POSIX(3pm)                            Perl Programmers Reference Guide                            POSIX(3pm)



NAME
       POSIX - Perl interface to IEEE Std 1003.1

SYNOPSIS
           use POSIX ();
           use POSIX qw(setsid);
           use POSIX qw(:errno_h :fcntl_h);

           printf "EINTR is %d\n", EINTR;

           $sess_id = POSIX::setsid();

           $fd = POSIX::open($path, O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_WRONLY, 0644);
               # note: that's a filedescriptor, *NOT* a filehandle

DESCRIPTION
       The POSIX module permits you to access all (or nearly all) the standard POSIX 1003.1 identifiers.
       Many of these identifiers have been given Perl-ish interfaces.

       Everything is exported by default with the exception of any POSIX functions with the same name as a
       built-in Perl function, such as "abs", "alarm", "rmdir", "write", etc.., which will be exported only
       if you ask for them explicitly.  This is an unfortunate backwards compatibility feature.  You can
       stop the exporting by saying "use POSIX ()" and then use the fully qualified names (ie.
       "POSIX::SEEK_END"), or by giving an explicit import list.  If you do neither, and opt for the
       default, "use POSIX;" has to import 553 symbols.

       This document gives a condensed list of the features available in the POSIX module.  Consult your
       operating system's manpages for general information on most features.  Consult perlfunc for functions
       which are noted as being identical to Perl's builtin functions.

       The first section describes POSIX functions from the 1003.1 specification.  The second section
       describes some classes for signal objects, TTY objects, and other miscellaneous objects.  The
       remaining sections list various constants and macros in an organization which roughly follows IEEE
       Std 1003.1b-1993.

CAVEATS
       A few functions are not implemented because they are C specific.  If you attempt to call these, they
       will print a message telling you that they aren't implemented, and suggest using the Perl equivalent
       should one exist.  For example, trying to access the setjmp() call will elicit the message "setjmp()
       is C-specific: use eval {} instead".

       Furthermore, some evil vendors will claim 1003.1 compliance, but in fact are not so: they will not
       pass the PCTS (POSIX Compliance Test Suites).  For example, one vendor may not define EDEADLK, or the
       semantics of the errno values set by open(2) might not be quite right.  Perl does not attempt to
       verify POSIX compliance.  That means you can currently successfully say "use POSIX",  and then later
       in your program you find that your vendor has been lax and there's no usable ICANON macro after all.
       This could be construed to be a bug.

FUNCTIONS
       _exit   This is identical to the C function "_exit()".  It exits the program immediately which means
               among other things buffered I/O is not flushed.

               Note that when using threads and in Linux this is not a good way to exit a thread because in
               Linux processes and threads are kind of the same thing (Note: while this is the situation in
               early 2003 there are projects under way to have threads with more POSIXly semantics in
               Linux).  If you want not to return from a thread, detach the thread.

       abort   This is identical to the C function "abort()".  It terminates the process with a "SIGABRT"
               signal unless caught by a signal handler or if the handler does not return normally (it e.g.
               does a "longjmp").

       abs     This is identical to Perl's builtin "abs()" function, returning the absolute value of its
               numerical argument.

       access  Determines the accessibility of a file.

                       if( POSIX::access( "/", &POSIX::R_OK ) ){
                               print "have read permission\n";
                       }

               Returns "undef" on failure.  Note: do not use "access()" for security purposes.  Between the
               "access()" call and the operation you are preparing for the permissions might change: a
               classic race condition.

       acos    This is identical to the C function "acos()", returning the arcus cosine of its numerical
               argument.  See also Math::Trig.

       alarm   This is identical to Perl's builtin "alarm()" function, either for arming or disarming the
               "SIGARLM" timer.

       asctime This is identical to the C function "asctime()".  It returns a string of the form

                       "Fri Jun  2 18:22:13 2000\n\0"

               and it is called thusly

                       $asctime = asctime($sec, $min, $hour, $mday, $mon, $year,
                                          $wday, $yday, $isdst);

