rmdir − delete a directory
#include <unistd.h>
int rmdir(const char *pathname);
rmdir() deletes a directory, which must be empty.
On success, zero is returned. On error, −1 is returned, and errno is set appropriately.
|
EACCES |
Write access to the directory containing pathname was not allowed, or one of the directories in the path prefix of pathname did not allow search permission. (See also path_resolution(7). | ||
|
EBUSY |
pathname is currently in use by the system or some process that prevents its removal. On Linux this means pathname is currently used as a mount point or is the root directory of the calling process. | ||
|
EFAULT |
pathname points outside your accessible address space. | ||
|
EINVAL |
pathname has . as last component. | ||
|
ELOOP |
Too many symbolic links were encountered in resolving pathname. |
ENAMETOOLONG
pathname was too long.
|
ENOENT |
A directory component in pathname does not exist or is a dangling symbolic link. | ||
|
ENOMEM |
Insufficient kernel memory was available. |
ENOTDIR
pathname, or a component used as a directory in pathname, is not, in fact, a directory.
ENOTEMPTY
pathname contains entries other than . and .. ; or, pathname has .. as its final component. POSIX.1-2001 also allows EEXIST for this condition.
|
EPERM |
The directory containing pathname has the sticky bit (S_ISVTX) set and the process’s effective user ID is neither the user ID of the file to be deleted nor that of the directory containing it, and the process is not privileged (Linux: does not have the CAP_FOWNER capability). | ||
|
EPERM |
The file system containing pathname does not support the removal of directories. | ||
|
EROFS |
pathname refers to a directory on a read-only file system. |
SVr4, 4.3BSD, POSIX.1-2001.
