-.Dt REALPATH 3
-.Os
-.Sh NAME
-.Nm realpath
-.Nd returns the canonicalized absolute pathname
-.Sh LIBRARY
-.Lb libc
-.Sh SYNOPSIS
-.In sys/param.h
-.In stdlib.h
-.Ft "char *"
-.Fn realpath "const char *pathname" "char *resolved_path"
-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-The
-.Fn realpath
-function resolves all symbolic links, extra
-.Dq /
-characters and references to
-.Pa /./
-and
-.Pa /../
-in
-.Fa pathname ,
-and copies the resulting absolute pathname into
-the memory pointed to by
-.Fa resolved_path .
-The
-.Fa resolved_path
-argument
-.Em must
-point to a buffer capable of storing at least
-.Dv PATH_MAX
-characters, or be
-.Dv NULL .
-.Pp
-The
-.Fn realpath
-function will resolve both absolute and relative paths
-and return the absolute pathname corresponding to
-.Fa pathname .
-All but the last component of
-.Fa pathname
-must exist when
-.Fn realpath
-is called.
-.Sh "RETURN VALUES"
-The
-.Fn realpath
-function returns
-.Fa resolved_path
-on success.
-If the function was supplied
-.Dv NULL
-as
-.Fa resolved_path ,
-and operation did not cause errors, the returned value is
-a null-terminated string in a buffer allocated by a call to
-.Fn malloc 3 .
-If an error occurs,
-.Fn realpath
-returns
-.Dv NULL ,
-and if
-.Fa resolved_path
-is not
-.Dv NULL ,
-the array that it points to contains the pathname which caused the problem.
-.Sh ERRORS
-The function
-.Fn realpath
-may fail and set the external variable
-.Va errno
-for any of the errors specified for the library functions
-.Xr lstat 2 ,
-.Xr readlink 2
-and
-.Xr getcwd 3 .
-.Sh SEE ALSO
-.Xr getcwd 3
-.\" .Sh STANDARDS
-.\" The
-.\" .Fn realpath
-.\" function conforms to
-.\" .St -p1003.1-2001 .
-.Sh HISTORY
-The
-.Fn realpath
-function first appeared in
-.Bx 4.4 .
-.Sh CAVEATS
-This implementation of
-.Fn realpath
-differs slightly from the Solaris implementation.
-The
-.Bx 4.4
-version always returns absolute pathnames,
-whereas the Solaris implementation will,
-under certain circumstances, return a relative
-.Fa resolved_path
-when given a relative
-.Fa pathname .
