NAME

       io_uring_prep_mkdirat - prepare an mkdirat request

SYNOPSIS

       #include <fcntl.h>
       #include <sys/stat.h>
       #include <liburing.h>

       void io_uring_prep_mkdirat(struct io_uring_sqe *sqe,
                                  int dirfd,
                                  const char *path,
                                  mode_t mode);

       void io_uring_prep_mkdir(struct io_uring_sqe *sqe,
                                const char *path,
                                mode_t mode);

DESCRIPTION

       The io_uring_prep_mkdirat(3) function prepares a mkdirat request. The submission queue entry sqe is setup
       to  use  the  directory  file  descriptor  pointed  to  by dirfd to start a mkdirat operation on the path
       identified by path with the mode given in mode.

       The io_uring_prep_mkdir(3) function prepares a mkdir request. The submission queue entry sqe is setup  to
       use the current working directory to start a mkdir operation on the path identified by path with the mode
       given in mode.

       These functions prepare an async mkdir(2) or mkdirat(2) request. See those man pages for details.

RETURN VALUE

       None

ERRORS

       The  CQE  res  field  will  contain  the result of the operation. See the related man page for details on
       possible values. Note that where synchronous system calls will return -1 on failure and set errno to  the
       actual  error value, io_uring never uses errno.  Instead it returns the negated errno directly in the CQE
       res field.

NOTES

       As with any request that passes in data in a struct, that data must remain valid until  the  request  has
       been  successfully  submitted.  It  need  not  remain  valid  until  completion.  Once a request has been
       submitted, the in-kernel state is stable. Very early kernels (5.4  and  earlier)  required  state  to  be
       stable  until  the  completion  occurred.  Applications  can  test  for  this  behavior by inspecting the
       IORING_FEAT_SUBMIT_STABLE flag passed back from io_uring_queue_init_params(3).