               The $mon is zero-based: January equals 0.  The $year is 1900-based: 2001 equals 101.  $wday
               and $yday default to zero (and are usually ignored anyway), and $isdst defaults to -1.

       asin    This is identical to the C function "asin()", returning the arcus sine of its numerical
               argument.  See also Math::Trig.

       assert  Unimplemented, but you can use "die" in perlfunc and the Carp module to achieve similar
               things.

       atan    This is identical to the C function "atan()", returning the arcus tangent of its numerical
               argument.  See also Math::Trig.

       atan2   This is identical to Perl's builtin "atan2()" function, returning the arcus tangent defined
               by its two numerical arguments, the y coordinate and the x coordinate.  See also Math::Trig.

       atexit  atexit() is C-specific: use "END {}" instead, see perlsub.

       atof    atof() is C-specific.  Perl converts strings to numbers transparently.  If you need to force
               a scalar to a number, add a zero to it.

       atoi    atoi() is C-specific.  Perl converts strings to numbers transparently.  If you need to force
               a scalar to a number, add a zero to it.  If you need to have just the integer part, see "int"
               in perlfunc.

       atol    atol() is C-specific.  Perl converts strings to numbers transparently.  If you need to force
               a scalar to a number, add a zero to it.  If you need to have just the integer part, see "int"
               in perlfunc.

               Use the method "IO::Handle::clearerr()" instead, to reset the error state (if any) and EOF
               state (if any) of the given stream.

       clock   This is identical to the C function "clock()", returning the amount of spent processor time
               in microseconds.

               Use "POSIX::close" to close the file.

                       $fd = POSIX::creat( "foo", 0611 );
                       POSIX::close( $fd );

               seconds) between two times (as returned by "time()"), see "time".

       div     div() is C-specific, use "int" in perlfunc on the usual "/" division and the modulus "%".

       dup     This is similar to the C function "dup()", for duplicating a file descriptor.

               This uses file descriptors such as those obtained by calling "POSIX::open".

               Returns "undef" on failure.

       dup2    This is similar to the C function "dup2()", for duplicating a file descriptor to an another
               known file descriptor.

               Consider using regular expressions and the "/[[:digit:]]/" construct instead, or the "/\d/"
               construct.

               whole string.  Note that locale settings may affect what characters are considered "ispunct".
               Does not work on Unicode characters code point 256 or higher.  Consider using regular
               expressions and the "/[[:punct:]]/" construct instead.

       isspace This is identical to the C function, except that it can apply to a single character or to a
               whole string.  Note that locale settings may affect what characters are considered "isspace".
               Does not work on Unicode characters code point 256 or higher.  Consider using regular
               expressions and the "/[[:space:]]/" construct instead, or the "/\s/" construct.  (Note that
               "/\s/" and "/[[:space:]]/" are slightly different in that "/[[:space:]]/" can normally match
               a vertical tab, while "/\s/" does not.)

       isupper This is identical to the C function, except that it can apply to a single character or to a
               whole string.  Note that locale settings may affect what characters are considered "isupper".
               Does not work on Unicode characters code point 256 or higher.  Consider using regular
               expressions and the "/[[:upper:]]/" construct instead.  Do not use "/[A-Z]/".

       isxdigit
               This is identical to the C function, except that it can apply to a single character or to a
               whole string.  Note that locale settings may affect what characters are considered "isxdigit"
               (unlikely, but still possible).  Does not work on Unicode characters code point 256 or
               higher.  Consider using regular expressions and the "/[[:xdigit:]]/" construct instead, or
               simply "/[0-9a-f]/i".

       kill    This is identical to Perl's builtin "kill()" function for sending signals to processes (often
               to terminate them), see "kill" in perlfunc.

       labs    (For returning absolute values of long integers.)  labs() is C-specific, see "abs" in
               perlfunc instead.

       lchown  This is identical to the C function, except the order of arguments is consistent with Perl's
               builtin "chown()" with the added restriction of only one path, not an list of paths.  Does
               the same thing as the "chown()" function but changes the owner of a symbolic link instead of
               the file the symbolic link points to.

       ldexp   This is identical to the C function "ldexp()" for multiplying floating point numbers with
               powers of two.

