close - close a file descriptor
#include <unistd.h>
The close() function shall deallocate the file descriptor indicated by fildes. To deallocate means to make the file descriptor available for return by subsequent calls to open() or other functions that allocate file descriptors. All outstanding record locks owned by the process on the file associated with the file descriptor shall be removed (that is, unlocked).
If close() is interrupted by a signal that is to be caught, it shall return -1 with errno set to [EINTR] and the state of fildes is unspecified. If an I/O error occurred while reading from or writing to the file system during close(), it may return -1 with errno set to [EIO]; if this error is returned, the state of fildes is unspecified.
When all file descriptors associated with a pipe or FIFO special file are closed, any data remaining in the pipe or FIFO shall be discarded.
When all file descriptors associated with an open file description have been closed, the open file description shall be freed.
If the link count of the file is 0, when all file descriptors associated with the file are closed, the space occupied by the file shall be freed and the file shall no longer be accessible.
If a STREAMS-based fildes is closed and the calling process was previously registered to receive a SIGPOLL signal for events associated with that STREAM, the calling process shall be unregistered for events associated with the STREAM. The last close() for a STREAM shall cause the STREAM associated with fildes to be dismantled. If O_NONBLOCK is not set and there have been no signals posted for the STREAM, and if there is data on the module's write queue, close() shall wait for an unspecified time (for each module and driver) for any output to drain before dismantling the STREAM. The time delay can be changed via an I_SETCLTIME ioctl() request. If the O_NONBLOCK flag is set, or if there are any pending signals, close() shall not wait for output to drain, and shall dismantle the STREAM immediately.
If the implementation supports STREAMS-based pipes, and fildes is associated with one end of a pipe, the last close() shall cause a hangup to occur on the other end of the pipe. In addition, if the other end of the pipe has been named by fattach(), then the last close() shall force the named end to be detached by fdetach(). If the named end has no open file descriptors associated with it and gets detached, the STREAM associated with that end shall also be dismantled.
If fildes refers to the master side of a pseudo-terminal, and this is the last close, a SIGHUP signal shall be sent to the controlling process, if any, for which the slave side of the pseudo-terminal is the controlling terminal. It is unspecified whether closing the master side of the pseudo-terminal flushes all queued input and output.
If fildes refers to the slave side of a STREAMS-based pseudo-terminal, a zero-length message may be sent to the master. <img src="../images/opt-end.gif" alt="[Option End]" border="0">
When there is an outstanding cancelable asynchronous I/O operation against fildes when close() is called, that I/O operation may be canceled. An I/O operation that is not canceled completes as if the close() operation had not yet occurred. All operations that are not canceled shall complete as if the close() blocked until the operations completed. The close() operation itself need not block awaiting such I/O completion. Whether any I/O operation is canceled, and which I/O operation may be canceled upon close(), is implementation-defined.
If a shared memory object or a memory mapped file remains referenced at the last close (that is, a process has it mapped), then the entire contents of the memory object shall persist until the memory object becomes unreferenced. If this is the last close of a shared memory object or a memory mapped file and the close results in the memory object becoming unreferenced, and the memory object has been unlinked, then the memory object shall be removed.
If fildes refers to a socket, close() shall cause the socket to be destroyed. If the socket is in connection-mode, and the SO_LINGER option is set for the socket with non-zero linger time, and the socket has untransmitted data, then close() shall block for up to the current linger interval until all data is transmitted.
Upon successful completion, 0 shall be returned; otherwise, -1 shall be returned and errno set to indicate the error.
The close() function shall fail if:
The close() function may fail if:
The following sections are informative.
The following example closes the file descriptor associated with standard output for the current process, re-assigns standard output to a new file descriptor, and closes the original file descriptor to clean up. This example assumes that the file descriptor 0 (which is the descriptor for standard input) is not closed.
#include <unistd.h> ... int pfd; ... close(1); dup(pfd); close(pfd); ...
Incidentally, this is exactly what could be achieved using:
dup2(pfd, 1); close(pfd);
In the following example, close() is used to close a file descriptor after an unsuccessful attempt is made to associate that file descriptor with a stream.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#define LOCKFILE "/etc/ptmp"
...
int pfd;
FILE *fpfd;
...
if ((fpfd = fdopen (pfd, "w")) == NULL) {
close(pfd);
unlink(LOCKFILE);
exit(1);
}
...
An application that had used the stdio routine fopen() to open a file should use the corresponding fclose() routine rather than close(). Once a file is closed, the file descriptor no longer exists, since the integer corresponding to it no longer refers to a file.
The use of interruptible device close routines should be discouraged to avoid problems with the implicit closes of file descriptors by exec and exit(). This volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 only intends to permit such behavior by specifying the [EINTR] error condition.
