дублировать дескриптор открытого файла (duplicate an open file descriptor)

Пролог (Prolog)

This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The
       Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult the
       corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior),
       or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.

Имя (Name)

dup, dup2 — duplicate an open file descriptor

Синопсис (Synopsis)

#include <unistd.h>

int dup(int fildes); int dup2(int fildes, int fildes2);


Описание (Description)

The dup() function provides an alternative interface to the
       service provided by fcntl() using the F_DUPFD command. The call
       dup(fildes) shall be equivalent to:

fcntl(fildes, F_DUPFD, 0);

The dup2() function shall cause the file descriptor fildes2 to refer to the same open file description as the file descriptor fildes and to share any locks, and shall return fildes2. If fildes2 is already a valid open file descriptor, it shall be closed first, unless fildes is equal to fildes2 in which case dup2() shall return fildes2 without closing it. If the close operation fails to close fildes2, dup2() shall return -1 without changing the open file description to which fildes2 refers. If fildes is not a valid file descriptor, dup2() shall return -1 and shall not close fildes2. If fildes2 is less than 0 or greater than or equal to {OPEN_MAX}, dup2() shall return -1 with errno set to [EBADF].

Upon successful completion, if fildes is not equal to fildes2, the FD_CLOEXEC flag associated with fildes2 shall be cleared. If fildes is equal to fildes2, the FD_CLOEXEC flag associated with fildes2 shall not be changed.

If fildes refers to a typed memory object, the result of the dup2() function is unspecified.


Возвращаемое значение (Return value)

Upon successful completion a non-negative integer, namely the
       file descriptor, shall be returned; otherwise, -1 shall be
       returned and errno set to indicate the error.

Ошибки (Error)

The dup() function shall fail if:

EBADF The fildes argument is not a valid open file descriptor.

EMFILE All file descriptors available to the process are currently open.

The dup2() function shall fail if:

EBADF The fildes argument is not a valid open file descriptor or the argument fildes2 is negative or greater than or equal to {OPEN_MAX}.

EINTR The dup2() function was interrupted by a signal.

The dup2() function may fail if:

EIO An I/O error occurred while attempting to close fildes2.

The following sections are informative.


Примеры (Examples)

Redirecting Standard Output to a File S
       The following example closes standard output for the current
       processes, re-assigns standard output to go to the file
       referenced by pfd, and closes the original file descriptor to
       clean up.

#include <unistd.h> ... int pfd; ... close(1); dup(pfd); close(pfd); ...

Redirecting Error Messages The following example redirects messages from stderr to stdout.

#include <unistd.h> ... dup2(1, 2); ...


Использование в приложениях (Application usage)

Implementations may use file descriptors that must be inherited
       into child processes for the child process to remain conforming,
       such as for message catalog or tracing purposes. Therefore, an
       application that calls dup2() with an arbitrary integer for
       fildes2 risks non-conforming behavior, and dup2() can only
       portably be used to overwrite file descriptor values that the
       application has obtained through explicit actions, or for the
       three file descriptors corresponding to the standard file
       streams. In order to avoid a race condition of leaking an
       unintended file descriptor into a child process, an application
       should consider opening all file descriptors with the FD_CLOEXEC
       bit set unless the file descriptor is intended to be inherited
       across exec.

Обоснование (Rationale)

The dup() function is redundant. Its services are also provided
       by the fcntl() function. It has been included in this volume of
       POSIX.1‐2017 primarily for historical reasons, since many
       existing applications use it. On the other hand, the dup2()
       function provides unique services, as no other interface is able
       to atomically replace an existing file descriptor.

The dup2() function is not marked obsolescent because it presents a type-safe version of functionality provided in a type-unsafe version by fcntl(). It is used in the POSIX Ada binding.

The dup2() function is not intended for use in critical regions as a synchronization mechanism.

In the description of [EBADF], the case of fildes being out of range is covered by the given case of fildes not being valid. The descriptions for fildes and fildes2 are different because the only kind of invalidity that is relevant for fildes2 is whether it is out of range; that is, it does not matter whether fildes2 refers to an open file when the dup2() call is made.