                       $x_quadrupled = POSIX::ldexp($x, 2);

       ldiv    (For computing dividends of long integers.)  ldiv() is C-specific, use "/" and "int()"
               instead.

       link    This is identical to Perl's builtin "link()" function for creating hard links into files, see
               "link" in perlfunc.

       localeconv
               Get numeric formatting information.  Returns a reference to a hash containing the current
               locale formatting values.

               Here is how to query the database for the de (Deutsch or German) locale.

                       $loc = POSIX::setlocale( &POSIX::LC_ALL, "de" );
                       print "Locale = $loc\n";
                       $lconv = POSIX::localeconv();
                       print "decimal_point    = ", $lconv->{decimal_point},   "\n";
                       print "thousands_sep    = ", $lconv->{thousands_sep},   "\n";
                       print "grouping = ", $lconv->{grouping},        "\n";
                       print "int_curr_symbol  = ", $lconv->{int_curr_symbol}, "\n";
                       print "currency_symbol  = ", $lconv->{currency_symbol}, "\n";
                       print "mon_decimal_point = ", $lconv->{mon_decimal_point}, "\n";
                       print "mon_thousands_sep = ", $lconv->{mon_thousands_sep}, "\n";
                       print "mon_grouping     = ", $lconv->{mon_grouping},    "\n";
                       print "positive_sign    = ", $lconv->{positive_sign},   "\n";
                       print "negative_sign    = ", $lconv->{negative_sign},   "\n";
                       print "int_frac_digits  = ", $lconv->{int_frac_digits}, "\n";
                       print "frac_digits      = ", $lconv->{frac_digits},     "\n";
                       print "p_cs_precedes    = ", $lconv->{p_cs_precedes},   "\n";
                       print "p_sep_by_space   = ", $lconv->{p_sep_by_space},  "\n";
                       print "n_cs_precedes    = ", $lconv->{n_cs_precedes},   "\n";
                       print "n_sep_by_space   = ", $lconv->{n_sep_by_space},  "\n";
                       print "p_sign_posn      = ", $lconv->{p_sign_posn},     "\n";
                       print "n_sign_posn      = ", $lconv->{n_sign_posn},     "\n";

       localtime
               This is identical to Perl's builtin "localtime()" function for converting seconds since the
               epoch to a date see "localtime" in perlfunc.

       log     This is identical to Perl's builtin "log()" function, returning the natural (e-based)
               logarithm of the numerical argument, see "log" in perlfunc.

       log10   This is identical to the C function "log10()", returning the 10-base logarithm of the
               numerical argument.  You can also use

                   sub log10 { log($_[0]) / log(10) }

               or

                   sub log10 { log($_[0]) / 2.30258509299405 }

               or

                   sub log10 { log($_[0]) * 0.434294481903252 }

       longjmp longjmp() is C-specific: use "die" in perlfunc instead.

       lseek   Move the file's read/write position.  This uses file descriptors such as those obtained by
               calling "POSIX::open".

                       $fd = POSIX::open( "foo", &POSIX::O_RDONLY );
                       $off_t = POSIX::lseek( $fd, 0, &POSIX::SEEK_SET );

               Returns "undef" on failure.

       malloc  malloc() is C-specific.  Perl does memory management transparently.

       mblen   This is identical to the C function "mblen()".  Perl does not have any support for the wide
               and multibyte characters of the C standards, so this might be a rather useless function.

       mbstowcs
               This is identical to the C function "mbstowcs()".  Perl does not have any support for the
               wide and multibyte characters of the C standards, so this might be a rather useless function.

       mbtowc  This is identical to the C function "mbtowc()".  Perl does not have any support for the wide
               and multibyte characters of the C standards, so this might be a rather useless function.

       memchr  memchr() is C-specific, see "index" in perlfunc instead.

       memcmp  memcmp() is C-specific, use "eq" instead, see perlop.

       memcpy  memcpy() is C-specific, use "=", see perlop, or see "substr" in perlfunc.

       memmove memmove() is C-specific, use "=", see perlop, or see "substr" in perlfunc.

       memset  memset() is C-specific, use "x" instead, see perlop.

       mkdir   This is identical to Perl's builtin "mkdir()" function for creating directories, see "mkdir"
               in perlfunc.

       mkfifo  This is similar to the C function "mkfifo()" for creating FIFO special files.

                       if (mkfifo($path, $mode)) { ....

