresvport(int sd, struct sockaddr_in * sin); Description If the process has appropriate privilege, the bindresvport() function shall bind a socket to a privileged IP port.

EPFNOSUPPORT Address of sin did not match address family of sd. bindtextdomain Name bindtextdomain -- specify the location of a message catalog Synopsis #include char * bindtextdomain(const char * domainname, const char * dirname); Description The bindtextdomain() shall set the the base directory of the hierarchy containing message catalogs for a given message domain. The bindtextdomain() function specifies that the domainname message catalog can be found in the dirname directory hierarchy, rather than in the system default locale data base. If dirname is not NULL, the base directory for message catalogs belonging to domain domainname shall be set to dirname. If dirname is NULL, the base directory for message catalogs shall not be altered. The function shall make copies of the argument strings as needed. dirname can be an absolute or relative pathname. Note: Applications that wish to use chdir() should always use absolute pathnames to avoid misadvertently selecting the wrong or non-existant directory. If domainname is the null pointer, or is an empty string, bindtextdomain() shall fail, but need not set errno. The bindtextdomain() function shall return a pointer to a string containing the name of the selected directory. The string shall be allocated internally in the function and shall not be changed or freed by the user. Return Value On success, bindtextdomain() shall return a pointer to a string containing the directory pathname currently bound to the domain. On failure, a NULL pointer is returned, and the global variable errno may be set to indicate the error. Errors ENOMEM Insufficient memory was available.

The effects of the function on the terminal as described below do not become effective, nor are all errors detected, until the tcsetattr() function is called. Certain values for baud rates set in termios and passed to tcsetattr() have special meanings. Getting and Setting the Baud Rate Input and output baud rates are found in the termios structure. The unsigned integer speed_t is typdef'd in the include file termios.h. The value of the integer corresponds directly to the baud rate being represented; however, the following symbolic values are defined. #define B0 0 #define B50 50 #define B75 75 #define B110 110 #define B134 134 #define B150 150 #define B200 200 #define B300 300 #define B600 600 #define B1200 1200 #define B1800 1800 #define B2400 2400 #define B4800 4800 #define B9600 9600 #define B19200 19200 #define B38400 38400 #ifndef _POSIX_SOURCE #define EXTA 19200 #define EXTB 38400 #endif /*_POSIX_SOURCE */ cfsetspeed() sets both the input and output baud rates in the termios structure referenced by t to speed. Return Value On success, 0 is returned. On error, -1 is returned and the global variable errno is set appropriately. Errors EINVAL Invalid speed argument daemon Name daemon -- run in the background Synopsis #include int daemon(int nochdir, int noclose); Description The daemon() function shall create a new process, detached from the controlling terminal. If successful, the calling process shall exit and the new process shall continue to execute the application in the background. If nochdir evaluates to true, the current directory shall not be changed. Otherwise, daemon() shall change the current working directory to the root (`/'). If noclose evaluates to true the standard input, standard output, and standard error file descriptors shall not be altered. Otherwise, daemon() shall close the standard input, standard output and standard error file descriptors and reopen them attached to /dev/null. Return Value On error, -1 is returned, and the global variable errno is set to any of the errors specified for the library functions fork() and setsid(). dcgettext Name dcgettext -- perform domain and category specific lookup in message catalog Synopsis #include #include char * dcgettext(const char * domainname, const char * msgid, int category); Description The dcgettext() function is a domain specified version of gettext().

See Also gettext, dgettext, ngettext, dngettext, dcngettext, textdomain, bindtextdomain, bind_textdomain_codeset dcngettext Name dcngettext -- perform domain and category specific lookup in message catalog with plural Synopsis #include #include char * dcngettext(const char * domainname, const char * msgid1, const char * msgid2, unsigned long int n, int category); Description The dcngettext() function is a domain specific version of gettext, capable of returning either a singular or plural form of the message. The dcngettext() function shall lookup the translation in the current locale of the message identified by msgid1 in the domain specified by domainname and in the locale category specified by category. If domainname is NULL, the current default domain shall be used. The msgid1 argument shall be a NULL-terminated string to be matched in the catalogue. category shall specify the locale category to be used for retrieving message strings. The category parameter shall be one of LC_CTYPE, LC_COLLATE, LC_MESSAGES, LC_MONETARY, LC_NUMERIC, or LC_TIME. The default domain shall not be changed by a call to dcgettext(). If n is 1 then the singular version of the message is returned, otherwise one of the plural forms is returned, depending on the value of n and the current locale settings. Return Value If a translation corresponding to the value of n was found in one of the specified catalogs for msgid1, it shall be converted to the current locale's codeset and returned.

Parameters domainname dgettext() applies domainname to the currently active LC_MESSAGE locale. This usage is equivalent in syntax and meaning to the textdomain() function's application of domainname, except that the selection of the domain in dgettext() is valid only for the duration of the call. msgid a NULL-terminated string to be matched in the catalogue with respect to a specific domain and the current locale. Return Value On success of a msgid query, the translated NULL-terminated string is returned. On error, the original msgid is returned. The length of the string returned is undetermined until dgettext() is called. Errors dgettext() will not modify the errno global variable. See Also gettext, dgettext, ngettext, dngettext, dcgettext, dcngettext, textdomain, bindtextdomain, bind_textdomain_codeset dngettext Name dngettext -- perform lookup in message catalog for the current locale Synopsis #include char * dngettext(const char * domainname, const char * msgid1, const char * msgid2, unsigned long int n); Description dngettext() shall be equivalent to a call to dcngettext(domainname, msgid1, msgid2, n, LC_MESSAGES) See dgettext() for more information.

