|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The file whose name
|
|
is given by
|
|
.Fa path
|
|
or referenced by the descriptor
|
|
.Fa fd
|
|
has its flags changed to
|
|
.Fa flags .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn lchflags
|
|
system call is like
|
|
.Fn chflags
|
|
except in the case where the named file is a symbolic link,
|
|
in which case
|
|
.Fn lchflags
|
|
will change the flags of the link itself,
|
|
rather than the file it points to.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn chflagsat
|
|
is equivalent to either
|
|
.Fn chflags
|
|
or
|
|
.Fn lchflags
|
|
depending on the
|
|
.Fa atflag
|
|
except in the case where
|
|
.Fa path
|
|
specifies a relative path.
|
|
In this case the file to be changed is determined relative to the directory
|
|
associated with the file descriptor
|
|
.Fa fd
|
|
instead of the current working directory.
|
|
The values for the
|
|
.Fa atflag
|
|
are constructed by a bitwise-inclusive OR of flags from the following list,
|
|
defined in
|
|
.In fcntl.h :
|
|
.Bl -tag -width indent
|
|
.It Dv AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa path
|
|
names a symbolic link, then the flags of the symbolic link are changed.
|
|
.It Dv AT_RESOLVE_BENEATH
|
|
Only walk paths below the directory specified by the
|
|
.Ar fd
|
|
descriptor.
|
|
See the description of the
|
|
.Dv O_RESOLVE_BENEATH
|
|
flag in the
|
|
.Xr open 2
|
|
manual page.
|
|
.It Dv AT_EMPTY_PATH
|
|
If the
|
|
.Fa path
|
|
argument is an empty string, operate on the file or directory
|
|
referenced by the descriptor
|
|
.Fa fd .
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa fd
|
|
is equal to
|
|
.Dv AT_FDCWD ,
|
|
operate on the current working directory.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If
|
|
.Fn chflagsat
|
|
is passed the special value
|
|
.Dv AT_FDCWD
|
|
in the
|
|
.Fa fd
|
|
parameter, the current working directory is used.
|
|
If also
|
|
.Fa atflag
|
|
is zero, the behavior is identical to a call to
|
|
.Fn chflags .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The flags specified are formed by
|
|
.Em or Ns 'ing
|
|
the following values
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width ".Dv SF_IMMUTABLE" -compact -offset indent
|
|
.It Dv SF_APPEND
|
|
The file may only be appended to.
|
|
.It Dv SF_ARCHIVED
|
|
The file has been archived.
|
|
This flag means the opposite of the DOS, Windows and CIFS
|
|
FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ARCHIVE attribute.
|
|
This flag has been deprecated, and may be removed in a future release.
|
|
.It Dv SF_IMMUTABLE
|
|
The file may not be changed.
|
|
.It Dv SF_NOUNLINK
|
|
The file may not be renamed or deleted.
|
|
.It Dv SF_SNAPSHOT
|
|
The file is a snapshot file.
|
|
.It Dv UF_APPEND
|
|
The file may only be appended to.
|
|
.It Dv UF_ARCHIVE
|
|
The file needs to be archived.
|
|
This flag has the same meaning as the DOS, Windows and CIFS
|
|
FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ARCHIVE attribute.
|
|
Filesystems in FreeBSD may or may not have special handling for this flag.
|
|
For instance, ZFS tracks changes to files and will set this bit when a
|
|
file is updated.
|
|
UFS only stores the flag, and relies on the application to change it when
|
|
needed.
|
|
.It Dv UF_HIDDEN
|
|
The file may be hidden from directory listings at the application's
|
|
discretion.
|
|
The file has the DOS, Windows and CIFS FILE_ATTRIBUTE_HIDDEN attribute.
|
|
.It Dv UF_IMMUTABLE
|
|
The file may not be changed.
|
|
.It Dv UF_NODUMP
|
|
Do not dump the file.
|
|
.It Dv UF_NOUNLINK
|
|
The file may not be renamed or deleted.
|
|
.It Dv UF_OFFLINE
|
|
The file is offline, or has the Windows and CIFS FILE_ATTRIBUTE_OFFLINE
|
|
attribute.
|
|
Filesystems in FreeBSD store and display this flag, but do not provide any
|
|
special handling when it is set.
|
|
.It Dv UF_OPAQUE
|
|
The directory is opaque when viewed through a union stack.
|
|
.It Dv UF_READONLY
|
|
The file is read only, and may not be written or appended.
|
|
Filesystems may use this flag to maintain compatibility with the DOS, Windows
|
|
and CIFS FILE_ATTRIBUTE_READONLY attribute.
|
|
.It Dv UF_REPARSE
|
|
The file contains a Windows reparse point and has the Windows and CIFS
|
|
FILE_ATTRIBUTE_REPARSE_POINT attribute.
|
|
.It Dv UF_SPARSE
|
|
The file has the Windows FILE_ATTRIBUTE_SPARSE_FILE attribute.
|
|
This may also be used by a filesystem to indicate a sparse file.
|
|
.It Dv UF_SYSTEM
|
|
The file has the DOS, Windows and CIFS FILE_ATTRIBUTE_SYSTEM attribute.
|
|
Filesystems in FreeBSD may store and display this flag, but do not provide
|
|
any special handling when it is set.

|
|
If one of
|
|
.Dv SF_IMMUTABLE , SF_APPEND ,
|
|
or
|
|
.Dv SF_NOUNLINK
|
|
is set a non-super-user cannot change any flags and even the super-user
|
|
can change flags only if securelevel is 0.
|
|
(See
|
|
.Xr init 8
|
|
for details.)

|
|
The
|
|
.Dv UF_IMMUTABLE , UF_APPEND , UF_NOUNLINK , UF_NODUMP ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Dv UF_OPAQUE
|
|
flags may be set or unset by either the owner of a file or the super-user.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Dv SF_IMMUTABLE , SF_APPEND , SF_NOUNLINK ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Dv SF_ARCHIVED
|
|
flags may only be set or unset by the super-user.
|
|
Attempts to toggle these flags by non-super-users are rejected.
|
|
These flags may be set at any time, but normally may only be unset when
|
|
the system is in single-user mode.
|
|
(See
|
|
.Xr init 8
|
|
for details.)
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The implementation of all flags is filesystem-dependent.
|
|
See the description of the
|
|
.Dv UF_ARCHIVE
|
|
flag above for one example of the differences in behavior.
|
|
Care should be exercised when writing applications to account for
|
|
support or lack of support of these flags in various filesystems.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Dv SF_SNAPSHOT
|
|
flag is maintained by the system and cannot be toggled.
