    NAME

    posix_openpt - open a pseudo-terminal device
     
    

    SYNOPSIS

    #include <stdlib.h>
    #include <fcntl.h>

    int posix_openpt(int oflag);
     

    DESCRIPTION

    The posix_openpt() function shall establish a connection between a master device for a pseudo-terminal and a file descriptor. The file descriptor is used by other I/O functions that refer to that pseudo-terminal.

    The file status flags and file access modes of the open file description shall be set according to the value of oflag.

    Values for oflag are constructed by a bitwise-inclusive OR of flags from the following list, defined in <fcntl.h>:

    O_RDWR
    Open for reading and writing.
    O_NOCTTY
    If set posix_openpt() shall not cause the terminal device to become the controlling terminal for the process.

    The behavior of other values for the oflag argument is unspecified.  

    RETURN VALUE

    Upon successful completion, the posix_openpt() function shall open a master pseudo-terminal device and return a non-negative integer representing the lowest numbered unused file descriptor. Otherwise, -1 shall be returned and errno set to indicate the error.  

    ERRORS

    The posix_openpt() function shall fail if:

    EMFILE
    {OPEN_MAX} file descriptors are currently open in the calling process.
    ENFILE
    The maximum allowable number of files is currently open in the system.

    The posix_openpt() function may fail if:

    EINVAL
    The value of oflag is not valid.
    EAGAIN
    Out of pseudo-terminal resources.
    ENOSR
    Out of STREAMS resources.

    The following sections are informative.  

    EXAMPLES

     

    Opening a Pseudo-Terminal and Returning the Name of the Slave

    Device and a File Descriptor

    
    #include <fcntl.h>
    #include <stdio.h>
    
    
    int masterfd, slavefd;
    char *slavedevice;
    
    
    masterfd = posix_openpt(O_RDWR|O_NOCTTY);
    
    
    if (masterfd == -1
        || grantpt (masterfd) == -1
        || unlockpt (masterfd) == -1
        || (slavedevice = ptsname (masterfd)) == NULL)
        return -1;
    
    
    printf("slave device is: %s\n", slavedevice);
    
    
    slavefd = open(slave, O_RDWR|O_NOCTTY);
    if (slavefd < 0)
        return -1;
    
    
     

    APPLICATION USAGE

    This function is a method for portably obtaining a file descriptor of a master terminal device for a pseudo-terminal. The grantpt() and ptsname() functions can be used to manipulate mode and ownership permissions, and to obtain the name of the slave device, respectively.  

    RATIONALE

    The standard developers considered the matter of adding a special device for cloning master pseudo-terminals: the /dev/ptmx device. However, consensus could not be reached, and it was felt that adding a new function would permit other implementations. The posix_openpt() function is designed to complement the grantpt(), ptsname(), and unlockpt() functions.

    On implementations supporting the /dev/ptmx clone device, opening the master device of a pseudo-terminal is simply:

    
    mfdp = open("/dev/ptmx", oflag );
    if (mfdp < 0)
        return -1;
    
    
     

    FUTURE DIRECTIONS

    None.