If fmt is non-NULL, it shall be used as a format string for the printf() family of functions, and err() shall write the formatted message, a colon character, and a space. Finally, the error message string affiliated with the current value of the global variable errno shall be written, followed by a newline character. The err() function shall not return, the program shall terminate with the exit value of eval. See Also error(), errx() Return Value None. Errors None. error Name error -- print error message Synopsis void error(int exitstatus, int errnum, const char * format, ...); Description error() shall print a message to standard error. error() shall build the message from the following elements in their specified order: 1. the program name. If the application has provided a function named error_print_progname(), error() shall call this to supply the program name; otherwise, error() uses the content of the global variable program_name. 2. the colon and space characters, then the result of using the printf-style format and the optional arguments. 3. if errnum is nonzero, error() shall add the colon and space characters, then the result of strerror(errnum). 4. a newline. If exitstatus is nonzero, error() shall call exit(exitstatus). See Also err(), errx() errx Name errx -- display formatted error message and exit Synopsis #include void errx(int eval, const char * fmt, ...); Description The errx() function shall display a formatted error message on the standard error stream. The last component of the program name, a colon character, and a space shall be output. If fmt is non-NULL, it shall be used as the format string for the printf() family of functions, and the formatted error message, a colon character, and a space shall be output. The output shall be followed by a newline character. errx() does not return, but shall exit with the value of eval. Return Value None. Errors None. See Also error(), err() fcntl Name fcntl -- file control Description fcntl() is as specified in ISO POSIX (2003), but with differences as listed below. Implementation may set O_LARGEFILE According to ISO POSIX (2003), only an application sets fcntl() flags, for example O_LARGEFILE. However, this specification also allows an implementation to set the O_LARGEFILE flag in the case where the programming environment is one of _POSIX_V6_ILP32_OFFBIG, _POSIX_V6_LP64_OFF64, _POSIX_V6_LPBIG_OFFBIG. See getconf and c99 in ISO POSIX (2003) for a description of these environments. Thus, calling fcntl() with the F_GETFL command may return O_LARGEFILE as well as flags explicitly set by the application in the case that both the implementation and the application support an off_t of at least 64 bits. fflush_unlocked Name fflush_unlocked -- non thread safe fflush Description fflush_unlocked() is the same as fflush() except that it need not be thread safe. That is, it may only be invoked in the ways which are legal for getc_unlocked(). fgetwc_unlocked Name fgetwc_unlocked -- non thread safe fgetwc Description fgetwc_unlocked() is the same as fgetwc() except that it need not be thread safe. That is, it may only be invoked in the ways which are legal for getc_unlocked(). flock Name flock -- apply or remove an advisory lock on an open file Synopsis int flock(int fd, int operation); Description flock() applies or removes an advisory lock on the open file fd. Valid operation types are: LOCK_SH Shared lock. More than one process may hold a shared lock for a given file at a given time. LOCK_EX Exclusive lock. Only one process may hold an exclusive lock for a given file at a given time. LOCK_UN Unlock. LOCK_NB Don't block when locking. May be specified (by oring) along with one of the other operations. A single file may not simultaneously have both shared and exclusive locks. Return Value On success, 0 is returned. On error, -1 is returned and the global variable errno is set appropriately. Errors EWOULDBLOCK The file is locked and the LOCK_NB flag was selected. freelocale Name freelocale -- free a locale object Synopsis #include void freelocale(locale_t locale); Description The freelocale() function shall free the locale object locale, and release any resources associated with it. Return Value None. Errors None defined. See Also setlocale(), newlocale(), duplocale(), uselocale() fscanf Name fscanf -- convert formatted input Description The scanf() family of functions shall behave as described in ISO POSIX (2003), except as noted below. Differences The %s, %S and %[ conversion specifiers shall accept an option length modifier a, which shall cause a memory buffer to be allocated to hold the string converted. In such a case, the argument corresponding to the conversion specifier should be a reference to a pointer value that will receive a pointer to the allocated buffer. If there is insufficient memory to allocate a buffer, the function may set errno to ENOMEM and a conversion error results. Note: This directly conflicts with the ISO C (1999) usage of %a as a conversion specifier for hexadecimal float values. While this conversion specifier should be supported, a format specifier such as "%aseconds" will have a different meaning on an LSB conforming system. fwscanf Name fwscanf -- convert formatted input Description The scanf() family of functions shall behave as described in ISO POSIX (2003), except as noted below. Differences The %s, %S and %[ conversion specifiers shall accept an option length modifier a, which shall cause a memory buffer to be allocated to hold the string converted. In such a case, the argument corresponding to the conversion specifier should be a reference to a pointer value that will receive a pointer to the allocated buffer. If there is insufficient memory to allocate a buffer, the function may set errno to ENOMEM and a conversion error results. Note: This directly conflicts with the ISO C (1999) usage of %a as a conversion specifier for hexadecimal float values. While this conversion specifier should be supported, a format specifier such as "%aseconds" will have a different meaning on an LSB conforming system. getgrouplist Name getgrouplist -- get network group entry Synopsis #include int getgrouplist(const char * user, gid_t group, gid_t * groups, int * ngroups); Description The getgrouplist() function shall fill in the array groups with the supplementary groups for the user specified by user. On entry, ngroups shall refer to an integer containing the maximum number of gid_t members in the groups array. The group group shall also be included. On success, the value referred to by ngroups shall be updated to contain the number of gid_t objects copied. Return Value On success, if there was sufficient room to copy all the supplementatry group identifiers to the array identified by groups, getgrouplist() shall return the number of gid_t objects copied, and the value referenced by ngroups shall be updated. If there was not sufficient room to copy all the supplementary group identifiers, grouplist() shall return -1, and update the value referenced by ngroups to the number actually copied. If user does not refer to a valid user on the system, getgrouplist() shall return 0, and set the value referenced by ngroups to 0. Errors None defined. See Also getgroups() getloadavg Name getloadavg -- get system load averages Synopsis #include int getloadavg(double loadavg[], int nelem); Description getloadavg() returns the number of processes in the system run queue averaged over various periods of time. Up to nelem samples are retrieved and assigned to successive elements of loadavg[]. The system imposes a maximum of 3 samples, representing averages over the last 1, 5, and 15 minutes, respectively. getopt Name getopt -- parse command line options Synopsis #include int getopt(int argc, char * const argv[], const char * optstring); extern char *optarg; extern int optind, opterr, optopt; Description The getopt() function shall parse command line arguments as described in ISO POSIX (2003), with the following exceptions, where LSB and POSIX specifications vary. LSB systems shall implement the modified behaviors described below. Argument Ordering The getopt() function can process command line arguments referenced by argv in one of three ways: PERMUTE the order of arguments in argv is altered so that all options (and their arguments) are moved in front of all of the operands. This is the default behavior. Note: This behavior has undefined results if argv is not modifiable. This is to support historic behavior predating the use of const and ISO C (1999). The function prototype was aligned with ISO POSIX (2003) despite the fact that it modifies argv, and the library maintainers are unwilling to change this. REQUIRE_ORDER The arguments in argv are processed in exactly the order given, and option processing stops when the first non-option argument is reached, or when the element of argv is "--". This ordering can be enforced either by setting the environment variable POSIXLY_CORRECT, or by setting the first character of optstring to '+'. RETURN_IN_ORDER The order of arguments is not altered, and all arguments are processed. Non-option arguments (operands) are handled as if they were the argument to an option with the value 1 ('\001'). This ordering is selected by setting the first character of optstring to '-'; Option Characteristics LSB specifies that: * an element of argv that starts with "-" (and is not exactly "-" or "--") is an option element. * characters of an option element, aside from the initial "-", are option characters. POSIX specifies that: * applications using getopt() shall obey the following syntax guidelines: + option name is a single alphanumeric character from the portable character set + option is preceded by the '-' delimiter character + options without option-arguments should be accepted when grouped behind one '-' delimiter + each option and option-argument is a separate argument + option-arguments are not optional + all options should precede operands on the command line + the argument "--" is accepted as a delimiter indicating the end of options and the consideration of subsequent arguments, if any, as operands * historical implementations of getopt() support other characters as options as an allowed extension, but applications that use extensions are not maximally portable. * support for multi-byte option characters is only possible when such characters can be represented as type int. * applications that call any utility with a first operand starting with '-' should usually specify "--" to mark the end of the options. Standard utilities that do not support this guideline indicate that fact in the OPTIONS section of the utility description. Extensions LSB specifies that: * if a character is followed by two colons, the option takes an optional argument; if there is text in the current argv element, it is returned in optarg, otherwise optarg is set to 0. * if optstring contains W followed by a semi-colon (;), then -W foo is treated as the long option --foo. Note: See getopt_long() for a description of long options. * The first character of optstring shall modify the behavior of getopt() as follows: + if the first character is '+', then REQUIRE_ORDER processing shall be in effect (see above) + if the first character is '-', then RETURN_IN_ORDER processing shall be in effect (see above) + if the first character is ':', then getopt() shall return ':' instead of '?' to indicate a missing option argument, and shall not print any diagnostic message to stderr. POSIX specifies that: * the -W option is reserved for implementation extensions. Return Values LSB specifies the following additional getopt() return values: * '\001' is returned if RETURN_IN_ORDER argument ordering is in effect, and the next argument is an operand, not an option. The argument is available in optarg. Any other return value has the same meaning as for POSIX. POSIX specifies the following getopt() return values: * the next option character is returned, if found successfully. * ':' is returned if a parameter is missing for one of the options and the first character of optstring is ':'. * '?' is returned if an unknown option character not in optstring is encountered, or if getopt() detects a missing argument and the first character of optstring is not ':'. * -1 is returned for the end of the option list. Environment Variables LSB specifies that: * if the variable POSIXLY_CORRECT is set, option processing stops as soon as a non-option argument is encountered. * the variable _[PID]_GNU_nonoption_argv_flags_ (where [PID] is the process ID for the current process), contains a space separated list of arguments that should not be treated as arguments even though they appear to be so. Rationale: This was used by bash 2.0 to communicate to GNU libc which arguments resulted from wildcard expansion and so should not be considered as options. This behavior was removed in bash version 2.01, but the support remains in GNU libc. This behavior is DEPRECATED in this version of the LSB; future revisions of this specification may not include this requirement. getopt_long Name getopt_long -- parse command line options Synopsis #define _GNU_SOURCE #include int getopt_long(int argc, char * const argv[], const char * opstring, const struct option * longopts, int * longindex); Description getopt_long() works like getopt() except that it also accepts long options, started out by two dashes. Long option names may be abbreviated if the abbreviation is unique or is an exact match for some defined option. A long option may take a parameter, of the form --arg=param or --arg param. longopts is a pointer to the first element of an array of struct option declared in getopt.h as: struct option { const char *name; int has_arg; int *flag; int val; }; The fields in this structure have the following meaning: name The name of the long option. has_arg One of: no_argument (or 0) if the option does not take an argument, required_argument (or 1) if the option requires an argument, or optional_argument (or 2) if the option takes an optional argument. flag specifies how results are returned for a long option. If flag is NULL, then getopt_long() shall return val. (For example, the calling program may set val to the equivalent short option character.) Otherwise, getopt_long() returns 0, and flag shall point to a variable which shall be set to val if the option is found, but left unchanged if the option is not found. val The value to return, or to load into the variable pointed to by flag. Return Value getopt_long() returns the option character if a short option was found successfully, or ":" if there was a missing parameter for one of the options, or "?" for an unknown option character, or -1 for the end of the option list. For a long option, getopt_long() returns val if flag is NULL, and 0 otherwise. Error and -1 returns are the same as for getopt(), plus "?" for an ambiguous match or an extraneous parameter. getopt_long_only Name getopt_long_only -- parse command line options Synopsis #define _GNU_SOURCE #include int getopt_long_only(int argc, char * const argv[], const char * optstring, const struct option * longopts, int * longindex); Description getopt_long_only() is like getopt_long(), but "-" as well as "--" can indicate a long option. If an option that starts with "-" (not "--") doesn't match a long option, but does match a short option, it is parsed as a short option instead. Note: The getopt_long_only() function is intended only for supporting certain programs whose command line syntax was designed before the Utility Syntax Guidelines of ISO POSIX (2003) were developed. New programs should generally call getopt_long() instead, which provides the --option syntax for long options, which is preferred by GNU and consistent with ISO POSIX (2003). Return Value getopt_long_only() returns the option character if the option was found successfully, or ":" if there was a missing parameter for one of the options, or "?" for an unknown option character, or -1 for the end of the option list. getopt_long_only() also returns the option character when a short option is recognized. For a long option, they return val if flag is NULL, and 0 otherwise. Error and -1 returns are the same as for getopt(), plus "?" for an ambiguous match or an extraneous parameter. getsockopt Name getsockopt -- get socket options Synopsis #include #include int getsockopt(int socket, int level, int option_name, void * restrict option_value, socklen_t * restrict option_len); Description The getsockopt() function shall behave as specified in ISO POSIX (2003), with the following extensions. IP Protocol Level Options If the level parameter is IPPROTO_IP, the following values shall be supported for option_name (see RFC 791:Internet Protocol for further details): IP_OPTIONS Get the Internet Protocol options sent with every packet from this socket. The option_value shall point to a memory buffer in which the options shall be placed; on entry option_len shall point to an integer value indicating the maximum size of the memory buffer, in bytes. On successful return, the value referenced by option_len shall be updated to the size of data copied to the buffer. For IPv4, the maximum length of options is 40 bytes. IP_TTL Get the current unicast Internet Protocol Time To Live value used when sending packets with this socket. The option_value shall point to a buffer large enough to hold the time to live value (at least 1 byte), and option_len shall point to an integer value holding the maximum size of that buffer. On successful return, the value referenced by option_len shall be updated to contain the number of bytes copied into the buffer, which shall be no larger than the initial value, and option_value shall point to an integer containing the time to live value. IP_TOS Get the Internet Protocol type of service indicator used when sending packets with this socket. The option_value shall point to a buffer large enough to hold the type of service indicator (at least 1 byte), and option_len shall point to an integer value holding the maximum size of that buffer. On successful return, the value referenced by option_len shall be updated to contain the number of bytes copied into the buffer, which shall be no larger than the initial value, and option_value shall point to an integer containing the time to live value. gettext Name gettext -- Search message catalogs for a string Synopsis #include char * gettext(const char * msgid); Description The gettext() function shall search the currently selected message catalogs for a string identified by the string msgid. If a string is located, that string shall be returned. The gettext() function is equivalent to dcgettext(NULL, msgid, LC_MESSAGES). Return Value If a string is found in the currently selected message catalogs for msgid, then a pointer to that string shall be returned. Otherwise, a pointer to msgid shall be returned. Applications shall not modify the string returned by gettext(). Errors None. The gettext() function shall not modify errno. See Also dgettext, ngettext, dngettext, dcgettext, dcngettext, textdomain, bindtextdomain, bind_textdomain_codeset getutent Name getutent -- access user accounting database entries Synopsis #include struct utmp *getutent(void); Description The getutent() function shall read the next entry from the user accounting database. Return Value Upon successful completion, getutent() shall return a pointer to a utmp structure containing a copy of the requested entry in the user accounting database. Otherwise, a null pointer shall be returned. The return value may point to a static area which is overwritten by a subsequent call to getutent(). Errors None defined. getutent_r Name getutent_r -- access user accounting database entries Synopsis int getutent_r(struct utmp * buffer, struct utmp ** result); Description The getutent_r() function is a reentrant version of the getutent() function. On entry, buffer should point to a user supplied buffer to which the next entry in the database will be copied, and result should point to a location where the result will be stored. Return Value On success, getutent_r() shall return 0 and set the location referenced by result to a pointer to buffer. Otherwise, getutent_r() shall return -1 and set the location referenced by result to NULL. glob64 Name glob64 -- find pathnames matching a pattern (Large File Support) Synopsis #include int glob64(const char * pattern, int flags, int (*errfunc) (const char *, int), glob64_t * pglob); Description The glob64() function is a large-file version of the glob() defined in ISO POSIX (2003). It shall search for pathnames matching pattern according to the rules used by the shell, /bin/sh. No tilde expansion or parameter substitution is done; see wordexp(). The results of a glob64() call are stored in the structure pointed to by pglob, which is a glob64_t declared in glob.h with the following members: typedef struct { size_t gl_pathc; char **gl_pathv; size_t gl_offs; int gl_flags; void (*gl_closedir) (void *); struct dirent64 *(*gl_readdir64) (void *); void *(*gl_opendir) (const char *); int (*gl_lstat) (const char *, struct stat *); int (*gl_stat) (const char *, struct stat *); } glob64_t; Structure members with the same name as corresponding members of a glob_t as defined in ISO POSIX (2003) shall have the same purpose. Other members are defined as follows: gl_flags reserved for internal use gl_closedir pointer to a function capable of closing a directory opened by gl_opendir gl_readdir64 pointer to a function capable of reading entries in a large directory gl_opendir pointer to a function capable of opening a large directory gl_stat pointer to a function capable of returning file status for a large file gl_lstat pointer to a function capable of returning file status information for a large file or symbolic link A large file or large directory is one with a size which cannot be represented by a variable of type off_t. Return Value On success, 0 is returned. Other possible returns are: GLOB_NOSPACE out of memory GLOB_ABORTED read error GLOB_NOMATCH no match found globfree64 Name globfree64 -- free memory from glob64() (Large File Support) Synopsis #include void globfree64(glob64_t * pglob); Description globfree64() frees the dynamically allocated storage from an earlier call to glob64(). globfree64() is a 64-bit version of globfree(). initgroups Name initgroups -- initialize the supplementary group access list Synopsis #include #include int initgroups(const char * user, gid_t group); Description If the process has appropriate privilege, the initgroups() function shall initialize the Supplementary Group IDs for the current process by reading the group database and using all groups of which user is a member. The additional group group is also added to the list. Return Value On success, 0 is returned. On error, -1 is returned and the global variable errno is set appropriately. Errors EPERM The calling process does not have sufficient privileges. ENOMEM Insufficient memory to allocate group information structure. See Also setgroups() ioctl Name ioctl -- control device Synopsis #include int ioctl (int fildes , int request , ...); Description The ioctl() function shall manipulate the underlying device parameters of special files. fildes shall be an open file descriptor referring to a special file. The ioctl() function shall take three parameters; the type and value of the third parameter is dependent on the device and request. Conforming LSB applications shall not call ioctl() except in situations explicitly stated in this specification. Return Value On success, 0 is returned. An ioctl() may use the return value as an output parameter and return a non-negative value on success. On error, -1 is returned and the global variable errno is set appropriately. Errors EBADF fildes is not a valid descriptor. EFAULT The third parameter references an inaccessible memory area. ENOTTY fildes is not associated with a character special device. ENOTTY The specified request does not apply to the kind of object that fildes references. EINVAL request or the third parameter is not valid. Relationship to POSIX (Informative) It should be noted that ISO POSIX (2003) contains an interface named ioctl(). The LSB only defines behavior when fildes refers to a socket (see sockio) or terminal device (see ttyio), while ISO POSIX (2003) only defines behavior when fildes refers to a STREAMS device. An implementation may support both behaviors; the LSB does not require any STREAMS support. sockio Name sockio -- socket ioctl commands Synopsis #include #include #include int ioctl(int sockfd, int request, char * argp); Description Socket ioctl() commands are a subset of the ioctl() calls, which can perform a variety of functions on sockets. sockfd shall be an open file descriptor referring to a socket (see the socket() or accept() functions). Socket ioctl() commands apply to the underlying network interfaces, and affect the entire system, not just the file descriptor used to issue the ioctl(). The following values for request are accepted: SIOCGIFCONF (Deprecated) Get the interface configuration list for the system. Note: The SIOCGIFCONF interface is superceded by the if_nameindex() family of functions (see ISO POSIX (2003)). A future version of this specification may withdraw this value for request. argp shall point to a ifconf structure, as described in . Before calling, the caller shall set the ifc_ifcu.ifcu_req field to point to an array of ifreq structures, and set ifc_len to the size in bytes of this allocated array. Upon return, ifc_len will contain the size in bytes of the array which was actually used. If it is the same as the length upon calling, the caller should assume that the array was too small and try again with a larger array. On success, SIOCGIFCONF shall return a nonnegative value. Rationale: Historical UNIX systems disagree on the meaning of the return value. SIOCGIFFLAGS Get the interface flags for the indicated interface. argp shall point to a ifreq structure. Before calling, the caller should fill in the ifr_name field with the interface name, and upon return, the ifr_ifru.ifru_flags field is set with the interface flags. SIOCGIFADDR Get the interface address for the given interface. argp shall point to a ifreq structure. Before calling, the caller should fill in the ifr_name field with the interface name, and upon return, the ifr_ifru.ifru_addr field is set with the interface address. SIOCGIFBRDADDR Get the interface broadcast address for the given interface. argp shall point to a ifreq structure. Before calling, the caller should fill in the ifr_name field with the interface name, and upon return, the ifr_ifru.ifru_broadcast field is set with the interface broadcast address. SIOCGIFNETMASK Get the network mask for the given interface. argp shall point to a ifreq structure. Before calling, the caller should fill in the ifr_name field with the interface name, and upon return, the ifr_ifru.ifru_netmask field is set with the network mask. SIOCGIFMTU Get the Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) size for the given interface. argp shall point to a ifreq structure. Before calling, the caller should fill in the ifr_name field with the interface name, and upon return, the ifr_ifru.ifru_mtu field is set with the MTU. FIONREAD Get the amount of queued unread data in the receive buffer. argp shall point to an integer where the result is to be placed. Return Value On success, if request is SIOCGIFCONF, a non-negative integer shall be returned. If request is not SIOCGIFCONF, on success 0 is returned. On error, -1 is returned and the global variable errno is set appropriately. Errors EBADF sockfd is not a valid descriptor. EFAULT argp references an inaccessible memory area. ENOTTY The specified request does not apply to the kind of object that the descriptor sockfd references. EINVAL Either request or argp is invalid. ENOTCONN The operation is only defined on a connected socket, but the socket wasn't connected. ttyio Name ttyio -- tty ioctl commands Synopsis #include int ioctl(int fd, unsigned long request, int * argp); Description Tty ioctl commands are a subset of the ioctl() calls, which can perform a variety of functions on tty devices. fd shall be an open file descriptor referring to a terminal device. The following ioctl()s are provided: TIOCGWINSZ Get the size attributes of the tty. argp is a pointer to a winsize structure. Return Value On success, 0 is returned. On error, -1 is returned and the global variable errno is set appropriately. Errors EBADF fd is not a valid descriptor. EFAULT argp references an inaccessible memory area. EINVAL request and argp are not valid. kill Name kill -- send a signal Synopsis #include int kill(pid_t pid, int sig); Description kill() is as specified in the ISO POSIX (2003), but with differences as listed below. Process ID -1 doesn't affect calling process If pid is specified as -1, sig shall not be sent to the calling process. Other than this, the rules in the ISO POSIX (2003) apply. Rationale: This was a deliberate Linus decision after an unpopular experiment in including the calling process in the 2.5.1 kernel. See "What does it mean to signal everybody?", Linux Weekly News, 20 December 2001, http://lwn.net/2001/1220/kernel.php3 link Name link -- create a link to a file Synopsis #include int link(const char * path1, const char * path2); Description The link() function shall behave as specified in ISO POSIX (2003), except with differences as listed below. Need Not Follow Symlinks ISO POSIX (2003) specifies that pathname resolution shall follow symbolic links during pathname resolution unless the function is required to act on the symbolic link itself, or certain arguments direct that the function act on the symbolic link itself. The link() function in ISO POSIX (2003) contains no such requirement to operate on a symbolic link. However, a conforming LSB implementation need not follow a symbolic link for the path1 argument. mbsnrtowcs Name mbsnrtowcs -- convert a multibyte string to a wide character string Synopsis #include size_t mbsnrtowcs(wchar_t * dest, const char * * src, size_t nms, size_t len, mbstate_t * ps); Description mbsnrtowcs() is like mbsrtowcs(), except that the number of bytes to be converted, starting at src, is limited to nms. If dest is not a NULL pointer, mbsnrtowcs() converts at most nms bytes from the multibyte string src to a wide-character string starting at dest. At most, len wide characters are written to dest. The state ps is updated. The conversion is effectively performed by repeatedly calling: mbrtowc(dest, *src, n, ps) where n is some positive number, as long as this call succeeds, and then incrementing dest by one and src by the number of bytes consumed. The conversion can stop for three reasons: * An invalid multibyte sequence has been encountered. In this case src is left pointing to the invalid multibyte sequence, (size_t)(-1) is returned, and errno is set to EILSEQ. * The nms limit forces a stop, or len non-L'\0' wide characters have been stored at dest. In this case, src is left pointing to the next multibyte sequence to be converted, and the number of wide characters written to dest is returned. * The multibyte string has been completely converted, including the terminating '\0' (which has the side effect of bringing back ps to the initial state). In this case, src is set to NULL, and the number of wide characters written to dest, excluding the terminating L'\0' character, is returned. If dest is NULL, len is ignored, and the conversion proceeds as above, except that the converted wide characters are not written out to memory, and that no destination length limit exists. In both of the above cases, if ps is a NULL pointer, a static anonymous state only known to mbsnrtowcs() is used instead. The programmer shall ensure that there is room for at least len wide characters at dest. Return Value mbsnrtowcs() returns the number of wide characters that make up the converted part of the wide character string, not including the terminating null wide character. If an invalid multibyte sequence was encountered, (size_t)(-1) is returned, and the global variable errno is set to EILSEQ. Notes The behavior of mbsnrtowcs() depends on the LC_CTYPE category of the current locale. Passing NULL as ps is not multi-thread safe. memmem Name memmem -- locate bytes Synopsis #define _GNU_SOURCE #include void * memmem(const void * haystack, size_t haystacklen, const void * needle, size_t needlelen); Description memmem() finds the start of the first occurrence of the byte array referenced by needle of length needlelen in the memory area haystack of length haystacklen. Return Value memmem() returns a pointer to the beginning of the byte array, or NULL if the byte array is not found. Notes Earlier versions of the C library (prior to glibc 2.1) contained a memmem() with various problems, and application developers should treat this function with care. memrchr Name memrchr -- scan memory for a character Synopsis #include void * memrchr(const void * s, int c, size_t n); Description The memrchr() function shall locate the last occurence of c (converted to an unsigned char) in the initial n bytes (each interpreted as an unsigned char) of the object pointed to by s. Return Value The memrchr() shall return a pointer to the located byte, or a null pointer if the byte does not occur in the object. Errors No errors are defined. See Also memchr() newlocale Name newlocale -- allocate a locale object Synopsis #include locale_t newlocale(int category_mask, const char * locale, locale_t base); Description The newlocale() function shall initialize a locale object. If base is NULL, then newlocale() shall first allocate the object; otherwise it shall use the locale object referenced by base. The object shall be initialized for the locale named by locale, and for the categories selected in category_mask. The category_mask value is a bitwise inclusive OR of the required LC_name_MASK values, or the value LC_ALL_MASK. Return Value On success, the newlocale() function shall return the initialized locale object. Otherwise, it shall return NULL, and set errno to indicate the error. Errors The newlocale() function shall fail if: ENOMEM Insufficient memory. EINVAL An invalid category_mask was provided, or the locale was NULL. Application Usage (Informative) The only portable way to allocate a locale object is to call newlocale() with a NULL base. The allocated object may be reinitialized to a new locale by passing it back to newlocale(). The new object may be released by calling freelocale(). See Also setlocale(), freelocale(), duplocale(), uselocale() ngettext Name ngettext -- Search message catalogs for plural string Synopsis #include char * ngettext(const char * msgid1, const char * msgid2, unsigned long int n); Description The ngettext() function shall search the currently selected message catalogs for a string matching the singular string msgid1. If a string is located, and if n is 1, that string shall be returned. If n is not 1, a pluralized version (dependant on n) of the string shall be returned. The ngettext() function is equivalent to dcngettext(NULL, msgid1, msgid2, n, LC_MESSAGES)(). Return Value If a string is found in the currently selected message catalogs for msgid1, then if n is 1 a pointer to the located string shall be returned. If n is not 1, a pointer to an appropriately pluralized version of the string shall be returned. If no message could be found in the currently selected mesage catalogs, then if n is 1, a pointer to msgid1 shall be returned, otherwise a pointer to msgid2 shall be returned. Applications shall not modify the string returned by ngettext(). Errors None. The ngettext() function shall not modify errno. See Also gettext, dgettext, ngettext, dngettext, dcgettext, dcngettext, textdomain, bindtextdomain, bind_textdomain_codeset pmap_getport Name pmap_getport -- Find the port number assigned to a service registered with a portmapper. Synopsis #include u_short * pmap_getport(struct sockaddr_in * address, const u_long program, const u_long * version, u_int protocol); Description The pmap_getport() function shall return the port number assigned to a service registered with a RPC Binding service running on a given target system, using the protocol described in RFC 1833: Binding Protocols for ONC RPC Version 2. The pmap_getport() function shall be called given the RPC program number program, the program version version, and transport protocol protocol. Conforming implementations shall support both IPPROTO_UDP and IPPROTO_TCP protocols. On entry, address shall specify the address of the system on which the portmapper to be contacted resides. The value of address->sin_port shall be ignored, and the standard value for the portmapper port shall always be used. Note: Security and network restrictions may prevent a conforming application from contacting a remote RPC Binding Service. Return Value On success, the pmap_getport() function shall return the port number in host byte order of the RPC application registered with the remote portmapper. On failure, if either the program was not registered or the remote portmapper service could not be reached, the pmap_getport() function shall return 0. If the remote portmap service could not be reached, the status is left in the global variable rpc_createerr. pmap_set Name pmap_set -- Establishes mapping to machine's RPC Bind service. Synopsis #include bool_t pmap_set(const u_long program, const u_long version, int protocol, u_short port); Description pmap_set() establishes a mapping between the triple [program,version,protocol] and port on the machine's RPC Bind service. The value of protocol is most likely IPPROTO_UDP or IPPROTO_TCP. Automatically done by svc_register(). Return Value pmap_set() returns 1 if it suceeds, 0 otherwise. pmap_unset Name pmap_unset -- Destroys RPC Binding Synopsis #include bool_t pmap_unset(u_long prognum, u_long versnum); Description As a user interface to the RPC Bind service, pmap_unset() destroys all mapping between the triple [prognum,versnum, *] and ports on the machine's RPC Bind service. Return Value pmap_unset() returns 1 if it succeeds, zero otherwise. psignal Name psignal -- print signal message Synopsis #include void psignal(int sig, const char * s); extern const char *const sys_siglist[] Description The psignal() function shall display a message on the stderr stream. If s is not the null pointer, and does not point to an empty string (e.g. "\0"), the message shall consist of the string s, a colon, a space, and a string describing the signal number sig; otherwise psignal() shall display only a message describing the signal number sig. If sig is invalid, the message displayed shall indicate an unknown signal. The array sys_siglist holds the signal description strings indexed by signal number. Return Value psignal() returns no value. regexec Name regexec -- regular expression matching Description The regexec() function shall behave as specified in ISO POSIX (2003), except with differences as listed below. Differences Certain aspects of regular expression matching are optional; see Internationalization and Regular Expressions. scanf Name scanf -- convert formatted input Description The scanf() family of functions shall behave as described in ISO POSIX (2003), except as noted below. Differences The %s, %S and %[ conversion specifiers shall accept an option length modifier a, which shall cause a memory buffer to be allocated to hold the string converted. In such a case, the argument corresponding to the conversion specifier should be a reference to a pointer value that will receive a pointer to the allocated buffer. If there is insufficient memory to allocate a buffer, the function may set errno to ENOMEM and a conversion error results. Note: This directly conflicts with the ISO C (1999) usage of %a as a conversion specifier for hexadecimal float values. While this conversion specifier should be supported, a format specifier such as "%aseconds" will have a different meaning on an LSB conforming system. setbuffer Name setbuffer -- stream buffering operation Synopsis #include void setbuffer(FILE * stream, char * buf, size_t size); Description setbuffer() is an alias for the call to setvbuf(). It works the same, except that the size of the buffer in setbuffer() is up to the caller, rather than being determined by the default BUFSIZ. setgroups Name setgroups -- set list of supplementary group IDs Synopsis #include int setgroups(size_t size, const gid_t * list); Description If the process has appropriate privilege, the setgroups() function shall set the supplementary group IDs for the current process. list shall reference an array of size group IDs. A process may have at most NGROUPS_MAX supplementary group IDs. Return Value On successful completion, 0 is returned. On error, -1 is returned and the errno is set to indicate the error. Errors EFAULT list has an invalid address. EPERM The process does not have appropriate privileges. EINVAL size is greater than NGROUPS_MAX. sethostname Name sethostname -- set host name Synopsis #include #include #include int sethostname(const char * name, size_t len); Description If the process has appropriate privileges, the sethostname() function shall change the host name for the current macine. The name shall point to a null-terminated string of at most len bytes that holds the new hostname. If the symbol HOST_NAME_MAX is defined, or if sysconf(_SC_HOST_NAME_MAX)() returns a value greater than 0, this value shall represent the maximum length of the new hostname. Otherwise, if the symbol MAXHOSTLEN is defined, this value shall represent the maximum length for the new hostname. If none of these values are defined, the maximum length shall be the size of the nodename field of the utsname structure. Return Value On success, 0 is returned. On error, -1 is returned and the global variable errno is set appropriately. Errors EINVAL len is negative or larger than the maximum allowed size. EPERM the process did not have appropriate privilege. EFAULT name is an invalid address. Rationale ISO POSIX (2003) guarantees that: Maximum length of a host name (not including the terminating null) as returned from the gethostname() function shall be at least 255 bytes. The glibc C library does not currently define HOST_NAME_MAX, and although it provides the name _SC_HOST_NAME_MAX a call to sysconf() returns -1 and does not alter errno in this case (indicating that there is no restriction on the hostname length). However, the glibc manual idicates that some implementations may have MAXHOSTNAMELEN as a means of detecting the maximum length, while the Linux kernel at release 2.4 and 2.6 stores this hostname in the utsname structure. While the glibc manual suggests simply shortening the name until sethostname() succeeds, the LSB requires that one of the first four mechanisms works. Future versions of glibc may provide a more reasonable result from sysconf(_SC_HOST_NAME_MAX). setsockopt Name setsockopt -- set socket options Synopsis #include #include int setsockopt(int socket, int level, int option_name, const void * option_value, socklen_t option_len); Description The setsockopt() function shall behave as specified in ISO POSIX (2003), with the following extensions. IP Protocol Level Options If the level parameter is IPPROTO_IP, the following values shall be supported for option_name (see RFC 791:Internet Protocol for further details): IP_OPTIONS Set the Internet Protocol options sent with every packet from this socket. The option_value shall point to a memory buffer containing the options and option_len shall contain the size in bytes of that buffer. For IPv4, the maximum length of options is 40 bytes. IP_TOS Set the Type of Service flags to use when sending packets with this socket. The option_value shall point to a value containing the type of service value. The least significant two bits of the value shall contain the new Type of Service indicator. Use of other bits in the value is unspecified. The option_len parameter shall hold the size, in bytes, of the buffer referred to by option_value. IP_TTL Set the current unicast Internet Protocol Time To Live value used when sending packets with this socket. The option_value shall point to a value containing the time to live value, which shall be between 1 and 255. The option_len parameter shall hold the size, in bytes, of the buffer referred to by option_value. setutent Name setutent -- access user accounting database entries Synopsis #include void setutent(void); Description The setutent() function shall reset the user accounting database such that the next call to getutent() shall be return the first record in the database. It is recommended to call it before any of the other functions that operate on the user accounting databases (e.g. getutent()) Return Value None. sigandset Name sigandset -- build a new signal set by combining the two input sets using logical AND Synopsis #include int sigandset(sigset_t * set, const sigset_t * left, const sigset_t * right); Description The sigandset() shall combine the two signal sets referenced by left and right, using a logical AND operation, and shall place the result in the location referenced by set, The resulting signal set shall contain only signals that are in both the set referenced by left and the set referenced by right. Return Value On success, sigandset() shall return 0. Otherise, sigandset() shall return -1 and set errno to indicate the error. Errors EINVAL One or more of set, left, or right was a null pointer. See Also sigorset() sigisemptyset Name sigisemptyset -- check for empty signal set Synopsis #include int sigisemptyset(const sigset_t * set); Description The sigisemptyset() function shall check for empty signal set referenced by set. Return Value The sigisemptyset() function shall return a positive non-zero value if the signal set referenced by set is empty, or zero if this set is empty. On error, sigisemptyset() shall return -1 and set errno to indicate the error. Errors EINVAL set is a null pointer. sigorset Name sigorset -- build a new signal set by combining the two input sets using logical OR Synopsis #include int sigorset(sigset_t * set, const sigset_t * left, const sigset_t * right); Description The sigorset() shall combine the two signal sets referenced by left and right, using a logical OR operation, and shall place the result in the location referenced by set, The resulting signal set shall contain only signals that are in either the set referenced by left or the set referenced by right. Return Value On success, sigorset() shall return 0. Otherise, sigorset() shall return -1 and set errno to indicate the error. Errors EINVAL One or more of set, left, or right was a null pointer. See Also sigorset() sigreturn Name sigreturn -- return from signal handler and cleanup stack frame Synopsis int sigreturn(struct sigcontext * scp); Description The sigreturn() function is used by the system to cleanup after a signal handler has returned. This function is not in the source standard; it is only in the binary standard. Return Value sigreturn() never returns. sscanf Name sscanf -- convert formatted input Description The scanf() family of functions shall behave as described in ISO POSIX (2003), except as noted below. Differences The %s, %S and %[ conversion specifiers shall accept an option length modifier a, which shall cause a memory buffer to be allocated to hold the string converted. In such a case, the argument corresponding to the conversion specifier should be a reference to a pointer value that will receive a pointer to the allocated buffer. If there is insufficient memory to allocate a buffer, the function may set errno to ENOMEM and a conversion error results. Note: This directly conflicts with the ISO C (1999) usage of %a as a conversion specifier for hexadecimal float values. While this conversion specifier should be supported, a format specifier such as "%aseconds" will have a different meaning on an LSB conforming system. stime Name stime -- set time Synopsis #define _SVID_SOURCE #include int stime(const time_t * t); Description If the process has appropriate privilege, the stime() function shall set the system's idea of the time and date. Time, referenced by t, is measured in seconds from the epoch (defined in ISO POSIX (2003) as 00:00:00 UTC January 1, 1970). Return Value On success, stime() shall return 0. Otherwise, stime() shall return -1 and errno shall be set to indicate the error. Errors EPERM The process does not have appropriate privilege. EINVAL t is a null pointer. stpcpy Name stpcpy -- copy a string returning a pointer to its end Synopsis #include char * stpcpy(char * restrict dest, const char * restrict src); Description The stpcpy() function shall copy the string pointed to by src (including the terminating '\0' character) to the array pointed to by dest. The strings may not overlap, and the destination string dest shall be large enough to receive the copy. Return Value stpcpy() returns a pointer to the end of the string dest (that is, the address of the terminating '\0' character) rather than the beginning. Example This program uses stpcpy() to concatenate foo and bar to produce foobar, which it then prints. #include int main (void) { char buffer[256]; char *to = buffer; to = stpcpy (to, "foo"); to = stpcpy (to, "bar"); printf ("%s\n", buffer); } stpncpy Name stpncpy -- copy a fixed-size string, returning a pointer to its end Synopsis #include char * stpncpy(char * restrict dest, const char * restrict src, size_t n); Description The stpncpy() function shall copy at most n characters from the string pointed to by src, including the terminating \0 character, to the array pointed to by dest. Exactly n characters are written at dest. If the length strlen()(src) is smaller than n, the remaining characters in dest are filled with \0 characters. If the length strlen()(src) is greater than or equal to n, dest will not be \0 terminated. The strings may not overlap. The programmer shall ensure that there is room for at least n characters at dest. Return Value The stpncpy() function shall return a pointer to the terminating NULL in dest, or, if dest is not NULL-terminated, dest + n. strcasestr Name strcasestr -- locate a substring ignoring case Synopsis #include char * strcasestr(const char * s1, const char * s2); Description The strcasestr() shall behave as strstr(), except that it shall ignore the case of both strings. The strcasestr() function shall be locale aware; that is strcasestr() shall behave as if both strings had been converted to lower case in the current locale before the comparison is performed. Return Value Upon successful completion, strcasestr() shall return a pointer to the located string or a null pointer if the string is not found. If s2 points to a string with zero length, the function shall return s1. strerror_r Name strerror_r -- reentrant version of strerror Synopsis #include char * strerror_r(int errnum, char * buf, size_t buflen); Description The strerror_r() shall behave as specified in ISO POSIX (2003), except as described below. Returns String, not Error Value The strerror_r() function shall return a pointer to the string corresponding to errno. The returned pointer may point within the buffer buf (at most buflen bytes). Return Value On success, strerror_r() shall return a pointer to the generated message string (determined by the setting of the LC_MESSAGES category in the current locale). Otherwise, strerror_r() shall return the string corresponding to "Unknown error". strndup Name strndup -- return a malloc'd copy of at most the specified number of bytes of a string Synopsis #include char * strndup(const char * string, size_t n); Description The strndup() function shall return a malloc()'d copy of at most n bytes of string. The resultant string shall be terminated even if no NULL terminator appears before string+n. Return Value On success, strndup() shall return a pointer to a newly allocated block of memory containing a copy of at most n bytes of string. Otherwise, strndup() shall return NULL and set errno to indicate the error. Errors ENOMEM Insufficient memory available. strnlen Name strnlen -- determine the length of a fixed-size string Synopsis #include size_t strnlen(const char * s, size_t maxlen); Description strnlen() returns the number of characters in the string s, not including the terminating \0 character, but at most maxlen. In doing this, strnlen() looks only at the first maxlen characters at s and never beyond s + maxlen. Return Value strnlen() returns strlen(s), if that is less than maxlen, or maxlen if there is no \0 character among the first maxlen characters pointed to by s. strptime Name strptime -- parse a time string Description The strptime() shall behave as specified in the ISO POSIX (2003) with differences as listed below. Number of leading zeroes may be limited The ISO POSIX (2003) specifies fields for which "leading zeros are permitted but not required"; however, applications shall not expect to be able to supply more leading zeroes for these fields than would be implied by the range of the field. Implementations may choose to either match an input with excess leading zeroes, or treat this as a non-matching input. For example, %j has a range of 001 to 366, so 0, 00, 000, 001, and 045 are acceptable inputs, but inputs such as 0000, 0366 and the like are not. Rationale glibc developers consider it appropriate behavior to forbid excess leading zeroes. When trying to parse a given input against several format strings, forbidding excess leading zeroes could be helpful. For example, if one matches 0011-12-26 against %m-%d-%Y and then against %Y-%m-%d, it seems useful for the first match to fail, as it would be perverse to parse that date as November 12, year 26. The second pattern parses it as December 26, year 11. The ISO POSIX (2003) is not explicit that an unlimited number of leading zeroes are required, although it may imply this. The LSB explicitly allows implementations to have either behavior. Future versions of this standard may require implementations to forbid excess leading zeroes. An Interpretation Request is currently pending against ISO POSIX (2003) for this matter. strsep Name strsep -- extract token from string Synopsis #include char * strsep(char * * stringp, const char * delim); Description The strsep() function shall find the first token in the string referenced by the pointer stringp, using the characters in delim as delimiters. If stringp is NULL, strsep() shall return NULL and do nothing else. If stringp is non-NULL, strsep() shall find the first token in the string referenced by stringp, where tokens are delimited by characters in the string delim. This token shall be terminated with a \0 character by overwriting the delimiter, and stringp shall be updated to point past the token. In case no delimiter was found, the token is taken to be the entire string referenced by stringp, and the location referenced by stringp is made NULL. Return Value strsep() shall return a pointer to the beginning of the token. Notes The strsep() function was introduced as a replacement for strtok(), since the latter cannot handle empty fields. However, strtok() conforms to ISO C (1999) and to ISO POSIX (2003) and hence is more portable. See Also strtok(), strtok_r(). strsignal Name strsignal -- return string describing signal Synopsis #define _GNU_SOURCE #include char * strsignal(int sig); extern const char * const sys_siglist[]; Description The strsignal() function shall return a pointer to a string describing the signal number sig. The string can only be used until the next call to strsignal(). The array sys_siglist holds the signal description strings indexed by signal number. This array should not be accessed directly by applications. Return Value If sig is a valid signal number, strsignal() shall return a pointer to the appropriate description string. Otherwise, strsignal() shall return either a pointer to the string "unknown signal", or a null pointer. Although the function is not declared as returning a pointer to a constant character string, applications shall not modify the returned string. strtoq Name strtoq -- convert string value to a long or quad_t integer Synopsis #include #include #include long long strtoq(const char * nptr, char * * endptr, int base); Description strtoq() converts the string nptr to a quadt value. The conversion is done according to the given base, which shall be between 2 and 36 inclusive, or be the special value 0. nptr may begin with an arbitrary amount of white space (as determined by isspace()(3)), followed by a single optional + or - sign character. If base is 0 or 16, the string may then include a 0x prefix, and the number will be read in base 16; otherwise, a 0 base is taken as 10 (decimal), unless the next character is 0, in which case it is taken as 8 (octal). The remainder of the string is converted to a long value in the obvious manner, stopping at the first character which is not a valid digit in the given base. (In bases above 10, the letter A in either upper or lower case represents 10, B represents 11, and so forth, with Z representing 35.) Return Value strtoq() returns the result of the conversion, unless the value would underflow or overflow. If an underflow occurs, strtoq() returns QUAD_MIN. If an overflow occurs, strtoq() returns QUAD_MAX. In both cases, the global variable errno is set to ERANGE. Errors ERANGE The given string was out of range; the value converted has been clamped. strtouq Name strtouq -- convert a string to an unsigned long long Synopsis #include #include #include unsigned long long strtouq(const char * nptr, char * * endptr, int base); Description strtouq() converts the string nptr to an unsigned long long value. The conversion is done according to the given base, which shall be between 2 and 36 inclusive, or be the special value 0. nptr may begin with an arbitrary amount of white space (as determined by isspace()(3)), followed by a single optional + or - sign character. If base is 0 or 16, the string may then include a 0x prefix, and the number will be read in base 16; otherwise, a 0 base is taken as 10 (decimal), unless the next character is 0, in which case it is taken as 8 (octal). The remainder of the string is converted to an unsigned long value in the obvious manner, stopping at the end of the string or at the first character that does not produce a valid digit in the given base. (In bases above 10, the letter A in either upper or lower case represents 10, B represents 11, and so forth, with Z representing 35.) Return Value On success, strtouq() returns either the result of the conversion or, if there was a leading minus sign, the negation of the result of the conversion, unless the original (non-negated) value would overflow. In the case of an overflow the function returns UQUAD_MAX and the global variable errno is set to ERANGE. Errors ERANGE The given string was out of range; the value converted has been clamped. svc_register Name svc_register -- Register Remote Procedure Call Interface Synopsis #include bool_t svc_register(SVCXPRT * xprt, rpcprog_t prognum, rpcvers_t versnum, __dispatch_fn_t dispatch, rpcprot_t protocol); Description The svc_register() function shall associate the program identified by prognum at version versnum with the service dispatch procedure, dispatch. If protocol is zero, the service is not registered with the portmap service. If protocol is non-zero, then a mapping of the triple [prognum, versnum, protocol] to xprt->xp_port is established with the local portmap service. The procedure dispatch has the following form: int dispatch(struct svc_req * request, SVCXPRT * xprt); Return Value svc_register() returns 1 if it succeeds, and zero otherwise. svc_run Name svc_run -- Waits for RPC requests to arrive and calls service procedure. Synopsis #include void svc_run(void); Description The svc_run() function shall wait for RPC requests to arrive, read and unpack each request, and dispatch it to the appropriate registered handler. Under normal conditions, svc_run() shall not return; it shall only return if serious errors occur that prevent further processing. svc_sendreply Name svc_sendreply -- called by RPC service's dispatch routine Synopsis bool_t svc_sendreply(SVCXPRT *xprt, xdrproc_t outproc, caddr_t out); Description Called by an RPC service's dispatch routine to send the results of a remote procedure call. The parameter xprt is the request's associated transport handle; outproc is the XDR routine which is used to encode the results; and out is the address of the results. This routine returns one if it succeeds, zero other-wise. svctcp_create Name svctcp_create -- Creates a TCP/IP-based RPC service transport. Synopsis #include SVCXPRT * svctcp_create(int sock, u_int send_buf_size, u_int recv_buf_size); Description svctcp_create() cretes a TCP/IP-based RPC service transport, to which it returns a pointer. The transport is associated with the socket sock, which may be RPC_ANYSOCK, in which case a new socket is created. If the socket is not bound to a local TCP port, then this routine binds it to an arbitrary port. Upon completion, xprt->xp_sock is the transport's socket descriptor, and xprt->xp_port is the transport's port number. Since TCP-based RPC uses buffered I/O, users may specify the size of buffers; values of zero choose suitable defaults. Return Value svctcp_create() returns NULL if it fails, or a pointer to the RPC service transport otherwise. svcudp_create Name svcudp_create -- Creates a UDP-based RPC service transport. Synopsis SVCXPRT * svcudp_create(int sock); Description This call is equivalent to svcudp_bufcreate( sock, SZ, SZ) for some default size SZ. swscanf Name swscanf -- convert formatted input Description The scanf() family of functions shall behave as described in ISO POSIX (2003), except as noted below. Differences The %s, %S and %[ conversion specifiers shall accept an option length modifier a, which shall cause a memory buffer to be allocated to hold the string converted. In such a case, the argument corresponding to the conversion specifier should be a reference to a pointer value that will receive a pointer to the allocated buffer. If there is insufficient memory to allocate a buffer, the function may set errno to ENOMEM and a conversion error results. Note: This directly conflicts with the ISO C (1999) usage of %a as a conversion specifier for hexadecimal float values. While this conversion specifier should be supported, a format specifier such as "%aseconds" will have a different meaning on an LSB conforming system. system Name system -- execute a shell command Synopsis #include int system(const char * string); Description The system() function shall behave as described in ISO POSIX (2003). Notes The fact that system() ignores interrupts is often not what a program wants. ISO POSIX (2003) describes some of the consequences; an additional consequence is that a program calling system() from a loop cannot be reliably interrupted. Many programs will want to use the exec() family of functions instead. Do not use system() from a program with suid or sgid privileges, because unexpected values for some environment variables might be used to subvert system integrity. Use the exec() family of functions instead, but not execlp() or execvp(). system() will not, in fact, work properly from programs with suid or sgid privileges on systems on which /bin/sh is bash version 2, since bash 2 drops privileges on startup. (Debian uses a modified bash which does not do this when invoked as sh.) The check for the availability of /bin/sh is not actually performed; it is always assumed to be available. ISO C (1999) specifies the check, but ISO POSIX (2003) specifies that the return shall always be nonzero, since a system without the shell is not conforming, and it is this that is implemented. It is possible for the shell command to return 127, so that code is not a sure indication that the execve() call failed; check the global variable errno to make sure. textdomain Name textdomain -- set the current default message domain Synopsis #include char * textdomain(const char * domainname); Description The textdomain() function shall set the current default message domain to domainname. Subsequent calls to gettext() and ngettext() use the default message domain. If domainname is NULL, the default message domain shall not be altered. If domainname is "", textdomain() shall reset the default domain to the system default of "messages". Return On success, textdomain() shall return the currently selected domain. Otherwise, a null pointer shall be returned, and errno set to indicate the error. Errors ENOMEM Insufficent memory available. unlink Name unlink -- remove a directory entry Synopsis int unlink(const char * path); Description unlink() is as specified in ISO POSIX (2003), but with differences as listed below. See also Additional behaviors: unlink/link on directory. May return EISDIR on directories If path specifies a directory, the implementation may return EISDIR instead of EPERM as specified by ISO POSIX (2003). Rationale: The Linux kernel has deliberately chosen EISDIR for this case and does not expect to change (Al Viro, personal communication). uselocale Name uselocale -- Set locale for thread Synopsis #include locale_t uselocale(locale_t newloc); Description The uselocale() function shall set the locale for the calling thread to the locale specified by newloc. If newloc is the value LC_GLOBAL_LOCALE, the thread's locale shall be set to the process current global locale, as set by setlocale(). If newloc is NULL, the thread's locale is not altered. Return Value The uselocale() function shall return the previous locale, or LC_GLOBAL_LOCALE if the thread local locale has not been previously set. Errors None defined. See Also setlocale(), freelocale(), duplocale(), newlocale() utmpname Name utmpname -- set user accounting database Synopsis #include int utmpname(const char * dbname); Description The utmpname() function shall cause the user accounting database used by the getutent(), getutent_r(), getutxent(), getutxid(), getutxline(), and pututxline() functions to be that named by dbname, instead of the system default database. See Section 4.2 for further information. Note: The LSB does not specify the format of the user accounting database, nor the names of the file or files that may contain it. Return Value None. Errors None defined. vasprintf Name vasprintf -- write formatted output to a dynamically allocated string Synopsis #include #include int vasprintf(char * * restrict ptr, const char * restrict format, va_list arg); Description The vasprintf() function shall write formatted output to a dynamically allocated string, and store the address of that string in the location referenced by ptr. It shall behave as asprintf(), except that instead of being called with a variable number of arguments, it is called with an argument list as defined by . Return Value Refer to fprintf(). Errors Refer to fprintf(). vdprintf Name vdprintf -- write formatted output to a file descriptor Synopsis #include int vdprintf(int fd, const char * restrict format, va_list arg); Description The vdprintf() shall behave as vfprintf(), except that the first argument is a file descriptor rather than a STDIO stream. Return Value Refer to fprintf(). Errors Refer to fprintf(). verrx Name verrx -- display formatted error message and exit Synopsis #include #include void verrx(int eval, const char * fmt, va_list args); Description The verrx() shall behave as errx() except that instead of being called with a variable number of arguments, it is called with an argument list as defined by . verrx() does not return, but exits with the value of eval. Return Value None. Errors None. vfscanf Name vfscanf -- convert formatted input Description The scanf() family of functions shall behave as described in ISO POSIX (2003), except as noted below. Differences The %s, %S and %[ conversion specifiers shall accept an option length modifier a, which shall cause a memory buffer to be allocated to hold the string converted. In such a case, the argument corresponding to the conversion specifier should be a reference to a pointer value that will receive a pointer to the allocated buffer. If there is insufficient memory to allocate a buffer, the function may set errno to ENOMEM and a conversion error results. Note: This directly conflicts with the ISO C (1999) usage of %a as a conversion specifier for hexadecimal float values. While this conversion specifier should be supported, a format specifier such as "%aseconds" will have a different meaning on an LSB conforming system. vfwscanf Name vfwscanf -- convert formatted input Description The scanf() family of functions shall behave as described in ISO POSIX (2003), except as noted below.

Note: This directly conflicts with the ISO C (1999) usage of %a as a conversion specifier for hexadecimal float values. While this conversion specifier should be supported, a format specifier such as "%aseconds" will have a different meaning on an LSB conforming system. vscanf Name vscanf -- convert formatted input Description The scanf() family of functions shall behave as described in ISO POSIX (2003), except as noted below. Differences The %s, %S and %[ conversion specifiers shall accept an option length modifier a, which shall cause a memory buffer to be allocated to hold the string converted. In such a case, the argument corresponding to the conversion specifier should be a reference to a pointer value that will receive a pointer to the allocated buffer.

Differences The %s, %S and %[ conversion specifiers shall accept an option length modifier a, which shall cause a memory buffer to be allocated to hold the string converted.

