| Summary | 0001843: description of O_EXEC+O_SEARCH not updated after defect 658 | ||||
| Description | Defect 658 specified the legal behaviors of open(O_EXEC) on directory and open(O_SEARCH) on a non-directory, but the fcntl.h description wasn't updated to match. O_EXEC Open for execute only (non-directory files). The result is unspecified if this flag is applied to a directory. ... O_SEARCH Open directory for search only. The result is unspecified if this flag is applied to a non-directory file. The second sentence of each description is no longer true: the permitted behaviors are specified. | ||||
| Desired Action | Since the permitted behaviors of open/openat are specified in their specific pages, I think we should just delete the second sentence ("The result is unspecified...") from each item. | ||||

The Description text contained a copy of the Desired Action in the middle of quoted text from the standard. I have removed it. |
