STANDARDS CONFORMANCE
The POSIX standards leave some features to the implementing vendor to define. The following
features are affected in the HP implementation:
• The calling process is not required to have write or search permission for a directory in
order to rename the directory.
• The errno value [EBUSY] is returned when either directory is in use by another process.
• The errno value [EMLINK] is not returned, because links to directories are not allowed.
The following are HP extensions to the XPG4 Version 2 specification:
• The errno values [EFAULT], [EFSBAD], [EGUARDIANOPEN], [ENOMEM],
[ENOROOT], [ENXIO], [EOSSNOTRUNNING], [EPERM], and [EXDEV] can be
returned.
The rename_oss() function is a HP extension to the XPG4 Version 2 specification.