Differences The %s, %S and %[ conversion specifiers shall accept an option length modifier a, which shall cause a memory buffer to be allocated to hold the string converted. In such a case, the argument corresponding to the conversion specifier should be a reference to a pointer value that will receive a pointer to the allocated buffer.

Note: This directly conflicts with the ISO C (1999) usage of %a as a conversion specifier for hexadecimal float values. While this conversion specifier should be supported, a format specifier such as "%aseconds" will have a different meaning on an LSB conforming system. vsyslog Name vsyslog -- log to system log Synopsis #include #include void vsyslog(int priority, char * message, va_list arglist); Description The vsyslog() function is identical to syslog() as specified in ISO POSIX (2003), except that arglist (as defined by stdarg.h) replaces the variable number of arguments. vwscanf Name vwscanf -- convert formatted input Description The scanf() family of functions shall behave as described in ISO POSIX (2003), except as noted below. Differences The %s, %S and %[ conversion specifiers shall accept an option length modifier a, which shall cause a memory buffer to be allocated to hold the string converted.

If a child (as requested by pid) has already exited by the time of the call (a so-called "zombie" process), the function returns immediately. Any system resources used by the child are freed. The value of pid can be one of: < -1 wait for any child process whose process group ID is equal to the absolute value of pid. -1 wait for any child process; this is equivalent to calling wait3(). 0 wait for any child process whose process group ID is equal to that of the calling process. > 0 wait for the child whose process ID is equal to the value of pid. The value of options is a bitwise or of zero or more of the following constants: WNOHANG return immediately if no child is there to be waited for. WUNTRACED return for children that are stopped, and whose status has not been reported. If status is not NULL, wait4() stores status information in the location status. This status can be evaluated with the following macros: Note: These macros take the status value (an int) as an argument -- not a pointer to the value! WIFEXITED(status) is nonzero if the child exited normally. WEXITSTATUS(status) evaluates to the least significant eight bits of the return code of the child that terminated, which may have been set as the argument to a call to exit() or as the argument for a return statement in the main program. This macro can only be evaluated if WIFEXITED() returned nonzero. WIFSIGNALED(status) returns true if the child process exited because of a signal that was not caught. WTERMSIG(status) returns the number of the signal that caused the child process to terminate. This macro can only be evaluated if WIFSIGNALED() returned nonzero. WIFSTOPPED(status) returns true if the child process that caused the return is currently stopped; this is only possible if the call was done using WUNTRACED(). WSTOPSIG(status) returns the number of the signal that caused the child to stop. This macro can only be evaluated if WIFSTOPPED() returned nonzero. If rusage is not NULL, the struct rusage (as defined in sys/resource.h) that it points to will be filled with accounting information. (See getrusage()(2) for details. Return Value On success, the process ID of the child that exited is returned. On error, -1 is returned (in particular, when no unwaited-for child processes of the specified kind exist), or 0 if WNOHANG() was used and no child was available yet. In the latter two cases, the global variable errno is set appropriately. Errors ECHILD No unwaited-for child process as specified does exist. ERESTARTSYS A WNOHANG() was not set and an unblocked signal or a SIGCHILD was caught. This error is returned by the system call. The library interface is not allowed to return ERESTARTSYS, but will return EINTR. waitpid Name waitpid -- wait for child process Description waitpid() is as specified in ISO POSIX (2003), but with differences as listed below. Need not support WCONTINUED or WIFCONTINUED Implementations need not support the XSI optional functionality of WCONTINUED() or WIFCONTINUED(). warn Name warn -- formatted error messages Synopsis #include void warn(const char * fmt, ...); Description The warn() function shall display a formatted error message on the standard error stream. The output shall consist of the last component of the program name, a colon character, and a space character. If fmt is non-NULL, it shall be used as a format string for the printf() family of functions, and the formatted message, a colon character, and a space are written to stderr. Finally, the error message string affiliated with the current value of the global variable errno shall be written to stderr, followed by a newline character. Return Value None. Errors None. warnx Name warnx -- formatted error messages Synopsis #include void warnx(const char * fmt, ...); Description The warnx() function shall display a formatted error message on the standard error stream. The last component of the program name, a colon character, and a space shall be output. If fmt is non-NULL, it shall be used as the format string for the printf() family of functions, and the formatted error message, a colon character, and a space shall be output. The output shall be followed by a newline character. Return Value None. Errors None. wcpcpy Name wcpcpy -- copy a wide character string, returning a pointer to its end Synopsis #include wchar_t * wcpcpy(wchar_t * dest, const wchar_t * src); Description wcpcpy() is the wide-character equivalent of stpcpy(). It copies the wide character string src, including the terminating L'\0' character, to the array dest. The strings may not overlap. The programmer shall ensure that there is room for at least wcslen()(src)+1 wide characters at dest. Return Value wcpcpy() returns a pointer to the end of the wide-character string dest, that is, a pointer to the terminating L'\0' character. wcpncpy Name wcpncpy -- copy a fixed-size string of wide characters, returning a pointer to its end Synopsis #include wchar_t * wcpncpy(wchar_t * dest, const wchar_t * src, size_t n); Description wcpncpy() is the wide-character equivalent of stpncpy(). It copies at most n wide characters from the wide-character string src, including the terminating L'\0' character, to the array dest. Exactly n wide characters are written at dest. If the length wcslen()(src) is smaller than n, the remaining wide characters in the array dest are filled with L'\0' characters. If the length wcslen()(src) is greater than or equal to n, the string dest will not be L'\0' terminated. The strings may not overlap. The programmer shall ensure that there is room for at least n wide characters at dest. Return Value wcpncpy() returns a pointer to the wide character one past the last non-null wide character written. wcscasecmp Name wcscasecmp -- compare two wide-character strings, ignoring case Synopsis #include int wcscasecmp(const wchar_t * s1, const wchar_t * s2); Description wcscasecmp() is the wide-character equivalent of strcasecmp(). It compares the wide-character string s1 and the wide-character string s2, ignoring case differences (towupper, towlower). Return Value wcscasecmp() returns 0 if the wide-character strings s1 and s2 are equal except for case distinctions. It returns a positive integer if s1 is greater than s2, ignoring case. It returns a negative integer if s1 is smaller than s2, ignoring case. Notes The behavior of wcscasecmp() depends upon the LC_CTYPE category of the current locale. wcsdup Name wcsdup -- duplicate a wide-character string Synopsis #include wchar_t * wcsdup(const wchar_t * s); Description wcsdup() is the wide-character equivalent of strdup(). It allocates and returns a new wide-character string whose initial contents is a duplicate of the wide-character string s. Memory for the new wide-character string is obtained with malloc(), and can be freed with free(). Return Value wcsdup() returns a pointer to the new wide-character string, or NULL if sufficient memory was not available. wcsncasecmp Name wcsncasecmp -- compare two fixed-size wide-character strings, ignoring case Synopsis #include int wcsncasecmp(const wchar_t * s1, const wchar_t * s2, size_t n); Description wcsncasecmp() is the wide-character equivalent of strncasecmp(). It compares the wide-character string s1 and the wide-character string s2, but at most n wide characters from each string, ignoring case differences (towupper, towlower). Return Value wcscasecmp() returns 0 if the wide-character strings s1 and s2, truncated to at most length n, are equal except for case distinctions. It returns a positive integer if truncated s1 is greater than truncated s2, ignoring case. It returns a negative integer if truncated s1 is smaller than truncated s2, ignoring case. Notes The behavior of wcsncasecmp() depends upon the LC_CTYPE category of the current locale. wcsnlen Name wcsnlen -- determine the length of a fixed-size wide-character string Synopsis #include size_t wcsnlen(const wchar_t * s, size_t maxlen); Description wcsnlen() is the wide-character equivalent of strnlen(). It returns the number of wide-characters in the string s, not including the terminating L'\0' character, but at most maxlen. In doing this, wcsnlen() looks only at the first maxlen wide-characters at s and never beyond s + maxlen. Return Value wcsnlen() returns wcslen()(s) if that is less than maxlen, or maxlen if there is no L'\0' character among the first maxlen wide characters pointed to by s. Notes The behavior of wcsncasecmp() depends on the LC_CTYPE category of the current locale. wcsnrtombs Name wcsnrtombs -- convert a wide character string to a multi-byte string Synopsis #include size_t wcsnrtombs(char * dest, const wchar_t * * src, size_t nwc, size_t len, mbstate_t * ps); Description wcsnrtombs() is like wcsrtombs(), except that the number of wide characters to be converted, starting at src, is limited to nwc. If dest is not a NULL pointer, wcsnrtombs() converts at most nwc wide characters from the wide-character string src to a multibyte string starting at dest. At most len bytes are written to dest. The state ps is updated. The conversion is effectively performed by repeatedly calling: wcrtomb(dest, *src, ps) as long as this call succeeds, and then incrementing dest by the number of bytes written and src by 1. The conversion can stop for three reasons: * A wide character has been encountered that cannot be represented as a multibyte sequence (according to the current locale). In this case src is left pointing to the invalid wide character, (size_t)(-1) is returned, and errno is set to EILSEQ. * nws wide characters have been converted without encountering a L'\0', or the length limit forces a stop. In this case, src is left pointing to the next wide character to be converted, and the number bytes written to dest is returned. * The wide-character string has been completely converted, including the terminating L'\0' (which has the side effect of bringing back ps to the initial state). In this case, src is set to NULL, and the number of bytes written to dest, excluding the terminating L'\0' byte, is returned. If dest is NULL, len is ignored, and the conversion proceeds as above, except that the converted bytes are not written out to memory, and that no destination length limit exists. In both of the above cases, if ps is a NULL pointer, a static anonymous state only known to wcsnrtombs() is used instead. The programmer shall ensure that there is room for at least len bytes at dest. Return Value wcsnrtombs() returns the number of bytes that make up the converted part of multibyte sequence, not including the terminating L'\0' byte. If a wide character was encountered which could not be converted, (size_t)(-1) is returned, and the global variable errno set to EILSEQ. Notes The behavior of wcsnrtombs() depends on the LC_CTYPE category of the current locale. Passing NULL as ps is not multi-thread safe. wcstoq Name wcstoq -- convert wide string to long long int representation Synopsis #include long long int wcstoq(const wchar_t * restrict nptr, wchar_t ** restrict endptr, int base); Description The wcstoq() function shall convert the initial portion of the wide string nptr to long long int representation. It is identical to wcstoll(). Return Value Refer to wcstoll(). Errors Refer to wcstoll(). wcstouq Name wcstouq -- convert wide string to unsigned long long int representation Synopsis #include unsigned long long wcstouq(const wchar_t * restrict nptr, wchar_t ** restrict endptr, int base); Description The wcstouq() function shall convert the initial portion of the wide string nptr to unsigned long long int representation. It is identical to wcstoull(). Return Value Refer to wcstoull(). Errors Refer to wcstoull(). wscanf Name wscanf -- convert formatted input Description The scanf() family of functions shall behave as described in ISO POSIX (2003), except as noted below. Differences The %s, %S and %[ conversion specifiers shall accept an option length modifier a, which shall cause a memory buffer to be allocated to hold the string converted. In such a case, the argument corresponding to the conversion specifier should be a reference to a pointer value that will receive a pointer to the allocated buffer. If there is insufficient memory to allocate a buffer, the function may set errno to ENOMEM and a conversion error results. Note: This directly conflicts with the ISO C (1999) usage of %a as a conversion specifier for hexadecimal float values. While this conversion specifier should be supported, a format specifier such as "%aseconds" will have a different meaning on an LSB conforming system. xdr_u_int Name xdr_u_int -- library routines for external data representation Synopsis int xdr_u_int(XDR * xdrs, unsigned int * up); Description xdr_u_int() is a filter primitive that translates between C unsigned integers and their external representations. Return Value On success, 1 is returned. On error, 0 is returned. _________________________________________________________ 1.6.

Unless otherwise noted, these interfaces shall be included in the source standard. Other interfaces listed above for libpam shall behave as described in the referenced base document. pam_acct_mgmt Name pam_acct_mgmt -- establish the status of a user's account Synopsis #include int pam_acct_mgmt(pam_handle_t * pamh, int flags); Description pam_acct_mgmt() establishes the account's usability and the user's accessibility to the system. It is typically called after the user has been authenticated. flags may be specified as any valid flag (namely, one of those applicable to the flags argument of pam_authenticate()). Additionally, the value of flags may be logically or'd with PAM_SILENT. Return Value PAM_SUCCESS Success. PAM_NEW_AUTHTOK_REQD User is valid, but user's authentication token has expired. The correct response to this return-value is to require that the user satisfy the pam_chauthtok() function before obtaining service. It may not be possible for an application to do this. In such a case, the user should be denied access until the account password is updated. PAM_ACCT_EXPIRED User is no longer permitted access to the system. PAM_AUTH_ERR Authentication error. PAM_PERM_DENIED User is not permitted to gain access at this time. PAM_USER_UNKNOWN User is not known to a module's account management component. Errors May be translated to text with pam_strerror(). pam_authenticate Name pam_authenticate -- authenticate the user Synopsis #include int pam_authenticate(pam_handle_t * pamh, int flags); Description pam_authenticate() serves as an interface to the authentication mechanisms of the loaded modules. flags is an optional parameter that may be specified by the following value: PAM_DISALLOW_NULL_AUTHTOK Instruct the authentication modules to return PAM_AUTH_ERR if the user does not have a registered authorization token. Additionally, the value of flags may be logically or'd with PAM_SILENT. The process may need to be privileged in order to successfully call this function. Return Value PAM_SUCCESS Success. PAM_AUTH_ERR User was not authenticated or process did not have sufficient privileges to perform authentication. PAM_CRED_INSUFFICIENT Application does not have sufficient credentials to authenticate the user. PAM_AUTHINFO_UNAVAIL Modules were not able to access the authentication information. This might be due to a network or hardware failure, etc. PAM_USER_UNKNOWN Supplied username is not known to the authentication service. PAM_MAXTRIES One or more authentication modules has reached its limit of tries authenticating the user. Do not try again. PAM_ABORT One or more authentication modules failed to load. Errors May be translated to text with pam_strerror(). pam_chauthtok Name pam_chauthtok -- change the authentication token for a given user Synopsis #include int pam_chauthtok(pam_handle_t * pamh, const int flags); Description pam_chauthtok() is used to change the authentication token for a given user as indicated by the state associated with the handle pamh. flags is an optional parameter that may be specified by the following value: PAM_CHANGE_EXPIRED_AUTHTOK User's authentication token should only be changed if it has expired. Additionally, the value of flags may be logically or'd with PAM_SILENT. RETURN VALUE PAM_SUCCESS Success. PAM_AUTHTOK_ERR A module was unable to obtain the new authentication token. PAM_AUTHTOK_RECOVER_ERR A module was unable to obtain the old authentication token. PAM_AUTHTOK_LOCK_BUSY One or more modules were unable to change the authentication token since it is currently locked. PAM_AUTHTOK_DISABLE_AGING Authentication token aging has been disabled for at least one of the modules. PAM_PERM_DENIED Permission denied. PAM_TRY_AGAIN Not all modules were in a position to update the authentication token(s). In such a case, none of the user's authentication tokens are updated. PAM_USER_UNKNOWN User is not known to the authentication token changing service. ERRORS May be translated to text with pam_strerror(). pam_close_session Name pam_close_session -- indicate that an authenticated session has ended Synopsis #include int pam_close_session(pam_handle_t * pamh, int flags); Description pam_close_session() is used to indicate that an authenticated session has ended. It is used to inform the module that the user is exiting a session. It should be possible for the PAM library to open a session and close the same session from different applications. flags may have the value PAM_SILENT to indicate that no output should be generated as a result of this function call. Return Value PAM_SUCCESS Success. PAM_SESSION_ERR One of the required loaded modules was unable to close a session for the user. Errors May be translated to text with pam_strerror(). pam_end Name pam_end -- terminate the use of the PAM library Synopsis #include int pam_end(pam_handle_t * pamh, int pam_status); Description pam_end() terminates use of the PAM library. On success, the contents of *pamh are no longer valid, and all memory associated with it is invalid. Normally, pam_status is passed the value PAM_SUCCESS, but in the event of an unsuccessful service application, the appropriate PAM error return value should be used. Return Value PAM_SUCCESS Success. Errors May be translated to text with pam_strerror(). pam_fail_delay Name pam_fail_delay -- specify delay time to use on authentication error Synopsis #include int pam_fail_delay(pam_handle_t * pamh, unsigned int micro_sec); Description pam_fail_delay() specifies the minimum delay for the PAM library to use when an authentication error occurs. The actual delay can vary by as much at 25%. If this function is called multiple times, the longest time specified by any of the call will be used. The delay is invoked if an authentication error occurs during the pam_authenticate() or pam_chauthtok() function calls. Independent of the success of pam_authenticate() or pam_chauthtok(), the delay time is reset to its default value of 0 when the PAM library returns control to the application from these two functions. Return Value PAM_SUCCESS Success. Errors May be translated to text with pam_strerror(). pam_get_item Name pam_get_item -- obtain the value of the indicated item. Synopsis #include int pam_get_item(const pam_handle_t * pamh, int item_type, const void * * item); Description pam_get_item() obtains the value of the indicated item_type. The possible values of item_type are the same as listed for pam_set_item(). On success, item contains a pointer to the value of the corresponding item. Note that this is a pointer to the actual data and should not be free()'d or over-written. Return Value PAM_SUCCESS Success. PAM_PERM_DENIED Application passed a NULL pointer for item. PAM_BAD_ITEM Application attempted to get an undefined item. Errors May be translated to text with pam_strerror(). pam_getenvlist Name pam_getenvlist -- returns a pointer to the complete PAM environment. Synopsis #include char * const * pam_getenvlist(pam_handle_t * pamh); Description pam_getenvlist() returns a pointer to the complete PAM environment. This pointer points to an array of pointers to NUL-terminated strings and must be terminated by a NULL pointer. Each string has the form "name=value". The PAM library module allocates memory for the returned value and the associated strings. The calling application is responsible for freeing this memory. Return Value pam_getenvlist() returns an array of string pointers containing the PAM environment. On error, NULL is returned. pam_open_session Name pam_open_session -- used to indicate that an authenticated session has been initiated Synopsis #include int pam_open_session(pam_handle_t * pamh, int flags); Description pam_handle_t() is used to indicate that an authenticated session has begun. It is used to inform the module that the user is currently in a session. It should be possible for the PAM library to open a session and close the same session from different applications. flags may have the value PAM_SILENT to indicate that no output be generated as a rsult of this function call. Return Value PAM_SUCCESS Success. PAM_SESSION_ERR One of the loaded modules was unable to open a session for the user. ERRORS May be translated to text with pam_strerror(). pam_set_item Name pam_set_item -- (re)set the value of an item. Synopsis #include int pam_set_item(pam_handle_t * pamh, int item_type, const void * item); Description pam_set_item() (re)sets the value of one of the following item_types: PAM_SERVICE service name PAM_USER user name PAM_TTY terminal name The value for a device file should include the /dev/ prefix. The value for graphical, X-based, applications should be the $DISPLAY variable. PAM_RHOST remote host name PAM_CONV conversation structure PAM_RUSER remote user name PAM_USER_PROMPT string to be used when prompting for a user's name The default value for this string is Please enter username: . For all item_types other than PAM_CONV, item is a pointer to a NULL-terminated character string. In the case of PAM_CONV, item points to an initialized pam_conv structure. Return Value PAM_SUCCESS Success. PAM_PERM_DENIED An attempt was made to replace the conversation structure with a NULL value. PAM_BUF_ERR Function ran out of memory making a copy of the item. PAM_BAD_ITEM Application attempted to set an undefined item. Errors May be translated to text with pam_strerror(). pam_setcred Name pam_setcred -- set the module-specific credentials of the user Synopsis #include extern int pam_setcred(pam_handle_t * pamh, int flags); Description pam_setcred() sets the module-specific credentials of the user. It is usually called after the user has been authenticated, after the account management function has been called and after a session has been opened for the user. flags maybe specified from among the following values: PAM_ESTABLISH_CRED set credentials for the authentication service PAM_DELETE_CRED delete credentials associated with the authentication service PAM_REINITIALIZE_CRED reinitialize the user credentials PAM_REFRESH_CRED extend lifetime of the user credentials Additionally, the value of flags may be logically or'd with PAM_SILENT. Return Value PAM_SUCCESS Success. PAM_CRED_UNAVAIL Module cannot retrieve the user's credentials. PAM_CRED_EXPIRED User's credentials have expired. PAM_USER_UNKNOWN User is not known to an authentication module. PAM_CRED_ERR Module was unable to set the credentials of the user. Errors May be translated to text with pam_strerror(). pam_start Name pam_start -- initialize the PAM library Synopsis #include int pam_start(const char * service_name, const char * user, const struct pam_conv * pam_conversation, pam_handle_t * * pamh); Description pam_start() is used to initialize the PAM library. It must be called prior to any other usage of the PAM library. On success, *pamh becomes a handle that provides continuity for successive calls to the PAM library. pam_start() expects arguments as follows: the service_name of the program, the username of the individual to be authenticated, a pointer to an application-supplied pam_conv structure, and a pointer to a pam_handle_t pointer. An application must provide the conversation function used for direct communication between a loaded module and the application. The application also typically provides a means for the module to prompt the user for a password, etc. The structure, pam_conv, is defined to be, struct pam_conv { int (*conv) (int num_msg, const struct pam_message * *msg, struct pam_response * *resp, void *appdata_ptr); void *appdata_ptr; }; It is initialized by the application before it is passed to the library. The contents of this structure are attached to the *pamh handle. The point of this argument is to provide a mechanism for any loaded module to interact directly with the application program; this is why it is called a conversation structure. When a module calls the referenced conv() function, appdata_ptr is set to the second element of this structure. The other arguments of a call to conv() concern the information exchanged by module and application. num_msg holds the length of the array of pointers passed via msg. On success, the pointer resp points to an array of num_msg pam_response structures, holding the application-supplied text. Note that resp is a struct pam_response array and not an array of pointers. Return Value PAM_SUCCESS Success. PAM_BUF_ERR Memory allocation error. PAM_ABORT Internal failure. ERRORS May be translated to text with pam_strerror(). pam_strerror Name pam_strerror -- returns a string describing the PAM error Synopsis #include const char * pam_strerror(pam_handle_t * pamh, int errnum); Description pam_strerror() returns a string describing the PAM error associated with errnum. Return Value On success, this function returns a description of the indicated error. The application should not free or modify this string. Otherwise, a string indicating that the error is unknown shall be returned. It is unspecified whether or not the string returned is translated according to the setting of LC_MESSAGES. II.

