* Fix several problems with mkdir:mpp1997-04-011-29/+38
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1) Fix mkdir -p to exit with the proper exit status and issue an error message if it was unable to create all of the specified directories and they did not previously exist. POSIX says: The mkdir utility shall exit with one of the following values: 0 All the specified directories were created successfully or the -p option was specified and all the specified directories now exist. E.g. % mkdir -p /var/mkdir mkdir: /var/mkdir: Permission denied % touch /tmp/file % mkdir -p /tmp/file/dir mkdir: /tmp/file: Not a directory Previously the above examples would exit with a zero exit status and no error message. Something like the following run as a normal user will still not produce an error: % id uid=629(mpp) gid=629(mpp).... % mkdir -p /usr/local/etc % ls -ld /usr/local/etc drwxr-xr-x 4 bin bin 512 Dec 26 14:55 /usr/local/etc/ 2) Cleaned up the mode handling to be more efficient when multiple directories are being created. 3) Fixed a problem where directories could be created with the wrong mode if the the -p option was specified and the build() routine returned and error. It would leave the umask set incorrectly at this point. 4) Removed an unused variable. Closes PR# 2304.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | POSIX.2 looks pretty unequivocal to me, and it agrees with you. Under the explanation of the "-p" option, it says, "Each dir operand that names an existing directory shall be ignored without error." Under the explanation of exit status zero, it says, "All the specified directories were created successfully, or the-p option was specified and all the specified directories now exist." Seems to me POSIX requires exactly the behavior you want. [ And I've made the change, which is also now compatible with 1.x - jkh ] Reviewed by: jkh Submitted by: jkh/tweten
