Subject: Re: Any way to allow clobbering empty files when noclobber is set?
Date: Thu, 4 Jun 2020 07:41:52 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAN=4vMqBCZqD04QO-hw0DwipmCVkdq+QNOEGNaSEfNxyRBqiiw@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <CAH+w=7YpQ3CcsMhAvztGHx19FnALBV349RAz4p8iuB+_8AnsxQ@mail.gmail.com>

The regular noclobber can use O_CREAT | O_EXCL to avoid races. How
would any of the proposed modifications work? That is, how to
implement unlink-if-empty without ever unlinking non-empty files? Or
how to implement clobber-if-empty without ever clobbering non-empty
files?

Roman.