Unless otherwise noted, these interfaces shall be included in the source standard. Other interfaces listed above for libz shall behave as described in the referenced base document. adler32 Name adler32 -- Compute Adler 32 Checksum Synopsis #include uLong adler32(uLong adler, const Bytef * buf, uInt len); Description The adler32() function shall compute a running Adler-32 checksum (as described in RFC 1950: ZLIB Compressed Data Format Specication). On entry, adler is the previous value for the checksum, and buf shall point to an array of len bytes of data to be added to this checksum. The adler32() function shall return the new checksum. If buf is NULL (or Z_NULL), adler32() shall return the initial checksum. Return Value The adler32() function shall return the new checksum value. Errors None defined. Application Usage (informative) The following code fragment demonstrates typical usage of the adler32() function: uLong adler = adler32(0L, Z_NULL, 0); while (read_buffer(buffer, length) != EOF) { adler = adler32(adler, buffer, length); } if (adler != original_adler) error(); compress Name compress -- compress data Synopsis #include int compress(Bytef * dest, uLongf * destLen, const Bytef * source, uLong sourceLen); Description The compress() function shall attempt to compress sourceLen bytes of data in the buffer source, placing the result in the buffer dest. On entry, destLen should point to a value describing the size of the dest buffer. The application should ensure that this value be at least (sourceLen × 1.001) + 12. On successful exit, the variable referenced by destLen shall be updated to hold the length of compressed data in dest. The compress() function is equivalent to compress2() with a level of Z_DEFAULT_LEVEL. Return Value On success, compress() shall return Z_OK. Otherwise, compress() shall return a value to indicate the error. Errors On error, compress() shall return a value as described below: Z_BUF_ERROR The buffer dest was not large enough to hold the compressed data. Z_MEM_ERROR Insufficient memory. compress2 Name compress2 -- compress data at a specified level Synopsis #include int compress2(Bytef * dest, uLongf * destLen, const Bytef * source, uLong sourceLen, int level); Description The compress2() function shall attempt to compress sourceLen bytes of data in the buffer source, placing the result in the buffer dest, at the level described by level. The level supplied shall be a value between 0 and 9, or the value Z_DEFAULT_COMPRESSION. A level of 1 requests the highest speed, while a level of 9 requests the highest compression. A level of 0 indicates that no compression should be used, and the output shall be the same as the input. On entry, destLen should point to a value describing the size of the dest buffer. The application should ensure that this value be at least (sourceLen × 1.001) + 12. On successful exit, the variable referenced by destLen shall be updated to hold the length of compressed data in dest. The compress() function is equivalent to compress2() with a level of Z_DEFAULT_LEVEL. Return Value On success, compress2() shall return Z_OK. Otherwise, compress2() shall return a value to indicate the error. Errors On error, compress2() shall return a value as described below: Z_BUF_ERROR The buffer dest was not large enough to hold the compressed data. Z_MEM_ERROR Insufficient memory. Z_STREAM_ERROR The level was not Z_DEFAULT_LEVEL, or was not between 0 and 9. compressBound Name compressBound -- compute compressed data size Synopsis #include int compressBound(uLong sourceLen); Description The compressBound() function shall estimate the size of buffer required to compress sourceLen bytes of data using the compress() or compress2() functions. If successful, the value returned shall be an upper bound for the size of buffer required to compress sourceLen bytes of data, using the parameters stored in stream, in a single call to compress() or compress2(). Return Value The compressBound() shall return a value representing the upper bound of an array to allocate to hold the compressed data in a single call to compress() or compress2(). This function may return a conservative value that may be larger than sourceLen. Errors None defined. crc32 Name crc32 -- Compute CRC-32 Checksum Synopsis #include uLong crc32(uLong crc, const Bytef * buf, uInt len); Description The crc32() function shall compute a running Cyclic Redundancy Check checksum, as defined in ITU-T V.42. On entry, crc is the previous value for the checksum, and buf shall point to an array of len bytes of data to be added to this checksum. The crc32() function shall return the new checksum. If buf is NULL (or Z_NULL), crc32() shall return the initial checksum. Return Value The crc32() function shall return the new checksum value. Errors None defined. Application Usage (informative) The following code fragment demonstrates typical usage of the crc32() function: uLong crc = crc32(0L, Z_NULL, 0); while (read_buffer(buffer, length) != EOF) { crc = crc32(crc, buffer, length); } if (crc != original_crc) error(); deflate Name deflate -- compress data Synopsis #include int deflate(z_streamp stream, int flush); Description The deflate() function shall attempt to compress data until either the input buffer is empty or the output buffer is full. The stream references a z_stream structure. Before the first call to deflate(), this structure should have been initialized by a call to deflateInit2_(). Note: deflateInit2_() is only in the binary standard; source level applications should initialize stream via a call to deflateInit() or deflateInit2(). In addition, the stream input and output buffers should have been initialized as follows: next_in should point to the data to be compressed. avail_in should contain the number of bytes of data in the buffer referenced by next_in. next_out should point to a buffer where compressed data may be placed. avail_out should contain the size in bytes of the buffer referenced by next_out The deflate() function shall perform one or both of the following actions: 1. Compress input data from next_in and update next_in, avail_in and total_in to reflect the data that has been compressed. 2. Fill the output buffer referenced by next_out, and update next_out, avail_out and total_out to reflect the compressed data that has been placed there. If flush is not Z_NO_FLUSH, and avail_out indicates that there is still space in output buffer, this action shall always occur (see below for further details). The deflate() function shall return when either avail_in reaches zero (indicating that all the input data has been compressed), or avail_out reaches zero (indicating that the output buffer is full). On success, the deflate() function shall set the adler field of the stream to the adler32() checksum of all the input data compressed so far (represented by total_in). If the deflate() function shall attempt to determine the type of input data, and set field data_type in stream to Z_ASCII if the majority of the data bytes fall within the ASCII (ISO 646) printable character range. Otherwise, it shall set data_type to Z_BINARY. This data type is informational only, and does not affect the compression algorithm. Note: Future versions of the LSB may remove this requirement, since it is based on an outdated character set that does not support Internationalization, and does not affect the algorithm. It is included for information only at this release. Applications should not depend on this field. Flush Operation The parameter flush determines when compressed bits are added to the output buffer in next_out. If flush is Z_NO_FLUSH, deflate() may return with some data pending output, and not yet added to the output buffer. If flush is Z_SYNC_FLUSH, deflate() shall flush all pending output to next_out and align the output to a byte boundary. A synchronization point is generated in the output. If flush is Z_FULL_FLUSH, all output shall be flushed, as for Z_SYNC_FLUSH, and the compression state shall be reset. A synchronization point is generated in the output. Rationale: Z_SYNC_FLUSH is intended to ensure that the compressed data contains all the data compressed so far, and allows a decompressor to reconstruct all of the input data. Z_FULL_FLUSH allows decompression to restart from this point if the previous compressed data has been lost or damaged. Flushing is likely to degrade the performance of the compression system, and should only be used where necessary. If flush is set to Z_FINISH, all pending input shall be processed and deflate() shall return with Z_STREAM_END if there is sufficient space in the output buffer at next_out, as indicated by avail_out. If deflate() is called with flush set to Z_FINISH and there is insufficient space to store the compressed data, and no other error has occurred during compression, deflate() shall return Z_OK, and the application should call deflate() again with flush unchanged, and having updated next_out and avail_out. If all the compression is to be done in a single step, deflate() may be called with flush set to Z_FINISH immediately after the stream has been initialized if avail_out is set to at least the value returned by deflateBound(). Return Value On success, deflate() shall return Z_OK, unless flush was set to Z_FINISH and there was sufficient space in the output buffer to compress all of the input data. In this case, deflate() shall return Z_STREAM_END. On error, deflate() shall return a value to indicate the error. Note: If deflate() returns Z_OK and has set avail_out to zero, the function should be called again with the same value for flush, and with updated next_out and avail_out until deflate() returns with Z_OK (or Z_STREAM_END if flush is set to Z_FINISH) and a non-zero avail_out. Errors On error, deflate() shall return a value as described below, and set the msg field of stream to point to a string describing the error: Z_BUF_ERROR No progress is possible; either avail_in or avail_out was zero. Z_MEM_ERROR Insufficient memory. Z_STREAM_ERROR The state (as represented in stream) is inconsistent, or stream was NULL. deflateBound Name deflateBound -- compute compressed data size Synopsis #include int deflateBound(z_streamp stream, uLong sourceLen); Description The deflateBound() function shall estimate the size of buffer required to compress sourceLen bytes of data. If successful, the value returned shall be an upper bound for the size of buffer required to compress sourceLen bytes of data, using the parameters stored in stream, in a single call to deflate() with flush set to Z_FINISH. On entry, stream should have been initialized via a call to deflateInit_() or deflateInit2_(). Return Value The deflateBound() shall return a value representing the upper bound of an array to allocate to hold the compressed data in a single call to deflate(). If the stream is not correctly initialized, or is NULL, then deflateBound() may return a conservative value that may be larger than sourceLen. Errors None defined. deflateCopy Name deflateCopy -- copy compression stream Synopsis #include int deflateCopy(z_streamp dest, z_streamp source); Description The deflateCopy() function shall copy the compression state information in source to the uninitialized z_stream structure referenced by dest. On successful return, dest will be an exact copy of the stream referenced by source. The input and output buffer pointers in next_in and next_out will reference the same data. Return Value On success, deflateCopy() shall return Z_OK. Otherwise it shall return a value less than zero to indicate the error. Errors On error, deflateCopy() shall return a value as described below: Z_STREAM_ERROR The state in source is inconsistent, or either source or dest was NULL. Z_MEM_ERROR Insufficient memory available. Application Usage (informative) This function can be useful when several compression strategies will be tried, for example when there are several ways of pre-processing the input data with a filter. The streams that will be discarded should then be freed by calling deflateEnd(). Note that deflateCopy() duplicates the internal compression state which can be quite large, so this strategy may be slow and can consume lots of memory. deflateEnd Name deflateEnd -- free compression stream state Synopsis #include int deflateEnd(z_streamp stream); Description The deflateEnd() function shall free all allocated state information referenced by stream. All pending output is discarded, and unprocessed input is ignored. Return Value On success, deflateEnd() shall return Z_OK, or Z_DATA_ERROR if there was pending output discarded or input unprocessed. Otherwise it shall return Z_STREAM_ERROR to indicate the error. Errors On error, deflateEnd() shall return Z_STREAM_ERROR. The following conditions shall be treated as an error: * The state in stream is inconsistent or inappropriate. * stream is NULL. deflateInit2_ Name deflateInit2_ -- initialize compression system Synopsis #include int deflateInit2_ (z_streamp strm, int level, int method, int windowBits, int memLevel, int strategy, char * version, int stream_size); Description The deflateInit2_() function shall initialize the compression system. On entry, strm shall refer to a user supplied z_stream object (a z_stream_s structure). The following fields shall be set on entry: zalloc a pointer to an alloc_func function, used to allocate state information. If this is NULL, a default allocation function will be used. zfree a pointer to a free_func function, used to free memory allocated by the zalloc function. If this is NULL a default free function will be used. opaque If alloc_func is not NULL, opaque is a user supplied pointer to data that will be passed to the alloc_func and free_func functions. If the version requested is not compatible with the version implemented, or if the size of the z_stream_s structure provided in stream_size does not match the size in the library implementation, deflateInit2_() shall fail, and return Z_VERSION_ERROR. The level supplied shall be a value between 0 and 9, or the value Z_DEFAULT_COMPRESSION. A level of 1 requests the highest speed, while a level of 9 requests the highest compression. A level of 0 indicates that no compression should be used, and the output shall be the same as the input. The method selects the compression algorithm to use. LSB conforming implementation shall support the Z_DEFLATED method, and may support other implementation defined methods. The windowBits parameter shall be a base 2 logarithm of the window size to use, and shall be a value between 8 and 15. A smaller value will use less memory, but will result in a poorer compression ratio, while a higher value will give better compression but utilize more memory. The memLevel parameter specifies how much memory to use for the internal state. The value of memLevel shall be between 1 and MAX_MEM_LEVEL. Smaller values use less memory but are slower, while higher values use more memory to gain compression speed. The strategy parameter selects the compression strategy to use: Z_DEFAULT_STRATEGY use the system default compression strategy. Z_DEFAULT_STRATEGY is particularly appropriate for text data. Z_FILTERED use a compression strategy tuned for data consisting largely of small values with a fairly random distribution. Z_FILTERED uses more Huffman encoding and less string matching than Z_DEFAULT_STRATEGY. Z_HUFFMAN_ONLY force Huffman encoding only, with no string match. The deflateInit2_() function is not in the source standard; it is only in the binary standard. Source applications should use the deflateInit2() macro. Return Value On success, the deflateInit2_() function shall return Z_OK. Otherwise, deflateInit2_() shall return a value as described below to indicate the error. Errors On error, deflateInit2_() shall return one of the following error indicators: Z_STREAM_ERROR Invalid parameter. Z_MEM_ERROR Insufficient memory available. Z_VERSION_ERROR The version requested is not compatible with the library version, or the z_stream size differs from that used by the library. In addition, the msg field of the strm may be set to an error message. deflateInit_ Name deflateInit_ -- initialize compression system Synopsis #include int deflateInit_(z_streamp stream, int level, const char * version, int stream_size); Description The deflateInit_() function shall initialize the compression system. On entry, stream shall refer to a user supplied z_stream object (a z_stream_s structure). The following fields shall be set on entry: zalloc a pointer to an alloc_func function, used to allocate state information. If this is NULL, a default allocation function will be used. zfree a pointer to a free_func function, used to free memory allocated by the zalloc function. If this is NULL a default free function will be used. opaque If alloc_func is not NULL, opaque is a user supplied pointer to data that will be passed to the alloc_func and free_func functions. If the version requested is not compatible with the version implemented, or if the size of the z_stream_s structure provided in stream_size does not match the size in the library implementation, deflateInit_() shall fail, and return Z_VERSION_ERROR. The level supplied shall be a value between 0 and 9, or the value Z_DEFAULT_COMPRESSION. A level of 1 requests the highest speed, while a level of 9 requests the highest compression. A level of 0 indicates that no compression should be used, and the output shall be the same as the input. The deflateInit_() function is not in the source standard; it is only in the binary standard. Source applications should use the deflateInit() macro. The deflateInit_() function is equivalent to deflateInit2_(stream, level, Z_DEFLATED, MAX_WBITS, DEF_MEM_LEVEL, Z_DEFAULT_STRATEGY, version, stream_size); Return Value On success, the deflateInit_() function shall return Z_OK. Otherwise, deflateInit_() shall return a value as described below to indicate the error. Errors On error, deflateInit_() shall return one of the following error indicators: Z_STREAM_ERROR Invalid parameter. Z_MEM_ERROR Insufficient memory available. Z_VERSION_ERROR The version requested is not compatible with the library version, or the z_stream size differs from that used by the library. In addition, the msg field of the stream may be set to an error message. deflateParams Name deflateParams -- set compression parameters Synopsis #include int deflateParams(z_streamp stream, int level, int strategy); Description The deflateParams() function shall dynamically alter the compression parameters for the compression stream object stream. On entry, stream shall refer to a user supplied z_stream object (a z_stream_s structure), already initialized via a call to deflateInit_() or deflateInit2_(). The level supplied shall be a value between 0 and 9, or the value Z_DEFAULT_COMPRESSION. A level of 1 requests the highest speed, while a level of 9 requests the highest compression. A level of 0 indicates that no compression should be used, and the output shall be the same as the input. If the compression level is altered by deflateParams(), and some data has already been compressed with this stream (i.e. total_in is not zero), and the new level requires a different underlying compression method, then stream shall be flushed by a call to deflate(). The strategy parameter selects the compression strategy to use: Z_DEFAULT_STRATEGY use the system default compression strategy. Z_DEFAULT_STRATEGY is particularly appropriate for text data. Z_FILTERED use a compression strategy tuned for data consisting largely of small values with a fairly random distribution. Z_FILTERED uses more Huffman encoding and less string matching than Z_DEFAULT_STRATEGY. Z_HUFFMAN_ONLY force Huffman encoding only, with no string match. Return Value On success, the deflateParams() function shall return Z_OK. Otherwise, deflateParams() shall return a value as described below to indicate the error. Errors On error, deflateParams() shall return one of the following error indicators: Z_STREAM_ERROR Invalid parameter. Z_MEM_ERROR Insufficient memory available. Z_BUF_ERROR Insufficient space in stream to flush the current output. In addition, the msg field of the strm may be set to an error message. Application Usage (Informative) Applications should ensure that the stream is flushed, e.g. by a call to deflate(stream, Z_SYNC_FLUSH) before calling deflateParams(), or ensure that there is sufficient space in next_out (as identified by avail_out) to ensure that all pending output and all uncompressed input can be flushed in a single call to deflate(). Rationale: Although the deflateParams() function should flush pending output and compress all pending input, the result is unspecified if there is insufficient space in the output buffer. Applications should only call deflateParams() when the stream is effectively empty (flushed). The deflateParams() can be used to switch between compression and straight copy of the input data, or to switch to a different kind of input data requiring a different strategy. deflateReset Name deflateReset -- reset compression stream state Synopsis #include int deflateReset(z_streamp stream); Description The deflateReset() function shall reset all state associated with stream. All pending output shall be discarded, and the counts of processed bytes (total_in and total_out) shall be reset to zero. Return Value On success, deflateReset() shall return Z_OK. Otherwise it shall return Z_STREAM_ERROR to indicate the error. Errors On error, deflateReset() shall return Z_STREAM_ERROR. The following conditions shall be treated as an error: * The state in stream is inconsistent or inappropriate. * stream is NULL. deflateSetDictionary Name deflateSetDictionary -- initialize compression dictionary Synopsis #include int deflateSetDictionary(z_streamp stream, const Bytef * dictionary, uInt dictlen); Description The deflateSetDictionary() function shall initialize the compression dictionary associated with stream using the dictlen bytes referenced by dictionary. The implementation may silently use a subset of the provided dictionary if the dictionary cannot fit in the current window associated with stream (see deflateInit2_()). The application should ensure that the dictionary is sorted such that the most commonly used strings occur at the end of the dictionary. If the dictionary is successfully set, the Adler32 checksum of the entire provided dictionary shall be stored in the adler member of stream. This value may be used by the decompression system to select the correct dictionary. The compression and decompression systems must use the same dictionary. stream shall reference an initialized compression stream, with total_in zero (i.e. no data has been compressed since the stream was initialized). Return Value On success, deflateSetDictionary() shall return Z_OK. Otherwise it shall return Z_STREAM_ERROR to indicate an error. Errors On error, deflateSetDictionary() shall return a value as described below: Z_STREAM_ERROR The state in stream is inconsistent, or stream was NULL. Application Usage (informative) The application should provide a dictionary consisting of strings {{{ed note: do we really mean "strings"? Null terminated?}}} that are likely to be encountered in the data to be compressed. The application should ensure that the dictionary is sorted such that the most commonly used strings occur at the end of the dictionary. The use of a dictionary is optional; however if the data to be compressed is relatively short and has a predictable structure, the use of a dictionary can substantially improve the compression ratio. get_crc_table Name get_crc_table -- generate a table for crc calculations Synopsis #include const uLongf * get_crc_table(void); Description Generate tables for a byte-wise 32-bit CRC calculation based on the polynomial: x^32+x^26+x^23+x^22+x^16+x^12+x^11+x^10+x^8+x^7+x^5+x^4+x^2+x+ 1 In a multi-threaded application, get_crc_table() should be called by one thread to initialize the tables before any other thread calls any libz function. Return Value The get_crc_table() function shall return a pointer to the first of a set of tables used internally to calculate CRC-32 values (see crc32()). Errors None defined. gzclose Name gzclose -- close a compressed file stream Synopsis #include int gzclose (gzFile file ); Description The gzclose() function shall close the compressed file stream file. If file was open for writing, gzclose() shall first flush any pending output. Any state information allocated shall be freed. Return Value On success, gzclose() shall return Z_OK. Otherwise, gzclose() shall return an error value as described below. Errors On error, gzclose() may set the global variable errno to indicate the error. The gzclose() shall return a value other than Z_OK on error. Z_STREAM_ERROR file was NULL (or Z_NULL), or did not refer to an open compressed file stream. Z_ERRNO An error occurred in the underlying base libraries, and the application should check errno for further information. Z_BUF_ERROR no compression progress is possible during buffer flush (see deflate()). gzdopen Name gzdopen -- open a compressed file Synopsis #include gzFile gzdopen ( int fd, const char *mode ); Description The gzdopen() function shall attempt to associate the open file referenced by fd with a gzFile object. The mode argument is based on that of fopen(), but the mode parameter may also contain the following characters: digit set the compression level to digit. A low value (e.g. 1) means high speed, while a high value (e.g. 9) means high compression. A compression level of 0 (zero) means no compression. See defaultInit2_() for further details. [fhR] set the compression strategy to [fhR]. The letter f corresponds to filtered data, the letter h corresponds to Huffman only compression, and the letter R corresponds to Run Length Encoding. See defaultInit2_() for further details. If fd refers to an uncompressed file, and mode refers to a read mode, gzdopen() shall attempt to open the file and return a gzFile object suitable for reading directly from the file without any decompression. If mode is NULL, or if mode does not contain one of r, w, or a, gzdopen() shall return Z_NULL, and need not set any other error condition. Example gzdopen(fileno(stdin), "r"); Attempt to associate the standard input with a gzFile object. Return Value On success, gzdopen() shall return a gzFile object. On failure, gzdopen() shall return Z_NULL and may set errno accordingly. Note: At version 1.2.2, zlib does not set errno for several error conditions. Applications may not be able to determine the cause of an error. Errors On error, gzdopen() may set the global variable errno to indicate the error. gzeof Name gzeof -- check for end-of-file on a compressed file stream Synopsis #include int gzeof (gzFile file ); Description The gzeof() function shall test the compressed file stream file for end of file. Return Value If file was open for reading and end of file has been reached, gzeof() shall return 1. Otherwise, gzeof() shall return 0. Errors None defined. gzerror Name gzerror -- decode an error on a compressed file stream Synopsis #include const char * gzerror (gzFile file, int * errnum); Description The gzerror() function shall return a string describing the last error to have occurred associated with the open compressed file stream referred to by file. It shall also set the location referenced by errnum to an integer value that further identifies the error. Return Value The gzerror() function shall return a string that describes the last error associated with the given file compressed file stream. This string shall have the format "%s: %s", with the name of the file, followed by a colon, a space, and the description of the error. If the compressed file stream was opened by a call to gzdopen(), the format of the filename is unspecified. Rationale: Although in all current implementations of libz file descriptors are named "", the code suggests that this is for debugging purposes only, and may change in a future release. It is unspecified if the string returned is determined by the setting of the LC_MESSAGES category in the current locale. Errors None defined. gzflush Name gzflush -- flush a compressed file stream Synopsis #include int gzflush(gzFile file, int flush); Description The gzflush() function shall flush pending output to the compressed file stream identified by file, which must be open for writing. Flush Operation The parameter flush determines which compressed bits are added to the output file. If flush is Z_NO_FLUSH, gzflush() may return with some data pending output, and not yet written to the file. If flush is Z_SYNC_FLUSH, gzflush() shall flush all pending output to file and align the output to a byte boundary. There may still be data pending compression that is not flushed. If flush is Z_FULL_FLUSH, all output shall be flushed, as for Z_SYNC_FLUSH, and the compression state shall be reset. There may still be data pending compression that is not flushed. Rationale: Z_SYNC_FLUSH is intended to ensure that the compressed data contains all the data compressed so far, and allows a decompressor to reconstruct all of the input data. Z_FULL_FLUSH allows decompression to restart from this point if the previous compressed data has been lost or damaged. Flushing is likely to degrade the performance of the compression system, and should only be used where necessary. If flush is set to Z_FINISH, all pending uncompressed data shall be compressed and all output shall be flushed. Return Value On success, gzflush() shall return the value Z_OK. Otherwise gzflush() shall return a value to indicate the error, and may set the error number associated with the compressed file stream file. Note: If flush is set to Z_FINISH and the flush operation is successful, gzflush() will return Z_OK, but the compressed file stream error value may be set to Z_STREAM_END. Errors On error, gzwrite() shall return an error value, and may set the error number associated with the stream identified by file to indicate the error. Applications may use gzerror() to access this error value. Z_ERRNO An underlying base library function has indicated an error. The global variable errno may be examined for further information. Z_STREAM_ERROR The stream is invalid, is not open for writing, or is in an invalid state. Z_BUF_ERROR no compression progress is possible (see deflate()). Z_MEM_ERROR Insufficient memory available to compress. gzgetc Name gzgetc -- read a character from a compressed file Synopsis #include int gzgetc (gzFile file); Description The gzgetc() function shall read the next single character from the compressed file stream referenced by file, which shall have been opened in a read mode (see gzopen() and gzdopen()). Return Value On success, gzgetc() shall return the uncompressed character read, otherwise, on end of file or error, gzgetc() shall return -1. Errors On end of file or error, gzgetc() shall return -1. Further information can be found by calling gzerror() with a pointer to the compressed file stream. gzgets Name gzgets -- read a string from a compressed file Synopsis #include char * gzgets (gzFile file, char * buf, int len); Description The gzgets() function shall attempt to read data from the compressed file stream file, uncompressing it into buf until either len-1 bytes have been inserted into buf, or until a newline character has been uncompressed into buf. A null byte shall be appended to the uncompressed data. The file shall have been opened in for reading (see gzopen() and gzdopen()). Return Value On success, gzgets() shall return a pointer to buf. Otherwise, gzgets() shall return Z_NULL. Applications may examine the cause using gzerror(). Errors On error, gzgets() shall return Z_NULL. The following conditions shall always be treated as an error: file is NULL, or does not refer to a file open for reading; buf is NULL; len is less than or equal to zero. gzopen Name gzopen -- open a compressed file Synopsis #include gzFile gzopen (const char *path , const char *mode ); Description The gzopen() function shall open the compressed file named by path. The mode argument is based on that of fopen(), but the mode parameter may also contain the following characters: digit set the compression level to digit. A low value (e.g. 1) means high speed, while a high value (e.g. 9) means high compression. A compression level of 0 (zero) means no compression. See defaultInit2_() for further details. [fhR] set the compression strategy to [fhR]. The letter f corresponds to filtered data, the letter h corresponds to Huffman only compression, and the letter R corresponds to Run Length Encoding. See defaultInit2_() for further details. If path refers to an uncompressed file, and mode refers to a read mode, gzopen() shall attempt to open the file and return a gzFile object suitable for reading directly from the file without any decompression. If path or mode is NULL, or if mode does not contain one of r, w, or a, gzopen() shall return Z_NULL, and need not set any other error condition. The gzFile object is also referred to as a compressed file stream. Example gzopen("file.gz", "w6h"); Attempt to create a new compressed file, file.gz, at compression level 6 using Huffman only compression. Return Value On success, gzopen() shall return a gzFile object (also known as a compressed file stream). On failure, gzopen() shall return Z_NULL and may set errno accordingly. Note: At version 1.2.2, zlib does not set errno for several error conditions. Applications may not be able to determine the cause of an error. Errors On error, gzopen() may set the global variable errno to indicate the error. gzprintf Name gzprintf -- format data and compress Synopsis #include int gzprintf (gzFile file, const char * fmt, ...); Description The gzprintf() function shall format data as for fprintf(), and write the resulting string to the compressed file stream file. Return Value The gzprintf() function shall return the number of uncompressed bytes actually written, or a value less than or equal to 0 in the event of an error. Errors If file is NULL, or refers to a compressed file stream that has not been opened for writing, gzprintf() shall return Z_STREAM_ERROR. Otherwise, errors are as for gzwrite(). gzputc Name gzputc -- write character to a compressed file Synopsis #include int gzputc (gzFile file, int c); Description The gzputc() function shall write the single character c, converted from integer to unsigned character, to the compressed file referenced by file, which shall have been opened in a write mode (see gzopen() and gzdopen()). Return Value On success, gzputc() shall return the value written, otherwise gzputc() shall return -1. Errors On error, gzputc() shall return -1. gzputs Name gzputs -- string write to a compressed file Synopsis #include int gzputs (gzFile file, const char * s); Description The gzputs() function shall write the null terminated string s to the compressed file referenced by file, which shall have been opened in a write mode (see gzopen() and gzdopen()). The terminating null character shall not be written. The gzputs() function shall return the number of uncompressed bytes actually written. Return Value On success, gzputs() shall return the number of uncompressed bytes actually written to file. On error gzputs() shall return a value less than or equal to 0. Applications may examine the cause using gzerror(). Errors On error, gzputs() shall set the error number associated with the stream identified by file to indicate the error. Applications should use gzerror() to access this error value. If file is NULL, gzputs() shall return Z_STREAM_ERR. Z_ERRNO An underlying base library function has indicated an error. The global variable errno may be examined for further information. Z_STREAM_ERROR The stream is invalid, is not open for writing, or is in an invalid state. Z_BUF_ERROR no compression progress is possible (see deflate()). Z_MEM_ERROR Insufficient memory available to compress. gzread Name gzread -- read from a compressed file Synopsis #include int gzread (gzFile file, voidp buf, unsigned int len); Description The gzread() function shall read data from the compressed file referenced by file, which shall have been opened in a read mode (see gzopen() and gzdopen()). The gzread() function shall read data from file, and uncompress it into buf. At most, len bytes of uncompressed data shall be copied to buf. If the file is not compressed, gzread() shall simply copy data from file to buf without alteration. Return Value On success, gzread() shall return the number of bytes decompressed into buf. If gzread() returns 0, either the end-of-file has been reached or an underlying read error has occurred. Applications should use gzerror() or gzeof() to determine which occurred. On other errors, gzread() shall return a value less than 0 and and applications may examine the cause using gzerror(). Errors On error, gzread() shall set the error number associated with the stream identified by file to indicate the error. Applications should use gzerror() to access this error value. Z_ERRNO An underlying base library function has indicated an error. The global variable errno may be examined for further information. Z_STREAM_END End of file has been reached on input. Z_DATA_ERROR A CRC error occurred when reading data; the file is corrupt. Z_STREAM_ERROR The stream is invalid, or is in an invalid state. Z_NEED_DICT A dictionary is needed (see inflateSetDictionary()). Z_MEM_ERROR Insufficient memory available to decompress. gzrewind Name gzrewind -- reset the file-position indicator on a compressed file stream Synopsis #include int gzrewind(gzFile file); Description The gzrewind() function shall set the starting position for the next read on compressed file stream file to the beginning of file. file must be open for reading. gzrewind() is equivalent to (int)gzseek(file, 0L, SEEK_SET) . Return Value On success, gzrewind() shall return 0. On error, gzrewind() shall return -1, and may set the error value for file accordingly. Errors On error, gzrewind() shall return -1, indicating that file is NULL, or does not represent an open compressed file stream, or represents a compressed file stream that is open for writing and is not currently at the beginning of file. gzseek Name gzseek -- reposition a file-position indicator in a compressed file stream Synopsis #include z_off_t gzseek(gzFile file, z_off_t offset, int whence); Description The gzseek() function shall set the file-position indicator for the compressed file stream file. The file-position indicator controls where the next read or write operation on the compressed file stream shall take place. The offset indicates a byte offset in the uncompressed data. The whence parameter may be one of: SEEK_SET the offset is relative to the start of the uncompressed data. SEEK_CUR the offset is relative to the current positition in the uncompressed data. Note: The value SEEK_END need not be supported. If the file is open for writing, the new offset must be greater than or equal to the current offset. In this case, gzseek() shall compress a sequence of null bytes to fill the gap from the previous offset to the new offset. Return Value On success, gzseek() shall return the resulting offset in the file expressed as a byte position in the uncompressed data stream. On error, gzseek() shall return -1, and may set the error value for file accordingly. Errors On error, gzseek() shall return -1. The following conditions shall always result in an error: * file is NULL * file does not represent an open compressed file stream. * file refers to a compressed file stream that is open for writing, and the newly computed offset is less than the current offset. * The newly computed offset is less than zero. * whence is not one of the supported values. Application Usage (informative) If file is open for reading, the implementation may still need to uncompress all of the data up to the new offset. As a result, gzseek() may be extremely slow in some circumstances. gzsetparams Name gzsetparams -- dynamically set compression parameters Synopsis #include int gzsetparams (gzFile file, int level, int strategy); Description The gzsetparams() function shall set the compression level and compression strategy on the compressed file stream referenced by file. The compressed file stream shall have been opened in a write mode. The level and strategy are as defined in deflateInit2_. If there is any data pending writing, it shall be flushed before the parameters are updated. Return Value On success, the gzsetparams() function shall return Z_OK. Errors On error, gzsetparams() shall return one of the following error indications: Z_STREAM_ERROR Invalid parameter, or file not open for writing. Z_BUF_ERROR An internal inconsistency was detected while flushing the previous buffer. gztell Name gztell -- find position on a compressed file stream Synopsis #include z_off_t gztell (gzFile file ); Description The gztell() function shall return the starting position for the next read or write operation on compressed file stream file. This position represents the number of bytes from the beginning of file in the uncompressed data. gztell() is equivalent to gzseek(file, 0L, SEEK_SET) . Return Value gztell() shall return the current offset in the file expressed as a byte position in the uncompressed data stream. On error, gztell() shall return -1, and may set the error value for file accordingly. Errors On error, gztell() shall return -1, indicating that file is NULL, or does not represent an open compressed file stream. gzwrite Name gzwrite -- write to a compressed file Synopsis #include int gzwrite (gzFile file, voidpc buf, unsigned int len); Description The gzwrite() function shall write data to the compressed file referenced by file, which shall have been opened in a write mode (see gzopen() and gzdopen()). On entry, buf shall point to a buffer containing lenbytes of uncompressed data. The gzwrite() function shall compress this data and write it to file. The gzwrite() function shall return the number of uncompressed bytes actually written. Return Value On success, gzwrite() shall return the number of uncompressed bytes actually written to file. On error gzwrite() shall return a value less than or equal to 0. Applications may examine the cause using gzerror(). Errors On error, gzwrite() shall set the error number associated with the stream identified by file to indicate the error. Applications should use gzerror() to access this error value. Z_ERRNO An underlying base library function has indicated an error. The global variable errno may be examined for further information. Z_STREAM_ERROR The stream is invalid, is not open for writing, or is in an invalid state. Z_BUF_ERROR no compression progress is possible (see deflate()). Z_MEM_ERROR Insufficient memory available to compress. inflate Name inflate -- decompress data Synopsis #include int inflate(z_streamp stream, int flush); Description The inflate() function shall attempt to decompress data until either the input buffer is empty or the output buffer is full. The stream references a z_stream structure. Before the first call to inflate(), this structure should have been initialized by a call to inflateInit2_(). Note: inflateInit2_() is only in the binary standard; source level applications should initialize stream via a call to inflateInit() or inflateInit2(). In addition, the stream input and output buffers should have been initialized as follows: next_in should point to the data to be decompressed. avail_in should contain the number of bytes of data in the buffer referenced by next_in. next_out should point to a buffer where decompressed data may be placed. avail_out should contain the size in bytes of the buffer referenced by next_out The inflate() function shall perform one or both of the following actions: 1. Decompress input data from next_in and update next_in, avail_in and total_in to reflect the data that has been decompressed. 2. Fill the output buffer referenced by next_out, and update next_out, avail_out, and total_out to reflect the decompressed data that has been placed there. If flush is not Z_NO_FLUSH, and avail_out indicates that there is still space in output buffer, this action shall always occur (see below for further details). The inflate() function shall return when either avail_in reaches zero (indicating that all the input data has been compressed), or avail_out reaches zero (indicating that the output buffer is full). On success, the inflate() function shall set the adler field of the stream to the Adler-32 checksum of all the input data compressed so far (represented by total_in). Flush Operation The parameter flush determines when uncompressed bytes are added to the output buffer in next_out. If flush is Z_NO_FLUSH, inflate() may return with some data pending output, and not yet added to the output buffer. If flush is Z_SYNC_FLUSH, inflate() shall flush all pending output to next_out, and update next_out and avail_out accordingly. If flush is set to Z_BLOCK, inflate() shall stop adding data to the output buffer if and when the next compressed block boundary is reached (see RFC 1951: DEFLATE Compressed Data Format Specification). If flush is set to Z_FINISH, all of the compressed input shall be decompressed and added to the output. If there is insufficient output space (i.e. the compressed input data uncompresses to more than avail_out bytes), then inflate() shall fail and return Z_BUF_ERROR. Return Value On success, inflate() shall return Z_OK if decompression progress has been made, or Z_STREAM_END if all of the input data has been decompressed and there was sufficient space in the output buffer to store the uncompressed result. On error, inflate() shall return a value to indicate the error. Note: If inflate() returns Z_OK and has set avail_out to zero, the function should be called again with the same value for flush, and with updated next_out and avail_out until inflate() returns with either Z_OK or Z_STREAM_END and a non-zero avail_out. On success, inflate() shall set the adler to the Adler-32 checksum of the output produced so far (i.e. total_out bytes). Errors On error, inflate() shall return a value as described below, and may set the msg field of stream to point to a string describing the error: Z_BUF_ERROR No progress is possible; either avail_in or avail_out was zero. Z_MEM_ERROR Insufficient memory. Z_STREAM_ERROR The state (as represented in stream) is inconsistent, or stream was NULL. Z_NEED_DICT A preset dictionary is required. The adler field shall be set to the Adler-32 checksum of the dictionary chosen by the compressor. inflateEnd Name inflateEnd -- free decompression stream state Synopsis #include int inflateEnd(z_streamp stream); Description The inflateEnd() function shall free all allocated state information referenced by stream. All pending output is discarded, and unprocessed input is ignored. Return Value On success, inflateEnd() shall return Z_OK. Otherwise it shall return Z_STREAM_ERROR to indicate the error. Errors On error, inflateEnd() shall return Z_STREAM_ERROR. The following conditions shall be treated as an error: * The state in stream is inconsistent. * stream is NULL. * The zfree function pointer is NULL. inflateInit2_ Name inflateInit2_ -- initialize decompression system Synopsis #include int inflateInit2_ (z_streamp strm, int windowBits, char * version, int stream_size); Description The inflateInit2_() function shall initialize the decompression system. On entry, strm shall refer to a user supplied z_stream object (a z_stream_s structure). The following fields shall be set on entry: zalloc a pointer to an alloc_func function, used to allocate state information. If this is NULL, a default allocation function will be used. zfree a pointer to a free_func function, used to free memory allocated by the zalloc function. If this is NULL a default free function will be used. opaque If alloc_func is not NULL, opaque is a user supplied pointer to data that will be passed to the alloc_func and free_func functions. If the version requested is not compatible with the version implemented, or if the size of the z_stream_s structure provided in stream_size does not match the size in the library implementation, inflateInit2_() shall fail, and return Z_VERSION_ERROR. The windowBits parameter shall be a base 2 logarithm of the maximum window size to use, and shall be a value between 8 and 15. If the input data was compressed with a larger window size, subsequent attempts to decompress this data will fail with Z_DATA_ERROR, rather than try to allocate a larger window. The inflateInit2_() function is not in the source standard; it is only in the binary standard. Source applications should use the inflateInit2() macro. Return Value On success, the inflateInit2_() function shall return Z_OK. Otherwise, inflateInit2_() shall return a value as described below to indicate the error. Errors On error, inflateInit2_() shall return one of the following error indicators: Z_STREAM_ERROR Invalid parameter. Z_MEM_ERROR Insufficient memory available. Z_VERSION_ERROR The version requested is not compatible with the library version, or the z_stream size differs from that used by the library. In addition, the msg field of the strm may be set to an error message. inflateInit_ Name inflateInit_ -- initialize decompression system Synopsis #include int inflateInit_(z_streamp stream, const char * version, int stream_size); Description The inflateInit_() function shall initialize the decompression system. On entry, stream shall refer to a user supplied z_stream object (a z_stream_s structure). The following fields shall be set on entry: zalloc a pointer to an alloc_func function, used to allocate state information. If this is NULL, a default allocation function will be used. zfree a pointer to a free_func function, used to free memory allocated by the zalloc function. If this is NULL a default free function will be used. opaque If alloc_func is not NULL, opaque is a user supplied pointer to data that will be passed to the alloc_func and free_func functions. If the version requested is not compatible with the version implemented, or if the size of the z_stream_s structure provided in stream_size does not match the size in the library implementation, inflateInit_() shall fail, and return Z_VERSION_ERROR. The inflateInit_() function is not in the source standard; it is only in the binary standard. Source applications should use the inflateInit() macro. The inflateInit_() shall be equivalent to inflateInit2_(strm, DEF_WBITS, version, stream_size); Return Value On success, the inflateInit_() function shall return Z_OK. Otherwise, inflateInit_() shall return a value as described below to indicate the error. Errors On error, inflateInit_() shall return one of the following error indicators: Z_STREAM_ERROR Invalid parameter. Z_MEM_ERROR Insufficient memory available. Z_VERSION_ERROR The version requested is not compatible with the library version, or the z_stream size differs from that used by the library. In addition, the msg field of the strm may be set to an error message. inflateReset Name inflateReset -- reset decompression stream state Synopsis #include int inflateReset(z_streamp stream); Description The inflateReset() function shall reset all state associated with stream. All pending output shall be discarded, and the counts of processed bytes (total_in and total_out) shall be reset to zero. Return Value On success, inflateReset() shall return Z_OK. Otherwise it shall return Z_STREAM_ERROR to indicate the error. Errors On error, inflateReset() shall return Z_STREAM_ERROR. The following conditions shall be treated as an error: * The state in stream is inconsistent or inappropriate. * stream is NULL. inflateSetDictionary Name inflateSetDictionary -- initialize decompression dictionary Synopsis #include int inflateSetDictionary(z_streamp stream, const Bytef * dictionary, uInt dictlen); Description The inflateSetDictionary() function shall initialize the decompression dictionary associated with stream using the dictlen bytes referenced by dictionary. The inflateSetDictionary() function should be called immediately after a call to inflate() has failed with return value Z_NEED_DICT. The dictionary must have the same Adler-32 checksum as the dictionary used for the compression (see deflateSetDictionary()). stream shall reference an initialized decompression stream, with total_in zero (i.e. no data has been decompressed since the stream was initialized). Return Value On success, inflateSetDictionary() shall return Z_OK. Otherwise it shall return a value as indicated below. Errors On error, inflateSetDictionary() shall return a value as described below: Z_STREAM_ERROR The state in stream is inconsistent, or stream was NULL. Z_DATA_ERROR The Adler-32 checksum of the supplied dictionary does not match that used for the compression. Application Usage (informative) The application should provide a dictionary consisting of strings {{{ed note: do we really mean "strings"? Null terminated?}}} that are likely to be encountered in the data to be compressed. The application should ensure that the dictionary is sorted such that the most commonly used strings occur at the end of the dictionary. The use of a dictionary is optional; however if the data to be compressed is relatively short and has a predictable structure, the use of a dictionary can substantially improve the compression ratio. inflateSync Name inflateSync -- advance compression stream to next sync point Synopsis #include int inflateSync(z_streamp stream); Description The inflateSync() function shall advance through the compressed data in stream, skipping any invalid compressed data, until the next full flush point is reached, or all input is exhausted. See the description for deflate() with flush level Z_FULL_FLUSH. No output is placed in next_out. Return Value On success, inflateSync() shall return Z_OK, and update the next_in,, avail_in, and, total_in fields of stream to reflect the number of bytes of compressed data that have been skipped. Otherwise, inflateSync() shall return a value as described below to indicate the error. Errors On error, inflateSync() shall return a value as described below: Z_STREAM_ERROR The state (as represented in stream) is inconsistent, or stream was NULL. Z_BUF_ERROR There is no data available to skip over. Z_DATA_ERROR No sync point was found. inflateSyncPoint Name inflateSyncPoint -- test for synchronization point Synopsis #include int inflateSyncPoint(z_streamp stream); Description The inflateSyncPoint() function shall return a non-zero calue if the compressed data stream referenced by stream is at a synchronization point. Return Value If the compressed data in stream is at a synchronization point (see deflate() with a flush level of Z_SYNC_FLUSH or Z_FULL_FLUSH), inflateSyncPoint() shall return a non-zero value, other than Z_STREAM_ERROR. Otherwise, if the stream is valid, inflateSyncPoint() shall return 0. If stream is invalid, or in an invalid state, inflateSyncPoint() shall return Z_STREAM_ERROR to indicate the error. Errors On error, inflateSyncPoint() shall return a value as described below: Z_STREAM_ERROR The state (as represented in stream) is inconsistent, or stream was NULL. uncompress Name uncompress -- uncompress data Synopsis #include int uncompress(Bytef * dest, uLongf * destLen, const Bytef * source, uLong sourceLen); Description The uncompress() function shall attempt to uncompress sourceLen bytes of data in the buffer source, placing the result in the buffer dest. On entry, destLen should point to a value describing the size of the dest buffer. The application should ensure that this value is large enough to hold the entire uncompressed data. Note: The LSB does not describe any mechanism by which a compressor can communicate the size required to the uncompressor. On successful exit, the variable referenced by destLen shall be updated to hold the length of uncompressed data in dest. Return Value On success, uncompress() shall return Z_OK. Otherwise, uncompress() shall return a value to indicate the error. Errors On error, uncompress() shall return a value as described below: Z_BUF_ERROR The buffer dest was not large enough to hold the uncompressed data. Z_MEM_ERROR Insufficient memory. Z_DATA_ERROR The compressed data (referenced by source) was corrupted. zError Name zError -- translate error number to string Synopsis #include const char * zError(int err); Description The zError() function shall return the string identifying the error associated with err. This allows for conversion from error code to string for functions such as compress() and uncompress(), that do not always set the string version of an error. Return Value The zError() function shall return a the string identifying the error associated with err, or NULL if err is not a valid error code. It is unspecified if the string returned is determined by the setting of the LC_MESSAGES category in the current locale. Errors None defined. zlibVersion Name zlibVersion -- discover library version at run time Synopsis #include const char * zlibVersion (void); Description The zlibVersion() function shall return the string identifying the interface version at the time the library was built. Applications should compare the value returned from zlibVersion() with the macro constant ZLIB_VERSION for compatibility. Return Value The zlibVersion() function shall return a the string identifying the version of the library currently implemented. Errors None defined. _________________________________________________________ 2.5.

