POSIX_S...ADDOPEN(3POSIX)

💖 POSIX_S...ADDOPEN(3POSIX) 💖

okay bestie, we're in the POSIX Programmer's Manual section of the man pages, and this little cutie is posix_spawn_file_actions_addopen(3POSIX). yes the title is doing the most with those ellipses, that's just how POSIX rolls. let's get into it 🫶

🌸 PROLOG 🌸

so real talk first: this manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual. the Linux implementation of this interface may differ — like, consult the corresponding Linux manual page for the details of Linux behavior, okay? — or honestly the interface may not be implemented on Linux at all. vibe check: don't assume, go check. 💅

✨ NAME ✨

posix_spawn_file_actions_addopen — add open action to spawn file actions object (ADVANCED REALTIME)

like the name literally tells you what it does, no cap. it adds an open action to a spawn file actions object. and it's tagged ADVANCED REALTIME, so you know it's fancy. 👑

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <spawn.h>

int posix_spawn_file_actions_addopen(posix_spawn_file_actions_t
    *restrict file_actions, int fildes,
    const char *restrict path, int oflag, mode_t mode);

there she is. five arguments, two restrict qualifiers, one #include <spawn.h>. iconic behavior. 💖

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

okay so for the actual description… it says:

Refer to posix_spawn_file_actions_addclose().

that's it. that's the whole thing. the POSIX girlies said "go read the other page, it's all there" 😭 so if you want the full tea, that's where it's at. not me being a whole cross-reference, but here we are. 🧚
