* MFC 359465: Document EINTEGRITY errors for many system calls.John Baldwin2020-09-081-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | EINTEGRITY was previously documented as a UFS-specific error for mount(2). This documents EINTEGRITY as a filesystem-independent error that may be reported by the backing store of a filesystem. While here, document EIO as a filesystem-independent error for both mount(2) and posix_fadvise(2). EIO was previously only documented for UFS for mount(2).

* MFC r345087: Use consistent struct stat arg name in stat man pageEd Maste2019-03-201-1/+1
| | | | | | | | stat, lstat, and fstat use `*sb` as the stat struct pointer arg name, while fstatat previously used `*buf`. Notes: svn path=/stable/12/; revision=345314
* MFC r341598:Alan Somers2019-02-141-25/+33
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | stat(2): clarify which syscalls modify file timestamps The list of syscalls that modify st_atim, st_mtim, and st_ctim was quite out of date and probably not accurate to begin with. Update it, and make it clear that the list is open-ended. Reviewed by: kib Differential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D18410 Notes: svn path=/stable/12/; revision=344134

* Renumber copyright clause 4Warner Losh2017-02-281-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point.

* Remove invalid remark about pipes.Ed Schouten2012-06-021-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | The stat structures returned on pipes seems to contain all the information required by POSIX. Especially the wording "and thus to a pipe" makes little sense, because it seems to imply a certain relationship between sockets and pipes that simply isn't there.

* Rename st_*timespec fields to st_*tim for POSIX 2008 compliance.Ed Schouten2010-03-281-11/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A nice thing about POSIX 2008 is that it finally standardizes a way to obtain file access/modification/change times in sub-second precision, namely using struct timespec, which we already have for a very long time. Unfortunately POSIX uses different names. This commit adds compatibility macros, so existing code should still build properly. Also change all source code in the kernel to work without any of the compatibility macros. This makes it all a less ambiguous. I am also renaming st_birthtime to st_birthtim, even though it was a local extension anyway. It seems Cygwin also has a st_birthtim. Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=205792

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Unlike other filesystem objects, symbolic links do not have an owner, group, access mode, times, etc. Instead, these attributes are taken from the directory that contains the link. The only attributes returned from an lstat() that refer to the symbolic link itself are the file type (S_IFLNK), size, blocks, and link count (always 1). This is bogus, and disagrees with the implementation and symlink(7). Removed it. PR: docs/10269 Submitted by: Tolik <tolik@sibptus.tomsk.ru> Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=45560