Data Definitions for libncurses This section defines global identifiers and their values that are associated with interfaces contained in libncurses. These definitions are organized into groups that correspond to system headers. This convention is used as a convenience for the reader, and does not imply the existence of these headers, or their content. These definitions are intended to supplement those provided in the referenced underlying specifications. This specification uses ISO/IEC 9899 C Language as the reference programming language, and data definitions are specified in ISO C format. The C language is used here as a convenient notation. Using a C language description of these data objects does not preclude their use by other programming languages. _________________________________________________________ 2.6.1. curses.h #define ERR (-1) #define OK (0) #define ACS_RARROW (acs_map['+']) #define ACS_LARROW (acs_map[',']) #define ACS_UARROW (acs_map['-']) #define ACS_DARROW (acs_map['.']) #define ACS_BLOCK (acs_map['0']) #define ACS_CKBOARD (acs_map['a']) #define ACS_DEGREE (acs_map['f']) #define ACS_PLMINUS (acs_map['g']) #define ACS_BOARD (acs_map['h']) #define ACS_LANTERN (acs_map['i']) #define ACS_LRCORNER (acs_map['j']) #define ACS_URCORNER (acs_map['k']) #define ACS_ULCORNER (acs_map['l']) #define ACS_LLCORNER (acs_map['m']) #define ACS_PLUS (acs_map['n']) #define ACS_S1 (acs_map['o']) #define ACS_HLINE (acs_map['q']) #define ACS_S9 (acs_map['s']) #define ACS_LTEE (acs_map['t']) #define ACS_RTEE (acs_map['u']) #define ACS_BTEE (acs_map['v']) #define ACS_TTEE (acs_map['w']) #define ACS_VLINE (acs_map['x']) #define ACS_DIAMOND (acs_map['`']) #define ACS_BULLET (acs_map['~']) #define getmaxyx(win,y,x) (y=(win)?((win)->_maxy+1):ERR,x=(win)?( (win)->_maxx+1):ERR) #define getbegyx(win,y,x) (y=(win)?(win)->_begy:ERR,x=(win)?(win) ->_begx:ERR) #define getyx(win,y,x) (y=(win)?(win)->_cury:ERR,x=(win)?(win)->_curx: ERR) #define getparyx(win,y,x) (y=(win)?(win)->_pary:ERR,x=(win)?(win) ->_parx:ERR) #define WA_ALTCHARSET A_ALTCHARSET #define WA_ATTRIBUTES A_ATTRIBUTES #define WA_BLINK A_BLINK #define WA_BOLD A_BOLD #define WA_DIM A_DIM #define WA_HORIZONTAL A_HORIZONTAL #define WA_INVIS A_INVIS #define WA_LEFT A_LEFT #define WA_LOW A_LOW #define WA_NORMAL A_NORMAL #define WA_PROTECT A_PROTECT #define WA_REVERSE A_REVERSE #define WA_RIGHT A_RIGHT #define WA_STANDOUT A_STANDOUT #define WA_TOP A_TOP #define WA_UNDERLINE A_UNDERLINE #define WA_VERTICAL A_VERTICAL #define A_REVERSE NCURSES_BITS(1UL,10) #define COLOR_BLACK 0 #define COLOR_RED 1 #define COLOR_GREEN 2 #define COLOR_YELLOW 3 #define COLOR_BLUE 4 #define COLOR_MAGENTA 5 #define COLOR_CYAN 6 #define COLOR_WHITE 7 #define _SUBWIN 0x01 #define _ENDLINE 0x02 #define _FULLWIN 0x04 #define _ISPAD 0x10 #define _HASMOVED 0x20 typedef unsigned char bool;

Interfaces for libutil Table 2-6 defines the library name and shared object name for the libutil library Table 2-6. libutil Definition Library: libutil SONAME: libutil.so.1 The behavior of the interfaces in this library is specified by the following specifications: this specification _________________________________________________________ 2.7.1. Utility Functions _________________________________________________________ 2.7.1.1. Interfaces for Utility Functions An LSB conforming implementation shall provide the generic functions for Utility Functions specified in Table 2-7, with the full mandatory functionality as described in the referenced underlying specification. Table 2-7. libutil - Utility Functions Function Interfaces forkpty [1] login_tty [1] logwtmp [1] login [1] logout [1] openpty [1] Referenced Specification(s) [1]. this specification _________________________________________________________ 2.8. Interface Definitions for libutil Table of Contents forkpty -- Create a new process attached to an available pseudo-terminal login -- login utility function login_tty -- Prepare a terminal for login logout -- logout utility function logwtmp -- append an entry to the wtmp file openpty -- find and open an available pseudo-terminal The following interfaces are included in libutil and are defined by this specification. Unless otherwise noted, these interfaces shall be included in the source standard. Other interfaces listed above for libutil shall behave as described in the referenced base document. forkpty Name forkpty -- Create a new process attached to an available pseudo-terminal Synopsis #include int forkpty(int * amaster, char * name, struct termios * termp, struct winsize * winp); Description The forkpty() function shall find and open a pseudo-terminal device pair in the same manner as the openpty() function. If a pseudo-terminal is available, forkpty() shall create a new process in the same manner as the fork() function, and prepares the new process for login in the same manner as login_tty(). If termp is not null, it shall refer to a termios structure that shall be used to initialize the characteristics of the slave device. If winp is not null, it shall refer to a winsize structure used to initialize the window size of the slave device. Return Value On success, the parent process shall return the process id of the child, and the child shall return 0. On error, no new process shall be created, -1 shall be returned, and errno shall be set appropriately. On success, the parent process shall receive the file descriptor of the master side of the pseudo-terminal in the location referenced by amaster, and, if name is not NULL, the filename of the slave device in name. Errors EAGAIN Unable to create a new process. ENOENT There are no available pseudo-terminals. ENOMEM Insufficient memory was available. login Name login -- login utility function Synopsis #include void login (struct utmp * ut ); Description The login() function shall update the user accounting databases. The ut parameter shall reference a utmp structure for all fields except the following: 1. The ut_type field shall be set to USER_PROCESS. 2. The ut_pid field shall be set to the process identifier for the current process. 3. The ut_line field shall be set to the name of the controlling terminal device. The name shall be found by examining the device associated with the standard input, output and error streams in sequence, until one associated with a terminal device is found. If none of these streams refers to a terminal device, the ut_line field shall be set to "???". If the terminal device is in the /dev directory hierarchy, the ut_line field shall not contain the leading "/dev/", otherwise it shall be set to the final component of the pathname of the device. If the user accounting database imposes a limit on the size of the ut_line field, it shall truncate the name, but any such limit shall not be smaller than UT_LINESIZE (including a terminating null character). Return Value None Errors None login_tty Name login_tty -- Prepare a terminal for login Synopsis #include int login_tty (int fdr); Description The login_tty() function shall prepare the terminal device referenced by the file descriptor fdr. This function shall create a new session, make the terminal the controlling terminal for the current process, and set the standard input, output, and error streams of the current process to the terminal. If fdr is not the standard input, output or error stream, then login_tty() shall close fdr. Return Value On success, login_tty() shall return zero; otherwise -1 is returned, and errno shall be set appropriately. Errors ENOTTY fdr does not refer to a terminal device. logout Name logout -- logout utility function Synopsis #include int logout (const char * line ); Description Given the device line, the logout() function shall search the user accounting database which is read by getutent() for an entry with the corresponding line, and with the type of USER_PROCESS. If a corresponding entry is located, it shall be updated as follows: 1. The ut_name field shall be set to zeroes (UT_NAMESIZE NUL bytes). 2. The ut_host field shall be set to zeroes (UT_HOSTSIZE NUL bytes). 3. The ut_tv shall be set to the current time of day. 4. The ut_type field shall be set to DEAD_PROCESS. Return Value On success, the logout() function shall return non-zero. Zero is returned if there was no entry to remove, or if the utmp file could not be opened or updated. logwtmp Name logwtmp -- append an entry to the wtmp file Synopsis #include void logwtmp (const char * line , const char * name , const char * host ); Description If the process has permission to update the user accounting databases, the logwtmp() function shall append a record to the user accounting database that records all logins and logouts. The record to be appended shall be constructed as follows: 1. The ut_line field shall be initialized from line. If the user accounting database imposes a limit on the size of the ut_line field, it shall truncate the value, but any such limit shall not be smaller than UT_LINESIZE (including a terminating null character). 2. The ut_name field shall be initialized from name. If the user accounting database imposes a limit on the size of the ut_name field, it shall truncate the value, but any such limit shall not be smaller than UT_NAMESIZE (including a terminating null character). 3. The ut_host field shall be initialized from host. If the user accounting database imposes a limit on the size of the ut_host field, it shall truncate the value, but any such limit shall not be smaller than UT_HOSTSIZE (including a terminating null character). 4. If the name parameter does not refer to an empty string (i.e. ""), the ut_type field shall be set to USER_PROCESS; otherwise the ut_type field shall be set to DEAD_PROCESS. 5. The ut_id field shall be set to the process identifier for the current process. 6. The ut_tv field shall be set to the current time of day. Note: If a process does not have write access to the the user accounting database, the logwtmp() function will not update it. Since the function does not return any value, an application has no way of knowing whether it succeeded or failed. Return Value None. openpty Name openpty -- find and open an available pseudo-terminal Synopsis #include int openpty(int *amaster, int *aslave, char *name, struct termios *termp, struct winsize *winp); Description The openpty() function shall find an available pseudo-terminal and return file descriptors for the master and slave devices in the locations referenced by amaster and aslave respectively. If name is not NULL, the filename of the slave shall be placed in the user supplied buffer referenced by name. If termp is not NULL, it shall point to a termios structure used to initialize the terminal parameters of the slave pseudo-terminal device. If winp is not NULL, it shall point to a winsize structure used to initialize the window size parameters of the slave pseudo-terminal device. Return Value On success, zero is returned. On error, -1 is returned, and errno is set appropriately. Errors ENOENT There are no available pseudo-terminals. III. Commands and Utilities Table of Contents 3. Commands and Utilities _________________________________________________________ Chapter 3. Commands and Utilities 3.1. Commands and Utilities An LSB conforming implementation shall provide the commands and utilities as described in Table 3-1, with at least the behavior described as mandatory in the referenced underlying specification, with the following execptions: 1. If any operand (except one which follows --) starts with a hyphen, the behavior is unspecified. Rationale (Informative): Applications should place options before operands, or use --, as needed. This text is needed because, by default, GNU option parsing differs from POSIX, unless the environment variable POSIXLY_CORRECT is set. For example, ls . -a in GNU ls means to list the current directory, showing all files (that is, "." is an operand and -a is an option). In POSIX, "." and -a are both operands, and the command means to list the current directory, and also the file named -a. Suggesting that applications rely on the setting of the POSIXLY_CORRECT environment variable, or try to set it, seems worse than just asking the applictions to invoke commands in ways which work with either the POSIX or GNU behaviors.

ISO POSIX (2003) [2]. this specification An LSB conforming implementation shall provide the shell built in utilities as described in Table 3-2, with at least the behavior described as mandatory in the referenced underlying specification, with the following execptions: 1. The built in commands and utilities shall be provided by the sh utility itself, and need not be implemented in a manner so that they can be accessed via the exec family of functions as defined in ISO POSIX (2003) and should not be invoked directly by those standard utilities that execute other utilities ( env, find, nice, nohup, time, xargs). Rationale (Informative): Since the built in utilities must affect the environment of the calling process, they have no effect when executed as a file. Table 3-2.

