Function Documentation

void explain_fchdir_or_die

(

int

fildes

)

The explain_fchdir_or_die function is used to call the fchdir(2) system call. On failure an explanation will be printed to stderr, obtained from the explain_fchdir(3) function, and then the process terminates by calling exit(EXIT_FAILURE).

This function is intended to be used in a fashion similar to the following example:

 explain_fchdir_or_die(fildes);

Parameters:

fildes

The fildes, exactly as to be passed to the fchdir(2) system call.

Returns:

This function only returns on success. On failure, prints an explanation and exits, it does not return.