               Returns "undef" on failure.  The $mode is similar to the mode of "mkdir()", see "mkdir" in
               perlfunc, though for "mkfifo" you must specify the $mode.

       mktime  Convert date/time info to a calendar time.

               Synopsis:

                       mktime(sec, min, hour, mday, mon, year, wday = 0, yday = 0, isdst = -1)

               The month ("mon"), weekday ("wday"), and yearday ("yday") begin at zero.  I.e. January is 0,
               not 1; Sunday is 0, not 1; January 1st is 0, not 1.  The year ("year") is given in years
               since 1900.  I.e. The year 1995 is 95; the year 2001 is 101.  Consult your system's
               "mktime()" manpage for details about these and the other arguments.

               Calendar time for December 12, 1995, at 10:30 am.

                       $time_t = POSIX::mktime( 0, 30, 10, 12, 11, 95 );
                       print "Date = ", POSIX::ctime($time_t);

               Returns "undef" on failure.

       modf    Return the integral and fractional parts of a floating-point number.

                       ($fractional, $integral) = POSIX::modf( 3.14 );

       nice    This is similar to the C function "nice()", for changing the scheduling preference of the
               current process.  Positive arguments mean more polite process, negative values more needy
               process.  Normal user processes can only be more polite.

               Returns "undef" on failure.

       offsetof
               offsetof() is C-specific, you probably want to see "pack" in perlfunc instead.

       open    Open a file for reading for writing.  This returns file descriptors, not Perl filehandles.
               Use "POSIX::close" to close the file.

               Open a file read-only with mode 0666.

                       $fd = POSIX::open( "foo" );

               Open a file for read and write.

                       $fd = POSIX::open( "foo", &POSIX::O_RDWR );

               Open a file for write, with truncation.

                       $fd = POSIX::open( "foo", &POSIX::O_WRONLY | &POSIX::O_TRUNC );

               Create a new file with mode 0640.  Set up the file for writing.

                       $fd = POSIX::open( "foo", &POSIX::O_CREAT | &POSIX::O_WRONLY, 0640 );

               Returns "undef" on failure.

               See also "sysopen" in perlfunc.

       opendir Open a directory for reading.

                       $dir = POSIX::opendir( "/var" );
                       @files = POSIX::readdir( $dir );
                       POSIX::closedir( $dir );

               Returns "undef" on failure.

       pathconf
               Retrieves the value of a configurable limit on a file or directory.

               The following will determine the maximum length of the longest allowable pathname on the
               filesystem which holds "/var".

                       $path_max = POSIX::pathconf( "/var", &POSIX::_PC_PATH_MAX );

               Returns "undef" on failure.

       pause   This is similar to the C function "pause()", which suspends the execution of the current
               process until a signal is received.

               Returns "undef" on failure.

       perror  This is identical to the C function "perror()", which outputs to the standard error stream
               the specified message followed by ": " and the current error string.  Use the "warn()"
               function and the $!  variable instead, see "warn" in perlfunc and "$ERRNO" in perlvar.

       pipe    Create an interprocess channel.  This returns file descriptors like those returned by
               "POSIX::open".

                       my ($read, $write) = POSIX::pipe();
                       POSIX::write( $write, "hello", 5 );
                       POSIX::read( $read, $buf, 5 );

               See also "pipe" in perlfunc.

       pow     Computes $x raised to the power $exponent.