It also contains commands and utilities only required by the LSB and not specified by other standards. ar Name ar -- create and maintain library archives (DEPRECATED) Description ar is deprecated from the LSB and is expected to disappear from a future version of the LSB. Rationale: The LSB generally does not include software development utilities nor does it specify .o and .a file formats. ar is as specified in ISO POSIX (2003) but with differences as listed below. Differences -T, -C need not be accepted. -l has unspecified behavior. -q has unspecified behavior; using -r is suggested. at Name at -- examine or delete jobs for later execution Description at is as specified in ISO POSIX (2003) but with differences as listed below. Differences Options -d is functionally equivalent to the -r option specified in ISO POSIX (2003). -r need not be supported, but the '-d' option is equivalent. -t time need not be supported. Optional Control Files The implementation shall support the XSI optional behavior for access control; however the files at.allow and at.deny may reside in /etc rather than /usr/lib/cron. awk Name awk -- pattern scanning and processing language Description awk is as specified in ISO POSIX (2003) but with differences as listed below. Differences Certain aspects of internationalized regular expressions are optional; see Internationalization and Regular Expressions. batch Name batch -- schedule commands to be executed in a batch queue Description The specification for batch is as specified in ISO POSIX (2003), but with differences as listed below. Optional Control Files The implementation shall support the XSI optional behavior for access control; however the files at.allow and at.deny may reside in /etc rather than /usr/lib/cron. bc Name bc -- An arbitrary precision calculator language Description bc is as specified in ISO POSIX (2003) but with extensions as listed below. Extensions The bc language may be extended in an implementation defined manner. If an implementation supports extensions, it shall also support the additional options: -s|--standard processes exactly the POSIX bc language. -w|--warn gives warnings for extensions to POSIX bc. chfn Name chfn -- change user name and information Synopsis chfn [-f full_name] [-h home_phone] [user] Description chfn shall update the user database. An unprivileged user may only change the fields for their own account, a user with appropriate privileges may change the fields for any account. The fields full_name and home_phone may contain any character except: any control character comma colon equal sign If none of the options are selected, chfn operates in an interactive fashion. The prompts and expected input in interactive mode are unspecified and should not be relied upon. As it is possible for the system to be configured to restrict which fields a non-privileged user is permitted to change, applications should be written to gracefully handle these situations. Standard Options -f full_name sets the user's full name. -h home_phone sets the user's home phone number. Future Directions The following two options are expected to be added in a future version of the LSB: -o office sets the user's office room number. -p office_phone sets the user's office phone number. Note that some implementations contain a "-o other" option which specifies an additional field called "other". Traditionally, this field is not subject to the constraints about legitimate characters in fields. Also, one traditionally shall have appropriate privileges to change the other field. At this point there is no consensus about whether it is desirable to specify the other field; applications may wish to avoid using it. The "-w work_phone" field found in some implementations should be replaced by the "-p office_phone" field. The "-r room_number" field found in some implementations is the equivalent of the "-o office" option mentioned above; which one of these two options to specify will depend on implementation experience and the decision regarding the other field. chgrp Name chgrp -- change file group Description chgrp is as specified in ISO POSIX (2003) but with differences as listed below. Differences The -L, -H, and -P options need not be supported. chown Name chown -- change file owner and group Description chown is as specified in ISO POSIX (2003) but with differences as listed below. Differences The -L, -H, and -P options need not be supported. chsh Name chsh -- change login shell Synopsis chsh [-s login_shell] [user] Description chsh changes the user login shell. This determines the name of the user's initial login command. An unprivileged user may only change the login shell for their own account, a user with appropriate privilege may change the login shell for any account specified by user. Unless the user has appropriate privilege, the initial login command name shall be one of those listed in /etc/shells. The login_shell shall be the absolute path (i.e. it must start with '/') to an executable file. Accounts which are restricted (in an implementation-defined manner) may not change their login shell. If the -s option is not selected, chsh operates in an interactive mode. The prompts and expected input in this mode are unspecified. Standard Options -s login_shell sets the login shell. col Name col -- filter reverse line feeds from input Description col is as specified in SUSv2 but with differences as listed below. Differences The -p option has unspecified behavior. Note: Although col is shown as legacy in SUSv2, it is not (yet) deprecated in the LSB. cpio Name cpio -- copy file archives in and out Description cpio is as specified in ISO POSIX (2003), but with differences as listed below. Differences Some elements of the Pattern Matching Notation are optional; see Internationalization and Pattern Matching Notation. crontab Name crontab -- maintain crontab files for individual users Synopsis crontab [-u user] file crontab [-u user] {-l | -r | -e} Description crontab is as specified in ISO POSIX (2003), but with differences as listed below. Optional Control Files The implementation shall support the XSI optional behavior for access control; however the files cron.allow and cron.deny may reside in /etc rather than /usr/lib/cron. cut Name cut -- split a file into sections determined by context lines Description cut is as specified in ISO POSIX (2003), but with differences as listed below. Differences -n has unspecified behavior. df Name df -- report filesystem disk space usage Description The df command shall behave as specified in ISO POSIX (2003), but with differences as listed below. Differences Options If the -k option is not specified, disk space is shown in unspecified units. If the -P option is specified, the size of the unit shall be printed on the header line in the format "%4s-blocks". Applications should specify -k. The XSI option -t has unspecified behavior. Applications should not specify -t. Rationale: The most common implementation of df uses the -t option for a different purpose (restricting output to a particular filesystem type), and use of -t is therefore non-portable. Operand May Identify Special File If an argument is the absolute file name of a special file containing a mounted filesystem, df shall show the space available on that filesystem rather than on the filesystem containing the special file (which is typically the root filesystem). Note: In ISO POSIX (2003) the XSI optional behavior permits an operand to name a special file, but appears to require the operation be performed on the filesystem containing the special file. A defect report has been submitted for this case. dmesg Name dmesg -- print or control the system message buffer Synopsis dmesg [-c | -n level | -s bufsize] Description dmesg examines or controls the system message buffer. Only a user with appropriate privileges may modify the system message buffer parameters or contents. Standard Options -c If the user has appropriate privilege, clears the system message buffer contents after printing. -n level If the user has appropriate privilege, sets the level at which logging of messages is done to the console. -s bufsize uses a buffer of bufsize to query the system message buffer. This is 16392 by default (this matches the default kernel syslog buffer size since 2.1.113). If you have set the kernel buffer to larger than the default then this option can be used to view the entire buffer. du Name du -- estimate file space usage Description du is as specified in ISO POSIX (2003), but with differences as listed below. Differences If the -k option is not specified, disk space is shown in unspecified units. Applications should specify -k. echo Name echo -- Write arguments to standard output Synopsis echo [string...] Description The echo command is as specified in ISO POSIX (2003), but with the following differences. Implementations may support implementation-defined options to echo. The behavior of echo if any arguments contain backslashes is also implementation defined. Conforming applications shall not run echo with a first argument starting with a hyphen, or with any arguments containing backslashes; they should use printf in those cases. Note: The behavior specified here is similar to that specified by ISO POSIX (2003) without the XSI option. However, the LSB forbids a conforming application from using any options (even if the implementation provides them) while ISO POSIX (2003) specifies behavior if the first operand is the string -n. egrep Name egrep -- search a file with an ERE pattern Description egrep is equivalent to grep -E. For further details, see the specification for grep. fgrep Name fgrep -- search a file with a fixed pattern Description fgrep is equivalent to grep -F. For further details, see the specification for grep. file Name file -- determine file type Description file is as specified in ISO POSIX (2003), but with differences as listed below. Differences The -M, -h, -d, and -i options need not be supported. find Name find -- search for files in a directory hierarchy Description find shall behave as specified in ISO POSIX (2003), but with differences as listed below. Differences Pattern Matching Some elements of the Pattern Matching Notation are optional; see Internationalization and Pattern Matching Notation. Option and Operand Handling Options and operands to find shall behave as described in ISO POSIX (2003), except as follows: -H need not be supported -L need not be supported -exec ... + argument aggregation need not be supported Rationale: The -H and -L options are only supported in the most recent versions of find, as is argument aggregation. When this verion of find becomes widely adopted, these limitations will be removed. fuser Name fuser -- identify processes using files or sockets Description fuser is as specified in ISO POSIX (2003), but with differences as listed below. Differences The fuser command is a system administration utility, see Path For System Administration Utilities. Option Differences -c has unspecified behavior. -f has unspecified behavior. gettext Name gettext -- retrieve text string from message catalog Synopsis gettext [options] [textdomain] msgid gettext -s [options] msgid... Description The gettext utility retrieves a translated text string corresponding to string msgid from a message object generated with msgfmt utility. The message object name is derived from the optional argument textdomain if present, otherwise from the TEXTDOMAIN environment variable. If no domain is specified, or if a corresponding string cannot be found, gettext prints msgid. Ordinarily gettext looks for its message object in dirname/lang/LC_MESSAGES where dirname is the implementation-defined default directory and lang is the locale name. If present, the TEXTDOMAINDIR environment variable replaces the dirname. This utility interprets C escape sequences such as \t for tab. Use \\ to print a backslash. To produce a message on a line of its own, either put a \n at the end of msgid, or use this command in conjunction with the printf utility. When used with the -s option the gettext utility behaves like the echo utility, except that the message corresponding to msgid in the selected catalog provides the arguments. Options -d domainname, --domain=domainname PARAMETER translated messages from domainname. -e Enable expansion of some escape sequences. -n Suppress trailing newline. Operands The following operands are supported: textdomain A domain name used to retrieve the messages. msgid A key to retrieve the localized message. Environment Variables LANGUAGE Specifies one or more locale names. LANG Specifies locale name. LC_MESSAGES Specifies messaging locale, and if present overrides LANG for messages. TEXTDOMAIN Specifies the text domain name, which is identical to the message object filename without .mo suffix. TEXTDOMAINDIR Specifies the pathname to the message catalog, and if present replaces the implementation-defined default directory. Exit Status The following exit values are returned: 0 Successful completion. >0 An error occurred. grep Name grep -- print lines matching a pattern Description grep is as specified in ISO POSIX (2003), but with differences as listed below. LSB Differences Certain aspects of regular expression matching are optional; see Internationalization and Regular Expressions. groupadd Name groupadd -- create a new group Synopsis groupadd [-g gid [-o]] group Description If the caller has appropriate privilege, the groupadd command shall create a new group named group. The group name shall be unique in the group database. If no gid is specified, groupadd shall create the new group with a unique group ID. The groupadd command is a system administration utility, see Path For System Administration Utilities. Options -g gid [-o] The new group shall have group ID gid. If the -o option is not used, no other group shall have this group ID. The value of gidshall be non-negative. groupdel Name groupdel -- delete a group Synopsis groupdel group Description If the caller has sufficient privilege, the groupdel command shall modify the system group database, deleting the group named group. If the group named group does not exist, groupdel shall issue a diagnostic message and exit with a non-zero exit status. The groupdel command is a system administration utility, see Path For System Administration Utilities. groupmod Name groupmod -- modify a group Synopsis groupmod [-g gid [-o]] [-n group_name] group Description If the caller has appropriate privilege, the groupmod command shall modify the entry in the system group database corresponding to a group named group. The groupmod command is a system administration utility, see Path For System Administration Utilities. Options -g gid [-o] Modify the group's group ID, setting it to gid. If the -o option is not used, no other group shall have this group ID. The value of gidshall be non-negative. Note: Only the group ID in the database is altered; any files with group ownership set to the original group ID are unchanged by this modification. -n group_name changes the name of the group from group to group_name. groups Name groups -- display a group Synopsis groups [user] Description The groups command shall behave as id -Gn [user], as specified in ISO POSIX (2003). The optional user parameter will display the groups for the named user. gunzip Name gunzip -- uncompress files Description gunzip is equivalent to gzip -d. See the specification for gzip for further details. gzip Name gzip -- compress or expand files Synopsis gzip [-cdfhlLnNrtvV19] [-S suffix] [name...] Description The gzip command shall attempt to reduce the size of the named files. Whenever possible, each file is replaced by one with the extension .gz, while keeping the same ownership modes, access and modification times. If no files are specified, or if a file name is -, the standard input is compressed to the standard output. gzip shall only attempt to compress regular files. In particular, it will ignore symbolic links. When compressing, gzip uses the deflate algorithm specified in RFC 1951: DEFLATE Compressed Data Format Specification and stores the result in a file using the gzip file format specified in RFC 1952: GZIP File Format Specification. Options -c, --stdout, --to-stdout writes output on standard output, leaving the original files unchanged. If there are several input files, the output consists of a sequence of independently compressed members. To obtain better compression, concatenate all input files before compressing them. -d, --decompress, --uncompress the name operands are compressed files, and gzip shall decompress them. -f, --force forces compression or decompression even if the file has multiple links or the corresponding file already exists, or if the compressed data is read from or written to a terminal. If the input data is not in a format recognized by gzip, and if the option --stdout is also given, copy the input data without change to the standard ouput: let gzip behave as cat. If -f is not given, and when not running in the background, gzip prompts to verify whether an existing file should be overwritten. -l, --list lists the compressed size, uncompressed size, ration and uncompressed name for each compressed file. Gives the uncompressed size as -1 for files not in gzip format. Additionally displays method, crc and timestamp for the uncompress file when used in combination with --verbose. For decompression, gzip shall support at least the following compression methods: + deflate (RFC 1951: DEFLATE Compressed Data Format Specification) + compress (ISO POSIX (2003)) The crc shall be given as ffffffff for a file not in gzip format. With --name, the uncompressed name, date and time are those stored within the compress file, if present. With --verbose, the size totals and compression ratio for all files is also displayed, unless some sizes are unknown. With --quiet, the title and totals lines are not displayed. -L, --license displays the gzip license and quit. -n, --no-name does not save the original file name and time stamp by default when compressing. (The original name is always saved if the name had to be truncated.) When decompressing, do not restore the original file name if present (remove only the gzip suffix from the compressed file name) and do not restore the original time stamp if present (copy it from the compressed file). This option is the default when decompressing. -N, --name always saves the original file name and time stamp when compressing; this is the default. When decompressing, restore the original file name and time stamp if present. This option is useful on systems which have a limit on file name length or when the time stamp has been lost after a file transfer. -q, --quiet suppresses all warnings. -r, --recursive travels the directory structure recursively. If any of the file names specified on the command line are directories, gzip will descend into the directory and compress all the files it finds there (or decompress them in the case of gunzip). -S .suf, --sufix .suf uses suffix .suf instead of .gz. -t, --test checks the compressed file integrity. -v, --verbose displays the name and percentage reduction for each file compressed or decompressed. -#, --fast, --best regulates the speed of compression using the specified digit #, where -1 or --fast indicates the fastest compression method (less compression) and -9 or --best indicates the slowest compression method (best compression). The default compression level is -6 (that is, biased towards high compression at expense of speed). LSB Deprecated Options The behaviors specified in this section are expected to disappear from a future version of the LSB; applications should only use the non-LSB-deprecated behaviors. -V, --version displays the version number and compilation options, then quits. hostname Name hostname -- show or set the system's host name Synopsis hostname [name] Description hostname is used to either display or, with appropriate privileges, set the current host name of the system. The host name is used by many applications to identify the machine. When called without any arguments, the program displays the name of the system as returned by the gethostname() function. When called with a name argument, and the user has appropriate privilege, the command sets the host name. Note: It is not specified if the hostname displayed will be a fully qualified domain name. Applications requiring a particular format of hostname should check the output and take appropriate action. install Name install -- copy files and set attributes Synopsis install [option...] SOURCE DEST install [option...] SOURCE... DEST install [-d | --directory] [option...] DIRECTORY... Description In the first two formats, copy SOURCE to DEST or multiple SOURCE(s) to the existing DIRECTORY, optionally setting permission modes and file ownership. In the third format, each DIRECTORY and any missing parent directories shall be created. Standard Options --backup[=METHOD] makes a backup of each existing destination file. METHOD may be one of the following: + none or off never make backups. + numbered or t make numbered backups. A numbered backup has the form "%s.~%d~", target_name, version_number. Each backup shall increment the version number by 1. + existing or nil numbered if numbered backups exist, or simple otherwise. + simple or never append a suffix to the name. The default suffix is '~', but can be overriden by setting SIMPLE_BACKUP_SUFFIX in the environment, or via the -S or --suffix option. If no METHOD is specified, the environment variable VERSION_CONTROL shall be examined for one of the above. Unambiguous abbreviations of METHOD shall be accepted. If no METHOD is specified, or if METHOD is empty, the backup method shall default to existing. If METHOD is invalid or ambiguous, install shall fail and issue a diagnostic message. -b is equivalent to --backup=existing. -d, --directory treats all arguments as directory names; creates all components of the specified directories. -D creates all leading components of DEST except the last, then copies SOURCE to DEST; useful in the 1st format. -g GROUP, --group=GROUP if the user has appropriate privilege, sets group ownership, instead of process' current group. GROUP is either a name in the user group database, or a positive integer, which shall be used as a group-id. -m MODE, --mode=MODE sets permission mode (specified as in chmod), instead of the default rwxr-xr-x. -o OWNER, --owner=OWNER if the user has appropriate privilege, sets ownership. OWNER is either a name in the user login database, or a positive integer, which shall be used as a user-id. -p, --preserve-timestamps copies the access and modification times of SOURCE files to corresponding destination files. -s, --strip strips symbol tables, only for 1st and 2nd formats. -S SUFFIX, --suffix=SUFFIX equivalent to --backup=existing, except if a simple suffix is required, use SUFFIX. --verbose prints the name of each directory as it is created. -v, --verbose print the name of each file before copying it to stdout. install_initd Name install_initd -- install an init.d file Synopsis /usr/lib/lsb/install_initd initd_file Description install_initd shall install a system initialization file that has been copied to the /etc/init.d location such that this file shall be run at the appropriate point during system initialization. The install_initrd command is typically called in the postinstall script of a package. See also Section 8.4. ipcrm Name ipcrm -- Remove IPC Resources Synopsis ipcrm [-q msgid | -Q msgkey | -s semid | -S semkey | -m shmid | -M shmkey]... ipcrm [shm | msg | msg] id... Description If any of the -q, -Q, -s, -S, -m, or -M arguments are given, the ipcrm shall behave as described in ISO POSIX (2003). Otherwise, ipcrm shall remove the resource of the specified type identified by id. Future Directions A future revision of this specification may deprecate the second synopsis form. Rationale: In its first Linux implementation, ipcrm used the second syntax shown in the SYNOPSIS. Functionality present in other implementations of ipcrm has since been added, namely the ability to delete resources by key (not just identifier), and to respect the same command line syntax. The previous syntax is still supported for backwards compatibility only. ipcs Name ipcs -- provide information on ipc facilities Synopsis ipcs [-smq] [-tcp] Description ipcs provides information on the ipc facilities for which the calling process has read access. Note: Although this command has many similarities with the optional ipcs utility described in ISO POSIX (2003), it has substantial differences and is therefore described separately. The options specified here have similar meaning to those in ISO POSIX (2003); other options specified there have unspecified behavior on an LSB conforming implementation. See Application Usage below. The output format is not specified. Resource display options -m shared memory segments. -q message queues. -s semaphore arrays. Output format options -t time. -p pid. -c creator. Application Usage In some implementations of ipcs the -a option will print all information available. In other implementations the -a option will print all resource types. Therefore, applications shall not use the -a option. Some implementations of ipcs provide more output formats than are specified here. These options are not consistent between differing implementations of ipcs. Therefore, only the -t, -c and -p option formatting flags may be used. At least one of the -t, -c and -p options, and at least one of -m, -q and -s options, shall be specified. killall Name killall -- kill processes by name Synopsis killall [-egiqvw] [-signal] name... killall -l killall -V Description killall sends a signal to all processes running any of the specified commands. If no signal name is specified, SIGTERM is sent. Signals can be specified either by name (e.g. -HUP) or by number (e.g. -1). Signal 0 (check if a process exists) can only be specified by number. If the command name contains a slash (/), processes executing that particular file will be selected for killing, independent of their name. killall returns a non-zero return code if no process has been killed for any of the listed commands. If at least one process has been killed for each command, killall returns zero. A killall process never kills itself (but may kill other killall processes). Standard Options -e requires an exact match for very long names. If a command name is longer than 15 characters, the full name may be unavailable (i.e. it is swapped out). In this case, killall will kill everything that matches within the first 15 characters. With -e, such entries are skipped. killall prints a message for each skipped entry if -v is specified in addition to -e. -g kills the process group to which the process belongs. The kill signal is only sent once per group, even if multiple processes belonging to the same process group were found. -i asks interactively for confirmation before killing. -l lists all known signal names. -q does not complain if no processes were killed. -v reports if the signal was successfully sent. LSB Deprecated Options The behaviors specified in this section are expected to disappear from a future version of the LSB; applications should only use the non-LSB-deprecated behaviors. -V displays version information. lpr Name lpr -- off line print Synopsis lpr [-l] [-p] [-Pprinter] [-h] [-s] [-#copies] [-J name] [-T title] [name ......] Description lpr uses a spooling daemon to print the named files when facilities become available. If no names appear, the standard input is assumed. Standard Options -l identifies binary data that is not to be filtered but sent as raw input to printer. -p formats with "pr" before sending to printer. -Pprinter sends output to the printer named printer instead of the default printer. -h suppresses header page. -s uses symbolic links. -#copies specifies copies as the number of copies to print. -J name specifies name as the job name for the header page. -T title specifies title as the title used for "pr". ls Name ls -- list directory contents Description ls shall behave as specified in ISO POSIX (2003), but with extensions listed below. Extensions -l If the file is a character special or block special file, the size of the file shall be replaced with two unsigned numbers in the format "%u, %u", representing the major and minor device numbers associated with the special file. Note: The LSB does not specify the meaning of the major and minor devices numbers. -p in addition to ISO POSIX (2003) XSI optional behavior of printing a slash for a directory, ls -p may display other characters for other file types. lsb_release Name lsb_release -- print distribution specific information Synopsis lsb_release [OPTION...] Description The lsb_release command prints certain LSB (Linux Standard Base) and Distribution information. If no options are given, the -v option is assumed. Options -v, --version displays version of LSB against which distribution is compliant. The version is expressed as a colon seperated list of LSB module descriptions. LSB module descriptions are dash seperated tuples containing the module name, version, and architecture name. The output is a single line of text of the following format: LSB Version:\t -i, --id displays string id of distributor. The output is a single line of text of the following format: Distributor ID:\t -d, --description displays single line text description of distribution. The output is of the following format: Description:\t -r, --release displays release number of distribution. The output is a single line of text of the following format: Release:\t -c, --codename displays codename according to distribution release. The output is a single line of text of the following format. Codename:\t -a, --all displays all of the above information. -s, --short displays all of the above information in short output format. -h, --help displays a human-readable help message. Examples The following command will list the LSB Profiles which are currently supported on this platform. example% lsb_release -v LSB Version: core-2.0-ia32:core-2.0-noarch:graphics-2.0-ia32:graphics-2 .0-noarch lsbinstall Name lsbinstall -- installation tool for various types of data Synopsis /usr/lib/lsb/lsbinstall [OPTION...] Description The lsbinstall command may be used to install certain types of files into system specific locations. This command may be used during a package post installation script to add package specific data to system wide repositories. A user may need appropriate privilege to invoke lsbinstall. Options -f, --font install a font file into the systemwide font repository. There shall be one operand, that names a font file. -i, --init install an init script into the system specific location. There shall be one operand, that names an init script file. -p, --profile install a profile script into the system specific location. There shall be one operand, that names a profile shell script. The behavior is unspecified if this name does not have the suffix .sh. -s, --service ensure a service name and number pair is know to the system service database. There must be at least two operands. The first operand shall have the format %d/%s with the port number and protocol values (e.g. 22/tcp), and the second operand shall be the name of the service. Any subsequent operands provide aliases for this service. -I, --inet add an entry to the systems inet super daemon configuration. There shall be one operand, that names a file with the following format: service { } Add a list here of supported attributes. Explain that assign-opt must be at least =, but others may be supported. -c, --crontab Install a crontab into the system specific location. There shall be one operand, that names a crontab file. See Cron Jobs. -m, --menu install a desktop menu entry into the system menu database. There shall be one operand, that names a menu file. -l, --ldconfig Register a directory that contains shared libraries with the system. There shall be one operand, that names a directory. Examples add something here! m4 Name m4 -- macro processor Description m4 is as specified in ISO POSIX (2003), but with extensions as listed below. Extensions -P forces all builtins to be prefixed with m4_. For example, define becomes m4_define. -I directory Add directory to the end of the search path for includes. md5sum Name md5sum -- generate or check MD5 message digests Synopsis md5sum [-c [file] | file...] Description For each file, write to standard output a line containing the MD5 message digest of that file, followed by one or more blank characters, followed by the name of the file. The MD5 message digest shall be calculated according to RFC 1321: The MD5 Message-Digest Algorithm and output as 32 hexadecimal digits. If no file names are specified as operands, read from standard input and use "-" as the file name in the output. Options -c [file] checks the MD5 message digest of all files named in file against the message digest listed in the same file. The actual format of file is the same as the output of md5sum. That is, each line in the file describes a file. If file is not specified, read message digests from stdin. Exit Status md5sum shall exit with status 0 if the sum was generated successfully, or, in check mode, if the check matched. Otherwise, md5sum shall exit with a non-zero status. mknod Name mknod -- make special files Synopsis mknod [-m mode | --mode=mode] name type [major minor] mknod [--version] Description The mknod command shall create a special file named name of the given type. The type shall be one of the following: b creates a block (buffered) special file with the specified major and minor device numbers. c, u creates a character (unbuffered) special file with the specified major and minor device numbers. p creates a FIFO. Options -m mode, --mode=mode create the special file with file access permissions set as described in mode. The permissions may be any absolute value (i.e. one not containing '+' or '-') acceptable to the chmod command. --version output version information and exit. Note: This option may be deprecated in a future release of this specification. If type is pparameter, major and minor shall not be specified. Otherwise, these parameters are mandatory. Future Directions This command may be deprecated in a future version of this specification. The major and minor operands are insufficently portable to be specified usefully here. Only a FIFO can be portably created by this command, and the mkfifo command is a simpler interface for that purpose. mktemp Name mktemp -- make temporary file name (unique) Synopsis mktemp [-q] [-u] template Description The mktemp command takes the given file name template and overwrites a portion of it to create a file name. This file name shall be unique and suitable for use by the application. The template should have at least six trailing 'X' characters. These characters are replaced with characters from the portable filename character set in order to generate a unique name. If mktemp can successfully generate a unique file name, and the -u option is not present, the file shall be created with read and write permission only for the current user. The mktemp command shall write the filename generated to the standard output. Options -q fail silently if an error occurs. Diagnostic messages to stderr are suppressed, but the command shall still exit with a non-zero exit status if an error occurs. -u operates in `unsafe' mode. A unique name is generated, but the temporary file shall be unlinked before mktemp exits. Use of this option is not encouraged. more Name more -- display files on a page-by-page basis Description more is as specified in ISO POSIX (2003), but with differences as listed below. Differences The more command need not respect the LINES and COLUMNS environment variables. The following additional options may be supported: -num specifies an integer which is the screen size (in lines). +num starts at line number num. +/pattern Start at the first line matching the pattern, equivalent to executing the search forward (/) command with the given pattern immediately after opening each file. The following options from ISO POSIX (2003) may behave differently: -e has unspecified behavior. -i has unspecified behavior. -n has unspecified behavior. -p Either clear the whole screen before displaying any text (instead of the usual scrolling behavior), or provide the behavior specified by ISO POSIX (2003). In the latter case, the syntax is "-p command". -t has unspecified behavior. The more command need not support the following interactive commands: g G u control u control f newline j k r R m ' (return to mark) /! ? N :e :t control g ZZ Rationale The +num and +/string options are deprecated in SUSv2, and have been removed in ISO POSIX (2003); however this specification continues to specify them because the publicly available util-linux package does not support the replacement (-p command). The +command option as found in SUSv2 is more general than is specified here, but the util-linux package appears to only support the more specific +num and +/string forms. mount Name mount -- mount a file system Synopsis mount [-hV] mount [-a] [-fFnrsvw] [-t vfstype] mount [-fnrsvw] [-o options [,...]] [device | dir] mount [-fnrsvw] [-t vfstype] [-o options] device dir Description As described in ISO POSIX (2003), all files in the system are organized in a directed graph, known as the file hierarchy, rooted at /. These files can be spread out over several underlying devices. The mount command shall attach the file system found on some underlying device to the file hierarchy. Options -v invoke verbose mode. The mount command shall provide diagnostic messages on stdout. -a mount all filesystems (of the given types) mentioned in /etc/fstab. -F If the -a option is also present, fork a new incarnation of mount for each device to be mounted. This will do the mounts on different devices or different NFS servers in parallel. -f cause everything to be done except for the actual system call; if it's not obvious, this `fakes' mounting the file system. -n mount without writing in /etc/mtab. This is necessary for example when /etc is on a read-only file system. -s ignore mount options not supported by a filesystem type. Not all filesystems support this option. -r mount the file system read-only. A synonym is -o ro. -w mount the file system read/write. (default) A synonym is -o rw. -L label If the file /proc/partitions is supported, mount the partition that has the specified label. -U uuid If the file /proc/partitions is supported, mount the partition that has the specified uuid. -t vfstype indicate a file system type of vfstype. More than one type may be specified in a comma separated list. The list of file system types can be prefixed with no to specify the file system types on which no action should be taken. -o options are specified with a -o flag followed by a comma-separated string of options. Some of these options are only useful when they appear in the /etc/fstab file. The following options apply to any file system that is being mounted: async perform all I/O to the file system asynchronously. atime update inode access time for each access. (default) auto in /etc/fstab, indicate the device is mountable with -a. defaults use default options: rw, suid, dev, exec, auto, nouser, async. dev interpret character or block special devices on the file system. exec permit execution of binaries. noatime do not update file access times on this file system. noauto in /etc/fstab, indicates the device is only explicitly mountable. nodev do not interpret character or block special devices on the file system. noexec do not allow execution of any binaries on the mounted file system. nosuid do not allow set-user-identifier or set-group-identifier bits to take effect. nouser forbid an unprivileged user to mount the file system. (default) remount remount an already-mounted file system. This is commonly used to change the mount options for a file system, especially to make a read-only file system writable. ro mount the file system read-only. rw mount the file system read-write. suid allow set-user-identifier or set-group-identifier bits to take effect. sync do all I/O to the file system synchronously. user allow an unprivilieged user to mount the file system. This option implies the options noexec, nosuid, nodev unless overridden by subsequent options. LSB Deprecated Options The behaviors specified in this section are expected to disappear from a future version of the LSB; applications should only use the non-LSB-deprecated behaviors. -V output version and exit. msgfmt Name msgfmt -- create a message object from a message file Synopsis msgfmt [options...] filename... Description The msgfmt command generates a binary message catalog from a textual translation description. Message catalogs, or message object files, are stored in files with a .mo extension. Note: The format of message object files is not guaranteed to be portable. Message catalogs should always be generated on the target architecture using the msgfmt command. The source message files, otherwise known as portable object files, have a .po extension. The filename operands shall be portable object files. The .po file contains messages to be displayed to users by system utilities or by application programs. The portable object files are text files, and the messages in them can be rewritten in any language supported by the system. If any filename is -, a portable object file shall be read from the standard input. The msgfmt command interprets data as characters according to the current setting of the LC_CTYPE locale category. Options -c, --check Detect and diagnose input file anomalies which might represent translation errors. The msgid and msgstr strings are studied and compared. It is considered abnormal that one string starts or ends with a newline while the other does not. If the message is flagged as c-format (see Comment Handling), check that the msgid string and the msgstr translation have the same number of % format specifiers, with matching types. -D directory, --directory=directory Add directory to list for input files search. If filename is not an absolute pathname and filename cannot be opened, search for it in directory. This option may be repeated. Directories shall be searched in order, with the leftmost directory searched first. -f, --use-fuzzy Use entries marked as fuzzy in output. If this option is not specified, such entries are not included into the output. See Comment Handling below. -o output-file, --output-file=output-file Specify the output file name as output-file. If multiple domains or duplicate msgids in the .po file are present, the behavior is unspecified. If output-file is -, output is written to standard output. --strict Ensure that all output files have a .mo extension. Output files are named either by the -o (or --output-file) option, or by domains found in the input files. -v, --verbose Print additional information to the standard error, including the number of translated strings processed. Operands The filename operands are treated as portable object files. The format of portable object files is defined in EXTENDED DESCRIPTION. Standard Input The standard input is not used unless a filename operand is specified as "-". Environment Variables LANGUAGE Specifies one or more locale names. LANG Specifies locale name. LC_ALL Specifies locale name for all categories. If defined, overrides LANG, LC_CTYPE and LC_MESSAGES. LC_CTYPE Determine the locale for the interpretation of sequences of bytes of text data as characters (for example, single-byte as opposed to multi-byte characters in arguments and input files). LC_MESSAGES Specifies messaging locale, and if present overrides LANG for messages. Standard Output The standard output is not used unless the option-argument of the -o option is specified as -. Extended Description The format of portable object files (.po files) is defined as follows. Each .po file contains one or more lines, with each line containing either a comment or a statement. Comments start the line with a hash mark (#) and end with the newline character. Empty lines, or lines containing only white-space, shall be ignored. Comments can in certain circumstances alter the behavior of msgfmt. See Comment Handling below for details on comment processing. The format of a statement is: directive value Each directive starts at the beginning of the line and is separated from value by white space (such as one or more space or tab characters). The value consists of one or more quoted strings separated by white space. If two or more strings are specified as value, they are normalized into single string using the string normalization syntax specified in ISO C (1999). The following directives are supported: domain domainname msgid message_identifier msgid_plural untranslated_string_plural msgstr message_string msgstr[n] message_string The behavior of the domain directive is affected by the options used. See OPTIONS for the behavior when the -o option is specified. If the -o option is not specified, the behavior of the domain directive is as follows: 1. All msgids from the beginning of each .po file to the first domain directive are put into a default message object file, messages (or messages.mo if the --strict option is specified). 2. When msgfmt encounters a domain domainname directive in the .po file, all following msgids until the next domain directive are put into the message object file domainname (or domainname.mo if --strict option is specified). 3. Duplicate msgids are defined in the scope of each domain. That is, a msgid is considered a duplicate only if the identical msgid exists in the same domain. 4. All duplicate msgids are ignored. The msgid directive specifies the value of a message identifier associated with the directive that follows it. The msgid_plural directive specifies the plural form message specified to the plural message handling functions ngettext(), dngettext() or dcngettext(). The message_identifier string identifies a target string to be used at retrieval time. Each statement containing a msgid directive shall be followed by a statement containing a msgstr directive or msgstr[n] directives. The msgstr directive specifies the target string associated with the message_identifier string declared in the immediately preceding msgid directive. The msgstr[n] (where n = 0, 1, 2, ...) directive specifies the target string to be used with plural form handling functions ngettext(), dngettext() and dcngettext(). Message strings can contain the following escape sequences: Table 3-1. Escape Sequences \n newline \t tab \v vertical tab \b backspace \r carriage return \f formfeed \\ backslash \" double quote \ddd octal bit pattern \xHH hexadecimal bit pattern Comment Handling Comments are introduced by a #, and continue to the end of the line. The second character (i.e. the character following the #) has special meaning. Regular comments should follow a space character. Other comment types include: # normal-comments #. automatic-comments #: reference... #, flag Automatic and reference comments are typically generated by external utilities, and are not specified by the LSB. The msgfmt command shall ignore such comments. Note: Portable object files may be produced by unspecified tools. Some of the comment types described here may arise from the use of such tools. It is beyond the scope of this specification to describe these tools. The #, comments require one or more flags separated by the comma (,) character. The following flags can be specified: fuzzy This flag shows that the following msgstr string might not be a correct translation. Only the translator (i.e. the individual undertaking the translation) can judge if the translation requires further modification, or is acceptable as is. Once satisfied with the translation, the translator then removes this fuzzy flag. If this flag is specified, the msgfmt utility will not generate the entry for the immediately following msgid in the output message catalog, unless the --use-fuzzy is specified. c-format, no-c-format The c-format flag indicates that the msgid string is used as format string by printf()-like functions. If the c-format flag is given for a string the msgfmt utility may perform additional tests to check to validity of the translation. Plurals The msgid entry with empty string ("") is called the header entry and is treated specially. If the message string for the header entry contains nplurals=value, the value indicates the number of plural forms. For example, if nplurals=4, there are 4 plural forms. If nplurals is defined, there should be a plural=expression on the same line, separated by a semicolon (;) character. The expression is a C language expression to determine which version of msgstr[n] to be used based on the value of n, the last argument of ngettext(), dngettext() or dcngettext(). For example: nplurals=2; plural=n == 1 ? 0 : 1 indicates that there are 2 plural forms in the language; msgstr[0] is used if n == 1, otherwise msgstr[1] is used. Another example: nplurals=3; plural=n==1 ? 0 : n==2 ? 1 : 2 indicates that there are 3 plural forms in the language; msgstr[0] is used if n == 1, msgstr[1] is used if n == 2, otherwise msgstr[2] is used. If the header entry contains charset=codeset string, the codeset is used to indicate the codeset to be used to encode the message strings. If the output string's codeset is different from the message string's codeset, codeset conversion from the message strings's codeset to the output string's codeset will be performed upon the call of gettext(), dgettext(), dcgettext(), ngettext(), dngettext(), and dcngettext(). The output string's codeset is determined by the current locale's codeset (the return value of nl_langinfo(CODESET)) by default, and can be changed by the call of bind_textdomain_codeset(). Exit Status The following exit values are returned: 0 Successful completion. >0 An error occurred. Application Usage Neither msgfmt nor any gettext() function imposes a limit on the total length of a message. Installing message catalogs under the C locale is pointless, since they are ignored for the sake of efficiency. Examples Example 1: Examples of creating message objects from message files. In this example module1.po, module2.po and module3.po are portable message object files. example% cat module1.po # default domain "messages" msgid "message one" msgstr "mensaje nśmero uno" # domain "help_domain" msgid "help two" msgstr "ayuda nśmero dos" # domain "error_domain" msgid "error three" msgstr "error nśmero tres" example% cat module2.po # default domain "messages" msgid "message four" msgstr "mensaje nśmero cuatro" # domain "error_domain" msgid "error five" msgstr "error nśmero cinco" # domain "window_domain" msgid "window six" msgstr "ventana nśmero seises" example% cat module3.po # default domain "messages" msgid "message seven" msgstr "mensaje nśmero siete" The following command will produce the output files messages, help_domain, and error_domain. example% msgfmt module1.po The following command will produce the output files messages.mo, help_domain.mo, error_domain.mo, and window_domain.mo. example% msgfmt module1.po module2.po The following example will produce the output file hello.mo. example% msgfmt -o hello.mo module3.po newgrp Name newgrp -- change group ID Synopsis newgrp [group] Description The newgrp command is as specified in ISO POSIX (2003), but with differences as listed below. Differences The -l option specified in ISO POSIX (2003) need not be supported. od Name od -- dump files in octal and other formats Synopsis od [-abcdfilox] [-w width | --width-width] [-v] [-A address_base] [-j skip] [-n count] [-t type_string] [file...] od --traditional [options] [file] [[+]offset [.] [b]] [[+]label [.] [b]] Description The od command shall provide all of the madatory functionality specified in ISO POSIX (2003), but with extensions and differences to the XSI optional behavior as listed below. Extensions and Differences -s unspecified behavior. Note: Applications wishing to achieve the ISO POSIX (2003) behavior for -s should instead use -t d2. -wwidth, --width[=width] each output line is limited to width bytes from the input. --traditional accepts arguments in traditional form, see Traditional Usage below. Note: The XSI optional behavior for offset handling described in ISO POSIX (2003) is not supported unless the --traditional option is also specified. Pre-POSIX and XSI Specifications The LSB supports mixing options between the mandatory and XSI optional synopsis forms in ISO POSIX (2003). The LSB shall support the following options: -a is equivalent to -t a, selects named characters. -b is equivalent to -t o1, selects octal bytes. -c is equivalent to -t c, selects characters. -d is equivalent to -t u2, selects unsigned decimal two byte units. -f is equivalent to -t fF, selects floats. -i is equivalent to -t d2, selects decimal two byte units. Note: This usage may change in future releases; portable applications should use -t d2. -l is equivalent to -t d4, selects decimal longs. -o is equivalent to -t o2, selects octal two byte units. -x is equivalent to -t x2, selects hexadecimal two byte units. Note that the XSI option -s need not be supported. Traditional Usage If the --traditional option is specified, there may be between zero and three operands specified. If no operands are specified, then od shall read the standard input. If there is exactly one operand, and it is an offset of the form [+]offset[.][b], then it shall be interpreted as specified in ISO POSIX (2003). The file to be dumped shall be the standard input. If there are exactly two operands, and they are both of the form [+]offset[.][b], then the first shall be an treated as an offset (as above), and the second shall be a label, in the same format as the offset. If a label is specified, then the first output line produced for each input block shall be preceded by the input offset, cumulative across input files, of the next byte to be written, followed by the label, in parentheses. The label shall increment in the same manner as the offset. If there are three operands, then the first shall be the file to dump, the second the offset, and the third the label. Note: Recent versions of coreutils contain an od utility that conforms to ISO POSIX (2003). However, in April 2005, this version was not in widespread use. A future version of this specification may remove the differences. passwd Name passwd -- change user password Synopsis passwd [-x max] [-n min] [-w warn] [-i inact] name passwd {-l | -u} name Description passwd changes passwords for user and group accounts. A normal user may only change the password for their own account, the super user may change the password for any account. passwd also changes password expiry dates and intervals. Applications may not assume the format of prompts and anticipated input for user interaction, because they are unspecified. Options -x max sets the maximum number of days a password remains valid. -n min sets the minimum number of days before a password may be changed. -w warn sets the number of days warning the user will receive before their password will expire. -i inactive disables an account after the password has been expired for the given number of days. -l disables an account by changing the password to a value which matches no possible encrypted value. -u re-enables an account by changing the password back to its previous value. patch Name patch -- apply a diff file to an original Description patch is as specified in ISO POSIX (2003), but with extensions as listed below. Extensions --binary reads and write all files in binary mode, except for standard output and /dev/tty. This option has no effect on POSIX-compliant systems. -u, --unified interprets the patch file as a unified context diff. pidof Name pidof -- find the process ID of a running program Synopsis pidof [-s] [-x] [-o omitpid...] program... Description Return the process ID of a process which is running the program named on the command line. The pidof command is a system administration utility, see Path For System Administration Utilities. Options -s instructs the program to only return one pid. -x causes the program to also return process id's of shells running the named scripts. -o omits processes with specified process id. remove_initd Name remove_initd -- clean up boot script system modifications introduced by install_initd Synopsis /usr/lib/lsb/remove_initd initd_file Description remove_initd processes the removal of the modifications made to a distribution's boot script system by the install_initd program. This cleanup is performed in the preuninstall script of a package; however, the package manager is still responsible for removing the /etc/init.d file. See also Section 8.4. renice Name renice -- alter priority of running processes Description renice is as specified in ISO POSIX (2003), but with differences as listed below. Differences -n increment has unspecified behavior. sed Name sed -- stream editor Description sed is as specified in ISO POSIX (2003), but with differences as listed below. LSB Differences Certain aspects of internationalized regular expressions are optional; see Internationalization and Regular Expressions. sendmail Name sendmail -- an electronic mail transport agent Synopsis /usr/sbin/sendmail [options] [address...] Description To deliver electronic mail (email), applications shall support the interface provided by sendmail (described here). This interface shall be the default delivery method for applications. This program sends an email message to one or more recipients, routing the message as necessary. This program is not intended as a user interface routine. With no options, sendmail reads its standard input up to an end-of-file or a line consisting only of a single dot and sends a copy of the message found there to all of the addresses listed. It determines the network(s) to use based on the syntax and contents of the addresses. If an address is preceded by a backslash, '\', it is unspecified if the address is subject to local alias expansion. The format of messages shall be as defined in RFC 2822:Internet Message Format. Options -bm read mail from standard input and deliver it to the recipient addresses. This is the default mode of operation. -bp If the user has sufficient privilege, list information about messages currently in the mail queue. -bs use the SMTP protocol as described in RFC 2821:Simple Mail Transfer Protocol; read SMTP commands on standard input and write SMTP responses on standard output. In this mode, sendmail shall accept \r\n (CR-LF), as required by RFC 2821:Simple Mail Transfer Protocol, and \n (LF) line terminators. -F fullname explicitly set the full name of the sender for incoming mail unless the message already contains a From: message header. If the user running sendmail is not sufficiently trusted, then the actual sender may be indicated in the message, depending on the configuration of the agent. -f name explicitly set the envelope sender address for incoming mail. If there is no From: header, the address specified in the From: header will also be set. If the user running sendmail is not sufficiently trusted, then the actual sender shall be indicated in the message. -i ignore dots alone on lines by themselves in incoming messages. If this options is not specified, a line consisting of a single dot shall terminate the input. If -bs is also used, the behavior is unspecified. -odb deliver any mail in background, if supported; otherwise ignored. -odf deliver any mail in foreground, if supported; otherwise ignored. -oem or -em mail errors back to the sender. (default) -oep or -ep write errors to the standard error output. -oeq or -eq do not send notification of errors to the sender. This only works for mail delivered locally. -oi is equivalent to -i. -om indicate that the sender of a message should receive a copy of the message if the sender appears in an alias expansion. Ignored if aliases are not supported. -t read the message to obtain recipients from the To:, Cc:, and Bcc: headers in the message instead of from the command arguments. If a Bcc: header is present, it is removed from the message unless there is no To: or Cc: header, in which case a Bcc: header with no data is created, in accordance with RFC 2822:Internet Message Format. If there are any operands, the recipients list is unspecified. This option may be ignored when not in -bm mode (the default). Note: It is recommended that applications use as few options as necessary, none if possible. Exit status 0 successful completion on all addresses. This does not indicate successful delivery. >0 there was an error. Notes/Rationale This page is intended to reflect functionality provided by smail, exim and other implementations, not just the sendmail implementation. shutdown Name shutdown -- shut the system down Synopsis /sbin/shutdown [-t sec] [-h | -r] [-akfF] time [warning-message] /sbin/shutdown -c [warning-message] Description The shutdown command shall shut the system down in a secure way (first synopsis), or cancel a pending shutdown (second synopsis). When the shutdown is initiated, all logged-in users shall be notified immediately that the system is going down, and users shall be prevented from logging in to the system. The time specifies when the actual shutdown shall commence. See below for details. At the specified time all processes are first notified that the system is going down by the signal SIGTERM. After an interval (see -t) all processes shall be sent the signal SIGKILL. If neither the -h or the -r argument is specified, then the default behavior shall be to take the system to a runlevel where administrative tasks can be run. See also Run Levels. Note: This is sometimes referred to as "single user mode". The -h and -r options are mutually exclusive. If either the -h or -r options are specified, the system shall be halted or rebooted respectively. Standard Options -a use access control. See below. -t sec tell the system to wait sec seconds between sending processes the warning and the kill signal, before changing to another runlevel. The default period is three seconds. -k do not really shutdown; only send the warning messages to everybody. -r reboot after shutdown. -h halt after shutdown. Actions after halting are unspecified (e.g. power off). -f advise the system to skip file system consistency checks on reboot. -F advise the system to force file system consistency checks on reboot. -c cancel an already running shutdown. time specify when to shut down. The time argument shall have the following format: [now | [+]mins | hh:mm] If the format is hh:mm, hh shall specify the hour (1 or 2 digits) and mm is the minute of the hour (exactly two digits), and the shutdown shall commence at the next occurence of the specified time. If the format is mins (or +mins), where mins is a decimal number, shutdown shall commence in the specified number of minutes. The word now is an alias for +0. warning-message specify a message to send to all users. su Name su -- change user ID or become super-user Synopsis su [options] [-] [username [ARGS]] Description su is used to become another user during a login session. Invoked without a username, su defaults to becoming the super user. The optional argument - may be used to provide an environment similar to what the user would expect had the user logged in directly. The user will be prompted for a password, if appropriate. Invalid passwords will produce an error message. All attempts, both valid and invalid, are logged to detect abuses of the system. Applications may not assume the format of prompts and anticipated input for user interaction, because they are unspecified. An optional command can be executed. This is done by the shell specified in /etc/passwd for the target user unless the -s or -m options are used. Any arguments supplied after the username will be passed to the invoked shell (shell shall support the -c command line option in order for a command to be passed to it). The current environment is passed to the new shell. The value of $PATH is reset to /bin:/usr/bin for normal users, or /sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin for the super user. This may be changed with the ENV_PATH and ENV_SUPATH definitions in /etc/login.defs. When using the -m or -p options, the user's environment is not changed. A subsystem login is indicated by the presense of a "*" as the first character of the login shell. The given home directory will be used as the root of a new filesystem which the user is actually logged into. Standard Options - makes this a login shell. -c, --comand=command passes command to the invoked shell. It is passed directly to the invoked shell (using the shell's -c option), so its syntax is whatever that shell can accept. -m, -p, --preserve-environment does not reset environment variables, and keeps the same shell if it is present in /etc/shells. -s, --shell=shell uses shell instead of the default in /etc/passwd. The shell specified shall be present in /etc/shells. sync Name sync -- flush filesystem buffers Synopsis sync Description Force changed blocks to disk, update the super block. tar Name tar -- file archiver Description tar is as specified in SUSv2, but with differences as listed below. Differences Some elements of the Pattern Matching Notation are optional; see Internationalization and Pattern Matching Notation. -h doesn't dump symlinks; dumps the files they point to. -z filters the archive through gzip. umount Name umount -- unmount file systems Synopsis umount [-hV] umount -a [-nrv] [-t vfstype] umount [-nrv] device | dir... Description umount detaches the file system(s) mentioned from the file hierarchy. A file system is specified by giving the directory where it has been mounted. Standard Options -v invokes verbose mode. -n unmounts without writing in /etc/mtab. -r tries to remount read-only if unmounting fails. -a unmounts all of the file systems described in /etc/mtab except for the proc filesystem. -t vfstype indicates that the actions should only be taken on file systems of the specified type. More than one type may be specified in a comma separated list. The list of file system types can be prefixed with no to specify the file system types on which no action should be taken. -f forces unmount (in case of an unreachable NFS system). LSB Deprecated Options The behaviors specified in this section are expected to disappear from a future version of the LSB; applications should only use the non-LSB-deprecated behaviors. -V print version and exits. useradd Name useradd -- create a new user or update default new user information Synopsis useradd [-c comment] [-d home_dir] [-g initial_group] [-G group...] [-m [-k skeleton_dir]] [-p passwd] [-r] [-s shell] [-u uid [-o]] login useradd -D [-g default_group] [-b default_home] [-s default_shell] Description When invoked without the -D option, and with appropriate privilege, useradd creates a new user account using the values specified on the command line and the default values from the system. The new user account will be entered into the system files as needed, the home directory will be created, and initial files copied, depending on the command line options. When invoked with the -D option, useradd will either display the current default values, or, with appropriate privilege, update the default values from the command line. If no options are specified, useradd displays the current default values. The useradd command is a system administration utility, see Path For System Administration Utilities. Standard Options -c comment specifies the new user's password file comment field value. -d home_dir creates the new user using home_dir as the value for the user's login directory. The default is to append the login name to default_home and use that as the login directory name. -g initial_group specifies the group name or number of the user's initial login group. The group name shall exist. A group number shall refer to an already existing group. If -g is not specified, the implementation will follow the normal user default for that system. This may create a new group or choose a default group that normal users are placed in. Applications which require control of the groups into which a user is placed should specify -g. -G group[,...] specifies a list of supplementary groups which the user is also a member of. Each group is separated from the next by a comma, with no intervening whitespace. The groups are subject to the same restrictions as the group given with the -g option. The default is for the user to belong only to the initial group. -m [-k skeleton_dir] specifies the user's home directory will be created if it does not exist. The files contained in skeleton_dir will be copied to the home directory if the -k option is used, otherwise the files contained in /etc/skel will be used instead. Any directories contained in skeleton_dir or /etc/skel will be created in the user's home directory as well. The -k option is only valid in conjunction with the -m option. The default is to not create the directory and to not copy any files. -p passwd is the encrypted password, as returned by crypt(). The default is to disable the account. -r creates a system account, that is, a user with a UID in the range reserved for system account users. If there is not a UID free in the reserved range the command will fail. -s shell specifies the name of the user's login shell. The default is to leave this field blank, which causes the system to select the default login shell. -u uid [-o] specifies the numerical value of the user's ID. This value shall be unique, unless the -o option is used. The value shall be non-negative. The default is the smallest ID value greater than 499 which is not yet used. Change Default Options -b default_home specifies the initial path prefix for a new user's home directory. The user's name will be affixed to the end of default_home to create the new directory name if the -d option is not used when creating a new account. -g default_group specifies the group name or ID for a new user's initial group. The named group shall exist, and a numerical group ID shall have an existing entry. -s default_shell specifies the name of the new user's login shell. The named program will be used for all future new user accounts. -c comment specifies the new user's password file comment field value. Application Usage The -D option will typically be used by system administration packages. Most applications should not change defaults which will affect other applications and users. userdel Name userdel -- delete a user account and related files Synopsis userdel [-r] login Description Delete the user account named login. If there is also a group named login, this command may delete the group as well, or may leave it alone. The userdel command is a system administration utility, see Path For System Administration Utilities. Options -r removes files in the user's home directory along with the home directory itself. Files located in other file system will have to be searched for and deleted manually. usermod Name usermod -- modify a user account Synopsis usermod [-c comment] [-d home_dir [ -m]] [-g initial_group] [-G group [,...]] [-l login_name] [-p passwd] [-s shell] [-u uid [ -o]] login Description The usermod command shall modify an entry in the user account database. The usermod command is a system administration utility, see Path For System Administration Utilities. Options -c comment specifies the new value of the user's password file comment field. -d home_dir specifies the user's new login directory. If the -m option is given the contents of the current home directory will be moved to the new home directory, which is created if it does not already exist. -g initial_group specifies the group name or number of the user's new initial login group. The group name shall exist. A group number shall refer to an already existing group. -G group,[...] specifies a list of supplementary groups which the user is also a member of. Each group is separated from the next by a comma, with no intervening whitespace. The groups are subject to the same restrictions as the group given with the -g option. If the user is currently a member of a group which is not listed, the user will be removed from the group. -l login_name changes the name of the user from login to login_name. Nothing else is changed. In particular, the user's home directory name should probably be changed to reflect the new login name. -p passwd is the encrypted password, as returned by crypt(3). -s shell specifies the name of the user's new login shell. Setting this field to blank causes the system to select the default login shell. -u uid [-o] specifies the numerical value of the user's ID. This value shall be unique, unless the -o option is used. The value shall be non-negative. Any files which the user owns and which are located in the directory tree rooted at the user's home directory will have the file user ID changed automatically. Files outside of the user's home directory shall be altered manually. xargs Name xargs -- build and execute command lines from standard input Description xargs is as specified in ISO POSIX (2003), but with differences as listed below. Differences -E has unspecified behavior. -I has unspecified behavior. -L has unspecified behavior. Note: These options have been implemented in findutils-4.2.9, but this version of the utilities is not in widespread use as of April 2005. However, future versions of this specification will require support for these arguments. IV. Execution Environment Table of Contents 4. File System Hierarchy 5. Additional Recommendations 6. Additional Behaviors 7. Localization _________________________________________________________ Chapter 4. File System Hierarchy An LSB conforming implementation shall provide the mandatory portions of the filesystem hierarchy specified in the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard (FHS), together with any additional requirements made in this specification. An LSB conforming application shall conform to the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard. The FHS allows many components or subsystems to be optional. An application shall check for the existence of an optional component before using it, and should behave in a reasonable manner if the optional component is not present. The FHS requirement to locate the operating system kernel in either / or /boot does not apply if the operating system kernel does not exist as a file in the filesystem. The FHS specifies certain behaviors for a variety of commands if they are present (for example, ping or python). However, LSB applications shall not rely on any commands beyond those specified by the LSB. The mere existence of a command may not be used as an indication that the command behaves in any particular way. The following directories or links need not be present: /etc/X11 /usr/bin/X11 /usr/lib/X11 /proc _________________________________________________________ 4.1. /dev The following shall exist under /dev. Other devices may also exist in /dev. Device names may exist as symbolic links to other device nodes located in /dev or subdirectories of /dev. There is no requirement concerning major/minor number values. /dev/null An infinite data source and data sink. Data written to this device shall be discarded. Reads from this device shall always return end-of-file (EOF). /dev/zero This device is a source of zeroed out data. All data written to this device shall be discarded. A read from this device shall always return the requested number of bytes, each initialized to the value '\0'. /dev/tty In each process, a synonym for the controlling terminal associated with the process group of that process, if any. All reads and writes to this device shall behave as if the actual controlling terminal device had been opened. _________________________________________________________ 4.2. User Accounting Databases The Filesystem Hierarchy Standard specifies two optional locations for user accounting databases used by the getutent(), getutent_r(), getutxent(), getutxid(), getutxline(), and pututxline() functions. These are /var/run/utmp and /var/run/wtmp. The LSB does not specify the format or structure of these files, or even if they are files at all. They should be used only as "magic cookies" to the utmpname() function. _________________________________________________________ 4.3. Path For System Administration Utilities Certain utilities used for system administration (and other privilieged commands) may be stored in /sbin, /usr/sbin, and /usr/local/sbin. Applications requiring to use commands identified as system administration utilities should add these directories to their PATH. By default, as described in ISO POSIX (2003), standard utilities shall be found on the PATH returned by getconf CS_PATH. _________________________________________________________ Chapter 5. Additional Recommendations 5.1. Minimal granted Directory and File permissions In this Chapter "System" means an "LSB conforming implementation" and "application" means an "LSB conforming (third party vendor) application". The system shall grant to the application read and execute permissions on files needed to use all system interfaces (ABIs) required by the LSB specification. _________________________________________________________ 5.2. Recommendations for applications on ownership and permissions 5.2.1. Directory Write Permissions The application should not depend on having directory write permission outside /tmp, /var/tmp, invoking user's home directory and /var/opt/package, (where package is the name of the application package). The application should not depend on owning these directories. For these directories the application should be able to work with directory write permissions restricted by the S_ISVTXT bit (otherwise known as the "sticky bit"). _________________________________________________________ 5.2.2. File Write Permissions The application should not depend on file write permission on files not owned by the user it runs under with the exception of its personal inbox /var/mail/username. _________________________________________________________ 5.2.3. File Read and execute Permissions The application should not depend on having read permission to every file and directory. _________________________________________________________ 5.2.4. Suid and Sgid Permissions The application should not depend on the set user ID or set group ID (the S_ISUID or S_ISGID permissions of a file not packaged with the application. Instead, the distribution is responsible for assuming that all system commands have the required permissions and work correctly. Rationale: In order to implement common security policies it is strongly advisable for applications to use the minimum set of security attributes necessary for correct operation. Applications that require substantial appropriate privilege are likely to cause problems with such security policies. _________________________________________________________ 5.2.5. Privileged users In general, applications should not depend on running as a privileged user. This specification uses the term "appropriate privilege" throughout to identify operations that cannot be achieved without some special granting of additional privilege. Applications that have a reason to run with appropriate privilege should outline this reason clearly in their documentation. Users of the application should be informed, that "this application demands security privileges, which could interfere with system security". The application should not contain binary-only software that requires being run with appropriate privilege, as this makes security auditing harder or even impossible. _________________________________________________________ 5.2.6. Changing permissions The application shall not change permissions of files and directories that do not belong to its own package. Should an application require that certain files and directories not directly belonging to the package have a particular ownership, the application shall document this requirement, and may fail during installation if the permissions on these files is inappropriate. _________________________________________________________ 5.2.7. Removable Media (Cdrom, Floppy, etc.) Applications that expect to be runnable from removable media should not depend on logging in as a privileged user, and should be prepared to deal with a restrictive environment. Examples of such restrictions could be default mount options that disable set-user/group-ID attributes, disabling block or character-special files on the medium, or remapping the user and group IDs of files away from any privileged value. Rationale: System vendors and local system administrators want to run applications from removable media, but want the possibility to control what the application can do. _________________________________________________________ 5.2.8. Installable applications Where the installation of an application needs additional privileges, it must clearly document all files and system databases that are modified outside of those in /opt/pkg-name and /var/opt/pkg-name, other than those that may be updated by system logging or auditing activities. Without this, the local system administrator would have to blindly trust a piece of software, particularly with respect to its security. _________________________________________________________ Chapter 6. Additional Behaviors 6.1. Mandatory Optional Behaviors This section specifies behaviors in which there is optional behavior in one of the standards on which the LSB relies, and where the LSB requires a specific behavior. Note: The LSB does not require the kernel to be Linux; the set of mandated options reflects current existing practice, but may be modified in future releases. LSB conforming implementations shall support the following options defined within the ISO POSIX (2003): _POSIX_FSYNC _POSIX_MAPPED_FILES _POSIX_MEMLOCK _POSIX_MEMLOCK_RANGE _POSIX_MEMORY_PROTECTION _POSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING _POSIX_REALTIME_SIGNALS _POSIX_THREAD_ATTR_STACKADDR _POSIX_THREAD_ATTR_STACKSIZE _POSIX_THREAD_PROCESS_SHARED _POSIX_THREAD_SAFE_FUNCTIONS _POSIX_THREADS The opendir() function shall consume a file descriptor in the same fashion as open(), and therefore may fail with EMFILE or ENFILE. The START and STOP termios characters shall be changeable, as described as optional behavior in the "General Terminal Interface" section of the ISO POSIX (2003). The access() function function shall fail with errno set to EINVAL if the amode argument contains bits other than those set by the bitwise inclusive OR of R_OK, W_OK, X_OK and F_OK. The link() function shall require access to the existing file in order to succeed, as described as optional behavior in the ISO POSIX (2003). Calling unlink() on a directory shall fail. Calling link() specifying a directory as the first argument shall fail. See also unlink. Note: Linux allows rename() on a directory without having write access, but the LSB does not require this. _________________________________________________________ 6.1.1. Special Requirements LSB conforming systems shall enforce certain special additional restrictions above and beyond those required by ISO POSIX (2003). Note: These additional restrictions are required in order to support the testing and certification programs associated with the LSB. In each case, these are values that defined macros must not have; conforming applications that use these values shall trigger a failure in the interface that is otherwise described as a "may fail". The fcntl() function shall treat the "cmd" value -1 as invalid. The whence value -1 shall be an invalid value for the lseek(), fseek() and fcntl() functions. The value -5 shall be an invalid signal number. If the sigaddset() or sigdelset() functions are passed an invalid signal number, they shall return with EINVAL. Implementations are only required to enforce this requirement for signal numbers which are specified to be invalid by this specification (such as the -5 mentioned above). The mode value -1 to the access() function shall be treated as invalid. A value of -1 shall be an invalid "_PC_..." value for pathconf(). A value of -1 shall be an invalid "_SC..." value for sysconf(). The nl_item value -1 shall be invalid for nl_langinfo(). The value -1 shall be an invalid "_CS_..." value for confstr(). The value "a" shall be an invalid mode argument to popen(). _________________________________________________________ Chapter 7. Localization 7.1. Introduction In order to install a message catalog, the installation procedure shall supply the message catalog in a format readable by the msgfmt utility, which shall be invoked to compile the message catalog into an appropriate binary format on the target system. Rationale: The original intent was to allow an application to contain the binary GNU MO format files. However, the format of these files is not officially stable, hence it is necessary to compile these catalogs on the target system. These binary catalogs may differ from architecture to architecture as well. The resulting binary message catalog shall be located in the package's private area under /opt, and the application may use bindtextdomain() to specify this location. Implementations shall support the POSIX and C locales as specified in ISO POSIX (2003). Implementations may define additional locale categories not defined by that standard. Note: Implementations choosing additional locale categories should be aware of ISO/IEC TR14652 and are advised not to choose names that conflict with that specification. If implementations provide locale categories whose names are part of the FDCC set of ISO/IEC TR14652, they should behave as defined by that specification. _________________________________________________________ 7.2. Regular Expressions Utilities that process regular expressions shall support Basic Regular Expressions and Extended Regular Expressions as specified in ISO POSIX (2003), with the following exceptions: Range expression (such as [a-z]) can be based on code point order instead of collating element order. Equivalence class expression (such as [=a=]) and multi-character collating element expression (such as [.ch.]) are optional. Handling of a multi-character collating element is optional. This affects at least the following utilities: * awk (see awk) * grep (see grep) (including egrep, see egrep) * sed (see sed) It also affects the behavior of interfaces in the base libraries, including at least * regexec() (see regexec) _________________________________________________________ 7.3. Pattern Matching Notation Utilities that perform filename pattern matching (also known as Filename Globbing) shall do it as specified in ISO POSIX (2003), Pattern Matching Notation, with the following exceptions: Pattern bracket expressions (such as [a-z]) can be based on code point order instead of collating element order. Equivalence class expression (such as [=a=]) and multi-character collating element expression (such as [.ch.]) are optional. Handling of a multi-character collating element is optional. This affects at least the following utilities: cpio (cpio), find (find) and tar (tar). V. System Initialization Table of Contents 8. System Initialization _________________________________________________________ Chapter 8. System Initialization 8.1. Cron Jobs In addition to the individual user crontab files specified by ISO POSIX (2003) stored under /var/spool/cron, the process that executes scheduled commands shall also process the following additional crontab files: /etc/crontab, /etc/cron.d/*. The installation of a package shall not modify the configuration file /etc/crontab. If a package wishes to install a job that has to be executed periodically, it shall place an executable file in one of the following directories: /etc/cron.daily /etc/cron.weekly /etc/cron.monthly As these directory names suggest, the files within them are executed on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis, respectively, under the control of an entry in one of the system crontab files, at an unspecified time of day. See below for the rules concerning the names of files in these directories. Note: It is recommended that files installed in any of these directories be scripts (e.g. shell scripts, Perl scripts, etc.) so that they may be modified by the local system administrator. The scripts in these directories should check if all necessary programs are installed before they try to execute them. Otherwise, problems will arise if a package is removed (but not purged), since the configuration files are kept on the system in this situation. If a certain task has to be executed at a different frequency (e.g. more frequently than daily), the package shall install a file /etc/cron.d/cron-name. The file shall have the same format as that described for the crontab command in ISO POSIX (2003), except that there shall be an additional field, username, before the name of the command to execute. For completeness, the seven fields shall be: 1. Minute [0,59] 2. Hour [0,23] 3. Day of the month [1,31] 4. Month of the year [1,12] 5. Day of the week [0,6] (with 0=Sunday) 6. Username 7. command [args ...] This file shall be processed by the system automatically, with the named command being run at the specified time, as the specified username. To avoid namespace conflicts in the /etc/cron.* directories, the filenames used by LSB-compliant packages in /etc/cron.daily, /etc/cron.weekly, /etc/cron.monthly, or /etc/cron.d shall come from a managed namespace. These filenames may be assigned using one of the following methods: * Assigned names. Such names must be chosen from the character set [a-z0-9]. In order to avoid conflicts these names shall be reserved through the Linux Assigned Names and Numbers Authority (LANANA). Information about the LANANA may be found at www.lanana.org. Note: Commonly used names should be reserved in advance; developers for projects should be encouraged reserve names from LANANA, so that each distribution can use the same name, and to avoid conflicts with other projects. * Hierarchical names. Script names in this category take the form: --...-, where name is taken from the character set [a-z0-9], and where there may be one or more components. may either be an LSB provider name assigned by the LANANA, or it may be owners' DNS name in lower case, with at least one '.'. e.g. "debian.org", "staroffice.sun.com", etc. The LSB provider name assigned by LANANA shall only consist of the ASCII characters [a-z0-9]. * Reserved names. Names that begin with the character '_' are reserved for distribution use only. These names should be used for essential system packages only. _________________________________________________________ 8.2. Init Script Actions Init files provided by LSB applications shall accept one argument, saying what to do: start start the service stop stop the service restart stop and restart the service if the service is already running, otherwise start the service try-restart restart the service if the service is already running reload cause the configuration of the service to be reloaded without actually stopping and restarting the service force-reload cause the configuration to be reloaded if the service supports this, otherwise restart the service if it is running status print the current status of the service The start, stop, restart, force-reload, and status commands shall be supported by all init files; the reload and the try-restart options are optional. Other init script actions may be defined by the init script. Init files shall ensure that they will behave sensibly if invoked with start when the service is already running, or with stop when it isn't, and that they don't kill unfortunately-named user processes. The best way to achieve this is to use the init-script functions provided by /lib/lsb/init-functions. If a service reloads its configuration automatically (as in the case of cron, for example), the reload option of the init file shall behave as if the configuration has been reloaded successfully. The restart, try-restart, reload and force-reload action may be atomic; i.e. if a service is known not be operational after a restart or reload, the script may return an error without any further action. These executable files shall not fail obscurely when the configuration files remain but the package has been removed, as the default in [the packaging system] is to leave configuration files on the system after the package has been removed. Only when it is executed with the [purge] option will [the packaging system] remove configuration files. Therefore, you should include a test statement at the top of the file, like this: test -f program-executed-later-in-file || exit 5 or take the equivalent action if the init file is not a shell script. If the status command is given, the init script will return the following exit status codes. 0 program is running or service is OK 1 program is dead and /var/run pid file exists 2 program is dead and /var/lock lock file exists 3 program is not running 4 program or service status is unknown 5-99 reserved for future LSB use 100-149 reserved for distribution use 150-199 reserved for application use 200-254 reserved In the case of init script commands other than "status" (i.e., "start", "stop", "restart", "try-restart", "reload", and "force-reload"), the init script shall return an exit status of zero if the action described by the argument has been successful. Otherwise, the exit status shall be non-zero, as defined below. In addition to straightforward success, the following situations are also to be considered successful: * restarting a service (instead of reloading it) with the "force-reload" argument * running "start" on a service already running * running "stop" on a service already stopped or not running * running "restart" on a service already stopped or not running * running "try-restart" on a service already stopped or not running In case of an error, while processing any init script action except for "status", the init script shall print an error message and return one of the following non-zero exit status codes. 1 generic or unspecified error (current practice) 2 invalid or excess argument(s) 3 unimplemented feature (for example, "reload") 4 user had insufficient privilege 5 program is not installed 6 program is not configured 7 program is not running 8-99 reserved for future LSB use 100-149 reserved for distribution use 150-199 reserved for application use 200-254 reserved Error and status messages should be printed with the logging functions such as log_failure_msg and so on. Scripts may write to standard error or standard output, but implementations need not present text written to standard error/output to the user or do anything else with it. Since init files may be run manually by a system administrator with non-standard environment variable values for PATH, USER, LOGNAME, etc. init files shall not depend on the values of these environment variables. They should set them to some known/default values if they are needed. _________________________________________________________ 8.3. Comment Conventions for Init Scripts LSB applications which need to execute script(s) at bootup and/or shutdown may provide one or more init.d files. These files are installed by the install_initd program described below, which copies it into a standard directory and makes whatever other adjustments (creation of symlinks, creation of entries in a database, etc.) are necessary so that the script can be run at boot-time. Note: This specification does not require, but is designed to allow, the development of a system which runs boot scripts in parallel. Hence, enforced-serialization of scripts is avoided unless it is explicitly necessary. In the init.d file, information about the shell script shall be delimited by the lines "### BEGIN INIT INFO" and "### END INIT INFO". These delimiter lines may containg trailing whitespace, which shall be ignored. Inside this block there shall be lines of the form "# {keyword}: [arg1] [arg2] ...". (All lines inside this block start with a hash ('#') character in the first column, so that shell treats them as comments.) There shall be exactly one space character between "#" and the keyword. Note: More than one space, or a tab character, indicates the continuation line. The following keywords, with their arguments are defined in this specification: # Provides: boot_facility_1 [ boot_facility_2 ...] # Required-Start: boot_facility_1 [ boot_facility_2 ...] # Required-Stop: boot_facility_1 [ boot_facility_2 ...] # Should-Start: boot_facility_1 [ boot_facility_2 ...] # Should-Stop: boot_facility_1 [ boot_facility_2 ...] # Default-Start: run_level_1 [ run_level_2 ...] # Default-Stop: run_level_1 [ run_level_2 ...] # Short-Description: short_description # Description: multiline_description Additional keywords may be defined in future LSB specifications. Distributions may define local extensions by using the prefix "X-[distribution name]" --- for example, "X-RedHat-foobardecl", or "X-Debian-xyzzydecl". An init.d shell script may declare using the "Required-Start: " header that it shall not be run until certain boot facilities are provided. This information is used by the installation tool or the boot-time boot-script execution facility to assure that init scripts are run in the correct order. When an init script is run with a "start" argument, the boot facility or facilities specified in the "Provides" header shall be considered present, and hence init scripts which require those boot facilities would then be eligble to be run. When an init script is run with a "stop" argument, the boot facilities specified in the "Provides" header are considered no longer present. There are naming conventions for boot facilities and system facilities, as described in a following section. Similarly, the "Required-Stop:" header defines which facilities shall still be available during the shutdown of that service. Hence, the init script system should avoid stopping shell scripts which provide those facilities until this shell script is stopped. The "Should-Start:" header defines which facilities if present should be started before this service. This allows for weak dependencies which do not cause the service to fail if a facility is not available. But may cause reduced functionality of the service. Compliant applications should not rely on the existence of this feature. The "Should-Stop:" header defines which facilities should be still available during the shutdown of that service. The "Default-Start" and "Default-Stop" headers define which run levels should by default run the script with a start or stop argument, respectively, to start or stop the services controlled by the init script. Note: For example, if you want a service to run in runlevels 3, 4, and 5 (only), specify "Default-Start: 3 4 5" and "Default-Stop: 0 1 2 6". The "Short-Description" and "Description" header fields are used to provide text which describes the actions of the init script. The "short_description" shall be a relatively short, pithy description of the init script, where as the "multiline_description" can be a much longer piece of text that may span mulitple lines. In a multiline description, each continuation line shall begin with a '#' followed by tab character or a '#' followed by at least two space characters. The multiline description is terminated by the first line that does not match this criteria. The comment conventions described in this session are only required for use by LSB-compliant applications; system init scripts as provided by LSB-compliant run-time environments are not required to use the scheme outlined here. _________________________________________________________ 8.4. Installation and Removal of init.d Files An init.d file is installed in /etc/init.d (which may be a symlink to another location). This can be done by the package installer. See Script Names. During the package's postinstall script, the program /usr/lib/lsb/install_initd configures the distribution's boot script system to call the package's init.d file at the appropriate time. Note: For example, install_initd might create symbolic links in /etc/rc2.d and other such directories which point to the files in /etc/init.d (or it might update a database, or some other mechanism). The init.d files themselves should already be in /etc/init.d before running install_initd. The install_initd program takes a single argument, the pathname to the /etc/init.d file. For example: /usr/lib/lsb/install_initd /etc/init.d/example.com-coffeed The install_initd program shall return an exit status of zero if the init.d file has been successfully installed or if the the init.d file was already installed. If the required boot facilities cannot be fulfilled an exit status of one shall be returned and the init.d file shall not be installed. When a software package is removed, the package's preuninstall script shall call /usr/lib/lsb/remove_initd and pass the pathname to the /etc/init.d file. The package manager is still responsible for removing the /etc/init.d file; the remove_initd program is provided in case the distribution needs to clean up any other modifications in the distribution's boot script system that might have been made by the install_initd program. For example: /usr/lib/lsb/remove_initd /etc/init.d/example.com-coffeed The remove_initd program shall return an exit status of zero if the init.d file has been successfully removed or if the the init.d file is not installed. If another init.d file which depends on a boot facility provided by this init.d file is installed, an exit status of one shall be returned and the init.d file shall remained installed. Note: There should be a tool available to the user (e.g., RedHat's chkconfig) which can be used by the system administrator to easily manipulate at which init levels a particular init.d script is started or stopped. This specification currently does not specify such an interface, however. _________________________________________________________ 8.5. Run Levels The following run levels are specified for use by the "Default-Start:" and "Default-Stop:" specifiers as defined by the section Comment Conventions for Init Scripts. Many LSB run-time environments commonly use these run level definitions, and in the absence of other considerations, providers of run-time environments are strongly encouraged to follow this convention to provide consistency for system administrators who need to work with multiple distributions. However, it is not required that LSB-compliant run-time environments use these run levels; the distribution-provided install_initd script may map the run levels specified below to whatever distribution-specified run levels are most appropriate. 0 halt 1 single user mode 2 multiuser with no network services exported 3 normal/full multiuser 4 reserved for local use, default is normal/full multiuser 5 multiuser with xdm or equivalent 6 reboot _________________________________________________________ 8.6. Facility Names Boot facilities are used to indicate dependencies in init scripts, as defined in a previous section. Facility names that begin with a dollar sign ('$') are system facility names, defined by the LSB, and SHALL be provided by distributions. Note: The dollar sign does not indicate variable expansion as in many Linux utilities. Starting a facility name with a dollar sign is merely a way of dividing the namespace between the system and applications. LSB applications shall not provide facilities that begin with a dollar sign. This document defines the following facility names: $local_fs all local filesystems are mounted $network low level networking (ethernet card; may imply PCMCIA running) $named daemons which may provide hostname resolution (if present) are running. For example, daemons to query DNS, NIS+, or LDAP. $portmap daemons providing SunRPC/ONCRPC portmapping service as defined in RFC 1833 (if present) are running $remote_fs all remote filesystems are mounted. In some LSB run-time environments, filesystems such as /usr may be remote. Many applications that require $local_fs will probably require also require $remote_fs. $syslog system logger is operational $time the system time has been set, for example by using a network-based time program such as ntp or rdate, or via the hardware Real Time Clock. Other (non-system) facilities may be defined by other LSB applications. These facilities shall be named using the same conventions defined for naming init.d script names. Commonly, the facility provided by an LSB application init.d script will have the same name as the name assigned to the init.d script. _________________________________________________________ 8.7. Script Names Since init scripts live in a single directory, they must share a single namespace. To avoid conflicts, three means of assigning names from this namespace are provided: * Assigned names. Such names must be chosen from characters in the set [a-z0-9]. This category is desirable for scripts which system administrators may need to run manually: e.g., /etc/init.d/named restart. In order to avoid conflicts these names shall be reserved through the Linux Assigned Names and Numbers Authority (LANANA). Information about the LANANA may be found at www.lanana.org. Note: Commonly used names should be reserved in advance; developers for projects are encouraged to reserve names from LANANA, so that each distribution can use the same name for the project's init script and avoid conflicts with other projects. * Hierarchical names. Script names in this category take the form --...-, where name is chosen from characters in the set [a-z0-9], and where there may be one or more components. may either be an LSB provider name assigned by the LANANA, or it may be the owners' DNS name in lower case, with at least one '.' (e.g., "debian.org", or "staroffice.sun.com"). The LSB provider name assigned by LANANA shall consist only of characters chosen from the set [a-z0-9]. * Reserved names. Names in this category begin with the character '_', and are reserved for distribution use only. These names should be used for essential system packages only, and in general use of this part of the namespace is highly discouraged. Note: In general, if a package or some system function is likely to be used on multiple systems, the package developers or the distribution should get a registered name through LANANA, and distributions should strive to use the same name whenever possible. For applications which may not be essential or may not be commonly installed, the hierarchical namespace may be more appropriate. An advantage to the hierarchical namespace is that there is no need to consult with the LANANA before obtaining an assigned name. Short names are highly desirable, since system administrators may need to manually start and stop services. Given this, they should be standardized on a per-package basis. This is the rationale behind having the LANANA organization assign these names. The LANANA may be called upon to handle other namespace issues, such as package/prerequisites naming. _________________________________________________________ 8.8. Init Script Functions Each LSB-compliant init.d script shall source the file /lib/lsb/init-functions. This file shall cause the following shell script commands to be defined in an unspecified manner. Note: This can be done either by adding a directory to the PATH variable which defines these commands, or by defining shell aliases. Although the commands made available via this mechanism need not be LSB conforming applications in their own right, applications that use them should only depend on features described in the LSB. Conforming scripts shall not specify the "exit on error" option (i.e. set -e) when sourcing this file, or calling any of the commands thus made available. The start_daemon, killproc and pidofproc functions shall use the following algorithm for determining the status and the process identifiers of the specified program. 1. If the -p pidfile option is specified, and the named pidfile exists, a single line at the start of the pidfile shall be read. If this line contains one or more numeric values, separated by spaces, these values shall be used. 2. Otherwise, /var/run/basename.pid shall be read in a similar fashion. If this contains one or more numeric values on the first line, these values shall be used. 3. Optionally, if neither of the above methods has determined the process identifiers required, implementations may use unspecified additional methods to locate the process identifiers required. The method used to determine the status is implementation defined, but should allow for non-binary programs. Note: Commonly used methods check either for the existence of the /proc/pid directory or use /proc/pid/exe and /proc/pid/cmdline. Relying only on /proc/pid/exe is discouraged since the LSB does not specify the existence of, or semantics for, /proc. Additionally, using /proc/pid/exe may result in a not-running status for daemons that are written in a script language. Conforming implementations may use other mechanisms besides those based on pidfiles, unless the -p pidfile option has been used. Conforming applications should not rely on such mechanisms and should always use a pidfile. When a program is stopped, it should delete its pidfile. Multiple process identifiers shall be separated by a single space in the pidfile and in the output of pidofproc. start_daemon [-f] [-n nicelevel] [-p pidfile] pathname [args...] This runs the specified program as a daemon. The start_daemon function shall check if the program is already running using the algorithm given above. If so, it shall not start another copy of the daemon unless the -f option is given. The -n option specifies a nice level. See nice. start_daemon shall return the LSB defined exit status codes. It shall return 0 if the program has been successfully started or is running and not 0 otherwise. killproc [-p pidfile] pathname [signal] The killproc function shall stop the specified program. The program is found using the algorithm given above. If a signal is specified, using the -signal_name or -signal_number syntaxes as specified by the kill command, the program is sent that signal. Otherwise, a SIGTERM followed by a SIGKILL after an unspecified number of seconds shall be sent. If a program has been terminated, the pidfile should be removed if the terminated process has not already done so. The killproc function shall return the LSB defined exit status codes. If called without a signal, it shall return 0 if the program has been stopped or is not running and not 0 otherwise. If a signal is given, it shall return 0 only if the program is running. pidofproc [-p pidfile] pathname The pidofproc function shall return one or more process identifiers for a particular daemon using the algorithm given above. Only process identifiers of running processes should be returned. Multiple process identifiers shall be separated by a single space. Note: A process may exit between pidofproc discovering its identity and the caller of pidofproc being able to act on that identity. As a result, no test assertion can be made that the process identifiers returned by pidofproc shall be running processes. The pidofproc function shall return the LSB defined exit status codes for "status". It shall return 0 if the program is running and not 0 otherwise. log_success_msg message The log_success_msg function shall cause the system to print a success message. Note: The message should be relatively short; no more than 60 characters is highly desirable. log_failure_msg message The log_failure_msg function shall cause the system to print a failure message. Note: The message should be relatively short; no more than 60 characters is highly desirable. log_warning_msg message The log_warning_msg function shall cause the system to print a warning message. Note: The message should be relatively short; no more than 60 characters is highly desirable. VI. Users & Groups Table of Contents 9. Users & Groups _________________________________________________________ Chapter 9. Users & Groups 9.1. User and Group Database The format of the User and Group databases is not specified. Programs may only read these databases using the provided API. Changes to these databases should be made using the provided commands. _________________________________________________________ 9.2. User & Group Names Below is a table of required mnemonic user and group names. This specification makes no attempt to numerically assign uid or gid numbers. The exception is the uid and gid for "root" which are equal to 0. Table 9-1. Required User & Group Names User Group Comments root root Administrative user with all appropriate privileges bin bin Legacy UID/GID[a] daemon daemon Legacy UID/GID[b] Notes: a. The 'bin' UID/GID is included for compatibility with legacy applications. New applications should no longer use the 'bin' UID/GID. b. The 'daemon' UID/GID was used as an unprivileged UID/GID for daemons to execute under in order to limit their access to the system. Generally daemons should now run under individual UID/GIDs in order to further partition daemons from one another. Below is a table of optional mnemonic user and group names. This specification makes no attempt to numerically assign uid or gid numbers. If the username exists on a system, then they should be in the suggested corresponding group. These user and group names are for use by distributions, not by applications. Table 9-2. Optional User & Group Names User Group Comments adm adm Administrative special privileges lp lp Printer special privileges sync sync Login to sync the system shutdown shutdown Login to shutdown the system halt halt Login to halt the system mail mail Mail special privileges news news News special privileges uucp uucp UUCP special privileges operator root Operator special privileges man man Man special privileges nobody nobody Used by NFS The differences in numeric values of the uids and gids between systems on a network can be reconciled via NIS, rdist(1), rsync(1), or ugidd(8). Only a minimum working set of "user names" and their corresponding "user groups" are required. Applications cannot assume non system user or group names will be defined. Applications cannot assume any policy for the default umask or the default directory permissions a user may have. Applications should enforce user only file permissions on private files such as mailboxes. The location of the users home directory is also not defined by policy other than the recommendations of the FHS and shall be obtained by the *pwnam(3) calls. _________________________________________________________ 9.3. UID Ranges The system UIDs from 0 to 99 should be statically allocated by the system, and shall not be created by applications. The system UIDs from 100 to 499 should be reserved for dynamic allocation by system administrators and post install scripts using useradd(1). _________________________________________________________ 9.4. Rationale The purpose of specifying optional users and groups is to reduce the potential for name conflicts between applications and distributions. _________________________________________________________ Appendix A.

