Function Documentation

abort_writing_to_file()

int abort_writing_to_file

(

open_file_t *

file_data

)

Finish writing to file_data: close the file handle, free memory as needed, and if using a temporary file, delete it.

Definition at line 473 of file files.c.

append_bytes_to_file()

int append_bytes_to_file	(	const char *	fname,
		const char *	str,
		size_t	len,
		int	bin
	)

As write_bytes_to_file, but if the file already exists, append the bytes to the end of the file instead of overwriting it.

Definition at line 554 of file files.c.

compat_getdelim_()

ssize_t compat_getdelim_	(	char **	lineptr,
		size_t *	n,
		int	delim,
		FILE *	stream
	)

Internal back-end function to implement getdelim(): only exists when Tor is built for unit tests, or when Tor is built on an operating system without its own getdelim().

Definition at line 38 of file getdelim.c.

fdopen_file()

FILE* fdopen_file

(

open_file_t *

file_data

)

Given file_data from start_writing_to_file(), return a stdio FILE* that can be used to write to the same file. The caller should not mix stdio calls with non-stdio calls.

Definition at line 381 of file files.c.

Referenced by start_writing_to_stdio_file().

file_status()

file_status_t file_status

(

const char *

fname

)

Return: FN_ERROR if filename can't be read, is NULL, or is zero-length, FN_NOENT if it doesn't exist, FN_FILE if it is a non-empty regular file, or a FIFO on unix-like systems, FN_EMPTY for zero-byte regular files, FN_DIR if it's a directory, and FN_ERROR for any other file type. On FN_ERROR and FN_NOENT, sets errno. (errno is not set when FN_ERROR is returned due to an unhandled file type.)

finish_writing_to_file()

int finish_writing_to_file

(

open_file_t *

file_data

)

Finish writing to file_data: close the file handle, free memory as needed, and if using a temporary file, replace the original file with the temporary file.

Definition at line 465 of file files.c.

is_dir()

bool is_dir

(

file_status_t

file_type

)

Returns true if file_type represents an existing directory. Returns false otherwise.

Definition at line 261 of file files.c.

is_file()

bool is_file

(

file_status_t

file_type

)

Returns true if file_type represents an existing file (even if empty). Returns false otherwise.

Definition at line 253 of file files.c.

read_all_from_fd()

ssize_t read_all_from_fd	(	int	fd,
		char *	buf,
		size_t	count
	)

Read from fd to buf, until we get count bytes or reach the end of the file. Return the number of bytes read, or -1 on error. Only use if fd is a blocking fd.

Definition at line 181 of file files.c.

read_file_to_str_until_eof()

char* read_file_to_str_until_eof	(	int	fd,
		size_t	max_bytes_to_read,
		size_t *	sz_out
	)

Read the contents of the open file fd presuming it is a FIFO (or similar) file descriptor for which the size of the file isn't known ahead of time. Return NULL on failure, and a NUL-terminated string on success. On success, set sz_out to the number of bytes read.

replace_file()

int replace_file	(	const char *	from,
		const char *	to
	)

Rename the file from to the file to. On Unix, this is the same as rename(2). On windows, this removes to first if it already exists. Returns 0 on success. Returns -1 and sets errno on failure.

Definition at line 117 of file files.c.

start_writing_to_file()

int start_writing_to_file	(	const char *	fname,
		int	open_flags,
		int	mode,
		open_file_t **	data_out
	)

Try to start writing to the file in fname, passing the flags open_flags to the open() syscall, creating the file (if needed) with access value mode. If the O_APPEND flag is set, we append to the original file. Otherwise, we open a new temporary file in the same directory, and either replace the original or remove the temporary file when we're done.

Return the fd for the newly opened file, and store working data in *data_out. The caller should not close the fd manually: instead, call finish_writing_to_file() or abort_writing_to_file(). Returns -1 on failure.

NOTE: When not appending, the flags O_CREAT and O_TRUNC are treated as true and the flag O_EXCL is treated as false.

NOTE: Ordinarily, O_APPEND means "seek to the end of the file before each write()". We don't do that.

start_writing_to_stdio_file()

FILE* start_writing_to_stdio_file	(	const char *	fname,
		int	open_flags,
		int	mode,
		open_file_t **	data_out
	)

Combines start_writing_to_file with fdopen_file(): arguments are as for start_writing_to_file, but

tor_fopen_cloexec()

FILE* tor_fopen_cloexec	(	const char *	path,
		const char *	mode
	)

As fopen(path,mode), but ensures that the O_CLOEXEC bit is set on the underlying file handle.

tor_get_avail_disk_space()

int64_t tor_get_avail_disk_space

(

const char *

path

Return the amount of free disk space we have permission to use, in bytes. Return -1 if the amount of free space can't be determined.

Definition at line 28 of file freespace.c.

tor_open_cloexec()

int tor_open_cloexec	(	const char *	path,
		int	flags,
		unsigned	mode

tor_unlink()

int tor_unlink

(

const char *

pathname

Wrapper for unlink() to make it mockable for the test suite; returns 0 if unlinking the file succeeded, -1 and sets errno if unlinking fails.

touch_file()

int touch_file

(

const char *

fname

write_all_to_fd()

ssize_t write_all_to_fd	(	int	fd,
		const char *	buf,
		size_t	count
	)

Write count bytes from buf to fd. Return the number of bytes written, or -1 on error. Only use if fd is a blocking fd.

write_bytes_to_file()

int write_bytes_to_file	(	const char *	fname,
		const char *	str,
		size_t	len,
		int	bin
	)

As write_str_to_file, but does not assume a NUL-terminated string. Instead, we write len bytes, starting at str.

Referenced by crypto_pk_write_private_key_to_filename().

write_bytes_to_new_file()

int write_bytes_to_new_file	(	const char *	fname,

		int	bin
	)

Like write_str_to_file(), but also return -1 if there was a file already residing in fname.

Definition at line 564 of file files.c.

write_str_to_file()

int write_str_to_file	(	const char *	fname,
		const char *	str,
		int	bin
	)

Create a file named fname with the contents str. Overwrite the previous fname if possible. Return 0 on success, -1 on failure.

This function replaces the old file atomically, if possible. This function, and all other functions in util.c that create files, create them with mode 0600.

write_str_to_file_if_not_equal()

int write_str_to_file_if_not_equal	(	const char *	fname,
		const char *	str
	)

Attempt to read a file fname. If the file's contents is equal to the string str, return 0. Otherwise, attempt to overwrite the file with the contents of str and return the value of write_str_to_file().