                       $ret = POSIX::pow( $x, $exponent );

               You can also use the "**" operator, see perlop.

       printf  Formats and prints the specified arguments to STDOUT.  See also "printf" in perlfunc.

       putc    putc() is C-specific, see "print" in perlfunc instead.

       putchar putchar() is C-specific, see "print" in perlfunc instead.

       puts    puts() is C-specific, see "print" in perlfunc instead.

       qsort   qsort() is C-specific, see "sort" in perlfunc instead.

       raise   Sends the specified signal to the current process.  See also "kill" in perlfunc and the $$ in
               "$PID" in perlvar.

       rand    "rand()" is non-portable, see "rand" in perlfunc instead.

       read    Read from a file.  This uses file descriptors such as those obtained by calling
               "POSIX::open".  If the buffer $buf is not large enough for the read then Perl will extend it
               to make room for the request.

                       $fd = POSIX::open( "foo", &POSIX::O_RDONLY );
                       $bytes = POSIX::read( $fd, $buf, 3 );

               Returns "undef" on failure.

               See also "sysread" in perlfunc.

       readdir This is identical to Perl's builtin "readdir()" function for reading directory entries, see
               "readdir" in perlfunc.

       realloc realloc() is C-specific.  Perl does memory management transparently.

       remove  This is identical to Perl's builtin "unlink()" function for removing files, see "unlink" in
               perlfunc.

       rename  This is identical to Perl's builtin "rename()" function for renaming files, see "rename" in
               perlfunc.

       rewind  Seeks to the beginning of the file.

       rewinddir
               This is identical to Perl's builtin "rewinddir()" function for rewinding directory entry
               streams, see "rewinddir" in perlfunc.

       rmdir   This is identical to Perl's builtin "rmdir()" function for removing (empty) directories, see
               "rmdir" in perlfunc.

       scanf   scanf() is C-specific, use <> and regular expressions instead, see perlre.

       setgid  Sets the real group identifier and the effective group identifier for this process.  Similar
               to assigning a value to the Perl's builtin $) variable, see "$EGID" in perlvar, except that
               the latter will change only the real user identifier, and that the setgid() uses only a
               single numeric argument, as opposed to a space-separated list of numbers.

       setjmp  "setjmp()" is C-specific: use "eval {}" instead, see "eval" in perlfunc.

       setlocale
               Modifies and queries program's locale.  The following examples assume

                       use POSIX qw(setlocale LC_ALL LC_CTYPE);

               has been issued.

               The following will set the traditional UNIX system locale behavior (the second argument "C").

                       $loc = setlocale( LC_ALL, "C" );

               The following will query the current LC_CTYPE category.  (No second argument means 'query'.)

                       $loc = setlocale( LC_CTYPE );

               The following will set the LC_CTYPE behaviour according to the locale environment variables
               (the second argument "").  Please see your systems setlocale(3) documentation for the locale
               environment variables' meaning or consult perllocale.

                       $loc = setlocale( LC_CTYPE, "" );

               The following will set the LC_COLLATE behaviour to Argentinian Spanish. NOTE: The naming and
               availability of locales depends on your operating system. Please consult perllocale for how
               to find out which locales are available in your system.

                       $loc = setlocale( LC_COLLATE, "es_AR.ISO8859-1" );

       setpgid This is similar to the C function "setpgid()" for setting the process group identifier of the
               current process.

               Returns "undef" on failure.

       setsid  This is identical to the C function "setsid()" for setting the session identifier of the
               current process.

       setuid  Sets the real user identifier and the effective user identifier for this process.  Similar to
               assigning a value to the Perl's builtin $< variable, see "$UID" in perlvar, except that the
               latter will change only the real user identifier.

       sigaction
               Detailed signal management.  This uses "POSIX::SigAction" objects for the "action" and
               "oldaction" arguments (the oldaction can also be just a hash reference).  Consult your
               system's "sigaction" manpage for details, see also "POSIX::SigRt".

               Synopsis:

                       sigaction(signal, action, oldaction = 0)

               Returns "undef" on failure.  The "signal" must be a number (like SIGHUP), not a string (like
               "SIGHUP"), though Perl does try hard to understand you.