Payload Section The Payload section contains a compressed cpio archive. The format of this section is defined by RFC 1952: GZIP File Format Specification. When uncompressed, the cpio archive contains a sequence of records for each file. Each record contains a CPIO Header, Filename, Padding, and File Data. Table 1-15. CPIO File Format CPIO Header Header structure as defined below. Filename NUL terminated ASCII string containing the name of the file. Padding 0-3 bytes as needed to align the file stream to a 4 byte boundary. File data The contents of the file. Padding 0-3 bytes as needed to align the file stream to a 4 byte boundary. The CPIO Header uses the following header structure (sometimes referred to as "new ASCII" or "SVR4 cpio"). All numbers are stored as ASCII representations of their hexadecimal value with leading zeros as needed to fill the field. With the exception of c_namesize and the corresponding name string, and c_checksum, all information contained in the CPIO Header is also represented in the Header Section. The values in in the CPIO Header shall match the values contained in the Header Section. struct { char c_magic[6]; char c_ino[8]; char c_mode[8]; char c_uid[8]; char c_gid[8]; char c_nlink[8]; char c_mtime[8]; char c_filesize[8]; char c_devmajor[8]; char c_devminor[8]; char c_rdevmajor[8]; char c_rdevminor[8]; char c_namesize[8]; char c_checksum[8]; }; c_magic Value identifying this cpio format. This value shall be "070701". c_ino This field contains the inode number from the filesystem from which the file was read. This field is ignored when installing a package. This field shall match the corresponding value in the RPMTAG_FILEINODES index in the Header section. c_mode Permission bits of the file. This is an ascii representation of the hexadecimal number representing the bit as defined for the st_mode field of the stat structure defined for the stat function. This field shall match the corresponding value in the RPMTAG_FILEMODES index in the Header section. c_uid Value identifying this owner of this file. This value matches the uid value of the corresponding user in the RPMTAG_FILEUSERNAME as found on the system where this package was built. The username specified in RPMTAG_FILEUSERNAME should take precedence when installing the package. c_gid Value identifying this group of this file. This value matches the gid value of the corresponding user in the RPMTAG_FILEGROUPNAME as found on the system where this package was built. The groupname specified in RPMTAG_FILEGROUPNAME should take precedence when installing the package. c_nlink Value identifying the number of links associated with this file. If the value is greater than 1, then this filename will be linked to 1 or more files in this archive that has a matching value for the c_ino, c_devmajor and c_devminor fields. c_mtime Value identifying the modification time of the file when it was read. This field shall match the corresponding value in the RPMTAG_FILEMTIMES index in the Header section. c_filesize Value identifying the size of the file. This field shall match the corresponding value in the RPMTAG_FILESIZES index in the Header section. c_devmajor The major number of the device containing the file system from which the file was read. With the exception of processing files with c_nlink >1, this field is ignored when installing a package. This field shall match the corresponding value in the RPMTAG_FILEDEVICES index in the Header section. c_devminor The minor number of the device containing the file system from which the file was read. With the exception of processing files with c_nlink >1, this field is ignored when installing a package. This field shall match the corresponding value in the RPMTAG_FILEDEVICES index in the Header section. c_rdevmajor The major number of the raw device containing the file system from which the file was read. This field is ignored when installing a package. This field shall match the corresponding value in the RPMTAG_RDEVS index in the Header section. c_rdevminor The minor number of the raw device containing the file system from which the file was read. This field is ignored when installing a package. This field shall match the corresponding value in the RPMTAG_RDEVS index in the Header section. c_namesize Value identifying the length of the filename, which is located immediately following the CPIO Header structure. c_checksum Value containing the CRC checksum of the file data. This field is not used, and shall contain the value "00000000". This field is ignored when installing a package. A record with the filename "TRAILER!!!" indicates the last record in the archive. _________________________________________________________ 1.2. Package Script Restrictions Scripts used as part of the package install and uninstall shall only use commands and interfaces that are specified by the LSB. All other commands are not guaranteed to be present, or to behave in expected ways. Packages shall not use RPM triggers. Packages shall not depend on the order in which scripts are executed (pre-install, pre-uninstall, &c), when doing an upgrade. _________________________________________________________ 1.3. Package Tools The LSB does not specify the interface to the tools used to manipulate LSB-conformant packages. Each conforming distribution shall provide documentation for installing LSB packages. _________________________________________________________ 1.4. Package Naming Packages supplied by distributions and applications must follow the following rules for the name field within the package. These rules are not required for the filename of the package file itself.[4] The following rules apply to the name field alone, not including any release or version.[5] * If the name begins with "lsb-" and contains no other hyphens, the name shall be assigned by the Linux Assigned Names and Numbers Authority (LANANA), which shall maintain a registry of LSB names. The name may be registered by either a distribution or an application. * If the package name begins with "lsb-" and contains more than one hyphen (for example "lsb-distro.example.com-database" or "lsb-gnome-gnumeric"), then the portion of the package name between first and second hyphens shall either be an LSB provider name assigned by the LANANA, or it may be one of the owners' fully-qualified domain names in lower case (e.g., "debian.org", "staroffice.sun.com"). The LSB provider name assigned by LANANA shall only consist of the ASCII characters [a-z0-9]. The provider name or domain name may be either that of a distribution or an application. * Package names containing no hyphens are reserved for use by distributions. Applications must not use such names.[6] * Package names which do not start with "lsb-" and which contain a hyphen are open to both distributions and applications. Distributions may name packages in any part of this namespace. They are encouraged to use names from one of the other namespaces available to them, but this is not required due to the large amount of current practice to the contrary.[7] Applications may name their packages this way, but only if the portion of the name before the first hyphen is a provider name or registered domain name as described above.[8]Note that package names in this namespace are available to both the distribution and an application. Distributions and applications will need to consider this potential for conflicts when deciding to use these names rather than the alternatives (such as names starting with "lsb-"). _________________________________________________________ 1.5. Package Dependencies Packages shall have a dependency that indicates which LSB modules are required. LSB module descriptions are dash seperated tuples containing the name 'lsb', the module name, and the architecture name. The following dependencies may be used. lsb-core-arch This dependency is used to indicate that the application is dependent on features contained in the LSB-Core specification. lsb-core-noarch This dependency is used to indicate that the application is dependent on features contained in the LSB-Core specification and that the package does not contain any architecture specific files. These dependencies shall have a version of 3.0. Packages shall not depend on other system-provided dependencies. They shall not depend on non-system-provided dependencies unless those dependencies are fulfilled by packages which are part of the same application. A package may only provide a virtual package name which is registered to that application. Other modules in the LSB may supplement this list. The architecture specific dependencies are described in the relevant architecture specific LSB. _________________________________________________________ 1.6. Package Architecture Considerations Packages which do not contain any architecture specific files must specify an architecture of noarch. A LSB runtime environment must accept values noarch, or the value specified in the architecture specific supplement. Additional specifications or restrictions may be found in the architecture specific LSB specification.

GNU Free Documentation License Version 1.1, March 2000 Copyright (C) 2000 Free Software Foundation, Inc. 59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed. _________________________________________________________ A.1. PREAMBLE The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other written document "free" in the sense of freedom: to assure everyone the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it, with or without modifying it, either commercially or noncommercially. Secondarily, this License preserves for the author and publisher a way to get credit for their work, while not being considered responsible for modifications made by others. This License is a kind of "copyleft", which means that derivative works of the document must themselves be free in the same sense. It complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft license designed for free software. We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for free software, because free software needs free documentation: a free program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms that the software does. But this License is not limited to software manuals; it can be used for any textual work, regardless of subject matter or whether it is published as a printed book. We recommend this License principally for works whose purpose is instruction or reference. _________________________________________________________ A.2. APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS This License applies to any manual or other work that contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can be distributed under the terms of this License. The "Document", below, refers to any such manual or work. Any member of the public is a licensee, and is addressed as "you". A "Modified Version" of the Document means any work containing the Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with modifications and/or translated into another language. A "Secondary Section" is a named appendix or a front-matter section of the Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the publishers or authors of the Document to the Document's overall subject (or to related matters) and contains nothing that could fall directly within that overall subject. (For example, if the Document is in part a textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section may not explain any mathematics.) The relationship could be a matter of historical connection with the subject or with related matters, or of legal, commercial, philosophical, ethical or political position regarding them. The "Invariant Sections" are certain Secondary Sections whose titles are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in the notice that says that the Document is released under this License. The "Cover Texts" are certain short passages of text that are listed, as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice that says that the Document is released under this License. A "Transparent" copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy, represented in a format whose specification is available to the general public, whose contents can be viewed and edited directly and straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images composed of pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some widely available drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to text formatters or for automatic translation to a variety of formats suitable for input to text formatters. A copy made in an otherwise Transparent file format whose markup has been designed to thwart or discourage subsequent modification by readers is not Transparent. A copy that is not "Transparent" is called "Opaque". Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain ASCII without markup, Texinfo input format, LaTeX input format, SGML or XML using a publicly available DTD, and standard-conforming simple HTML designed for human modification. Opaque formats include PostScript, PDF, proprietary formats that can be read and edited only by proprietary word processors, SGML or XML for which the DTD and/or processing tools are not generally available, and the machine-generated HTML produced by some word processors for output purposes only. The "Title Page" means, for a printed book, the title page itself, plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the material this License requires to appear in the title page. For works in formats which do not have any title page as such, "Title Page" means the text near the most prominent appearance of the work's title, preceding the beginning of the body of the text. _________________________________________________________ A.3. VERBATIM COPYING You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License applies to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you add no other conditions whatsoever to those of this License. You may not use technical measures to obstruct or control the reading or further copying of the copies you make or distribute. However, you may accept compensation in exchange for copies. If you distribute a large enough number of copies you must also follow the conditions in section 3. You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above, and you may publicly display copies. _________________________________________________________ A.4. COPYING IN QUANTITY If you publish printed copies of the Document numbering more than 100, and the Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must enclose the copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all these Cover Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and Back-Cover Texts on the back cover. Both covers must also clearly and legibly identify you as the publisher of these copies. The front cover must present the full title with all words of the title equally prominent and visible. You may add other material on the covers in addition. Copying with changes limited to the covers, as long as they preserve the title of the Document and satisfy these conditions, can be treated as verbatim copying in other respects. If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto adjacent pages. If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document numbering more than 100, you must either include a machine-readable Transparent copy along with each Opaque copy, or state in or with each Opaque copy a publicly-accessible computer-network location containing a complete Transparent copy of the Document, free of added material, which the general network-using public has access to download anonymously at no charge using public-standard network protocols. If you use the latter option, you must take reasonably prudent steps, when you begin distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure that this Transparent copy will remain thus accessible at the stated location until at least one year after the last time you distribute an Opaque copy (directly or through your agents or retailers) of that edition to the public. It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of the Document well before redistributing any large number of copies, to give them a chance to provide you with an updated version of the Document. _________________________________________________________ A.5. MODIFICATIONS You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document under the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you release the Modified Version under precisely this License, with the Modified Version filling the role of the Document, thus licensing distribution and modification of the Modified Version to whoever possesses a copy of it. In addition, you must do these things in the Modified Version: A. Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title distinct from that of the Document, and from those of previous versions (which should, if there were any, be listed in the History section of the Document). You may use the same title as a previous version if the original publisher of that version gives permission. B. List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or entities responsible for authorship of the modifications in the Modified Version, together with at least five of the principal authors of the Document (all of its principal authors, if it has less than five). C. State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the Modified Version, as the publisher. D. Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document. E. Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications adjacent to the other copyright notices. F. Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license notice giving the public permission to use the Modified Version under the terms of this License, in the form shown in the Addendum below. G. Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant Sections and required Cover Texts given in the Document's license notice. H. Include an unaltered copy of this License. I. Preserve the section entitled "History", and its title, and add to it an item stating at least the title, year, new authors, and publisher of the Modified Version as given on the Title Page. If there is no section entitled "History" in the Document, create one stating the title, year, authors, and publisher of the Document as given on its Title Page, then add an item describing the Modified Version as stated in the previous sentence. J. Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document for public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and likewise the network locations given in the Document for previous versions it was based on. These may be placed in the "History" section. You may omit a network location for a work that was published at least four years before the Document itself, or if the original publisher of the version it refers to gives permission. K. In any section entitled "Acknowledgements" or "Dedications", preserve the section's title, and preserve in the section all the substance and tone of each of the contributor acknowledgements and/or dedications given therein. L. Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document, unaltered in their text and in their titles. Section numbers or the equivalent are not considered part of the section titles. M. Delete any section entitled "Endorsements". Such a section may not be included in the Modified Version. N. Do not retitle any existing section as "Endorsements" or to conflict in title with any Invariant Section. If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no material copied from the Document, you may at your option designate some or all of these sections as invariant. To do this, add their titles to the list of Invariant Sections in the Modified Version's license notice. These titles must be distinct from any other section titles. You may add a section entitled "Endorsements", provided it contains nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various parties--for example, statements of peer review or that the text has been approved by an organization as the authoritative definition of a standard. You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text, and a passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end of the list of Cover Texts in the Modified Version. Only one passage of Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be added by (or through arrangements made by) any one entity. If the Document already includes a cover text for the same cover, previously added by you or by arrangement made by the same entity you are acting on behalf of, you may not add another; but you may replace the old one, on explicit permission from the previous publisher that added the old one. The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this License give permission to use their names for publicity for or to assert or imply endorsement of any Modified Version. _________________________________________________________ A.6. COMBINING DOCUMENTS You may combine the Document with other documents released under this License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for modified versions, provided that you include in the combination all of the Invariant Sections of all of the original documents, unmodified, and list them all as Invariant Sections of your combined work in its license notice. The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single copy. If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name but different contents, make the title of each such section unique by adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the original author or publisher of that section if known, or else a unique number. Make the same adjustment to the section titles in the list of Invariant Sections in the license notice of the combined work. In the combination, you must combine any sections entitled "History" in the various original documents, forming one section entitled "History"; likewise combine any sections entitled "Acknowledgements", and any sections entitled "Dedications". You must delete all sections entitled "Endorsements." _________________________________________________________ A.7. COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other documents released under this License, and replace the individual copies of this License in the various documents with a single copy that is included in the collection, provided that you follow the rules of this License for verbatim copying of each of the documents in all other respects. You may extract a single document from such a collection, and distribute it individually under this License, provided you insert a copy of this License into the extracted document, and follow this License in all other respects regarding verbatim copying of that document. _________________________________________________________ A.8. AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other separate and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, does not as a whole count as a Modified Version of the Document, provided no compilation copyright is claimed for the compilation. Such a compilation is called an "aggregate", and this License does not apply to the other self-contained works thus compiled with the Document, on account of their being thus compiled, if they are not themselves derivative works of the Document. If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one quarter of the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be placed on covers that surround only the Document within the aggregate. Otherwise they must appear on covers around the whole aggregate. _________________________________________________________ A.9. TRANSLATION Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section 4. Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special permission from their copyright holders, but you may include translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the original versions of these Invariant Sections. You may include a translation of this License provided that you also include the original English version of this License. In case of a disagreement between the translation and the original English version of this License, the original English version will prevail. _________________________________________________________ A.10. TERMINATION You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document except as expressly provided for under this License. Any other attempt to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Document is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance. _________________________________________________________ A.11. FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions of the GNU Free Documentation License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. See http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/. Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version number. If the Document specifies that a particular numbered version of this License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that specified version or of any later version that has been published (not as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation. If the Document does not specify a version number of this License, you may choose any version ever published (not as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation. _________________________________________________________ A.12. How to use this License for your documents To use this License in a document you have written, include a copy of the License in the document and put the following copyright and license notices just after the title page: Copyright (c) YEAR YOUR NAME. Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.1 or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation; with the Invariant Sections being LIST THEIR TITLES, with the Front-Cover Texts being LIST, and with the Back-Cover Texts being LIST. A copy of the license is included in the section entitled "GNU Free Documentation License". If you have no Invariant Sections, write "with no Invariant Sections" instead of saying which ones are invariant. If you have no Front-Cover Texts, write "no Front-Cover Texts" instead of "Front-Cover Texts being LIST"; likewise for Back-Cover Texts. If your document contains nontrivial examples of program code, we recommend releasing these examples in parallel under your choice of free software license, such as the GNU General Public License, to permit their use in free software. Notes [1] Future versions of this specification might define additional service names. [2] Supplying an RPM format package is encouraged because it makes systems easier to manage. A future version of the LSB may require RPM, or specify a way for an installer to update a package database. Applications are also encouraged to uninstall cleanly. [3] The distribution itself may use a different packaging format for its own packages, and of course it may use any available mechanism for installing the LSB-conformant packages. [4] For example, there are discrepancies among distributions concerning whether the name might be frobnicator-1.7-21-ppc32.rpm or frobnicator-1.7-21-powerpc32.rpm. The architecture aside, recommended practice is for the filename of the package file to match the name within the package. [5] For example, if the name with the release and version is frobnicator-1.7-21, the name part is frobnicator and falls under the rules for a name with no hyphens. [6] For example, "frobnicator". [7] For example, ssh-common, ssh-client, kernel-pcmcia, and the like. Possible alternative names include sshcommon, foolinux-ssh-common (where foolinux is registered to the distribution), or lsb-foolinux-ssh-common. [8] For example, if an application vendor has domain name visicalc.example.com and has registered visicalc as a provider name, they might name packages visicalc-base, visicalc.example.com-charting, and the like.