               If you use the SA_SIGINFO flag, the signal handler will in addition to the first argument,
               the signal name, also receive a second argument, a hash reference, inside which are the
               following keys with the following semantics, as defined by POSIX/SUSv3:

                   signo       the signal number
                   errno       the error number
                   code        if this is zero or less, the signal was sent by
                               a user process and the uid and pid make sense,
                               otherwise the signal was sent by the kernel

               The following are also defined by POSIX/SUSv3, but unfortunately not very widely implemented:

                   pid         the process id generating the signal
                   uid         the uid of the process id generating the signal
                   status      exit value or signal for SIGCHLD
                   band        band event for SIGPOLL

               A third argument is also passed to the handler, which contains a copy of the raw binary
               contents of the siginfo structure: if a system has some non-POSIX fields, this third argument
               is where to unpack() them from.

               Note that not all siginfo values make sense simultaneously (some are valid only for certain
               signals, for example), and not all values make sense from Perl perspective, you should to
               consult your system's "sigaction" and possibly also "siginfo" documentation.

       siglongjmp
               siglongjmp() is C-specific: use "die" in perlfunc instead.

       sigpending
               Examine signals that are blocked and pending.  This uses "POSIX::SigSet" objects for the
               "sigset" argument.  Consult your system's "sigpending" manpage for details.

               Synopsis:

                       sigpending(sigset)

               Returns "undef" on failure.

       sigprocmask
               Change and/or examine calling process's signal mask.  This uses "POSIX::SigSet" objects for
               the "sigset" and "oldsigset" arguments.  Consult your system's "sigprocmask" manpage for
               details.

               Synopsis:

                       sigprocmask(how, sigset, oldsigset = 0)

               Returns "undef" on failure.

               Note that you can't reliably block or unblock a signal from its own signal handler if you're
               using safe signals. Other signals can be blocked or unblocked reliably.

       sigsetjmp
               "sigsetjmp()" is C-specific: use "eval {}" instead, see "eval" in perlfunc.

       sigsuspend
               Install a signal mask and suspend process until signal arrives.  This uses "POSIX::SigSet"
               objects for the "signal_mask" argument.  Consult your system's "sigsuspend" manpage for
               details.

               Synopsis:

                       sigsuspend(signal_mask)

               Returns "undef" on failure.

       sin     This is identical to Perl's builtin "sin()" function for returning the sine of the numerical
               argument, see "sin" in perlfunc.  See also Math::Trig.

       sinh    This is identical to the C function "sinh()" for returning the hyperbolic sine of the
               numerical argument.  See also Math::Trig.

       sleep   This is functionally identical to Perl's builtin "sleep()" function for suspending the
               execution of the current for process for certain number of seconds, see "sleep" in perlfunc.
               There is one significant difference, however: "POSIX::sleep()" returns the number of unslept
               seconds, while the "CORE::sleep()" returns the number of slept seconds.

       sprintf This is similar to Perl's builtin "sprintf()" function for returning a string that has the
               arguments formatted as requested, see "sprintf" in perlfunc.

       sqrt    This is identical to Perl's builtin "sqrt()" function.  for returning the square root of the
               numerical argument, see "sqrt" in perlfunc.

       srand   Give a seed the pseudorandom number generator, see "srand" in perlfunc.

       sscanf  sscanf() is C-specific, use regular expressions instead, see perlre.

       stat    This is identical to Perl's builtin "stat()" function for returning information about files
               and directories.

       strcat  strcat() is C-specific, use ".=" instead, see perlop.

       strchr  strchr() is C-specific, see "index" in perlfunc instead.

       strcmp  strcmp() is C-specific, use "eq" or "cmp" instead, see perlop.

       strcoll This is identical to the C function "strcoll()" for collating (comparing) strings transformed
               using the "strxfrm()" function.  Not really needed since Perl can do this transparently, see
               perllocale.

       strcpy  strcpy() is C-specific, use "=" instead, see perlop.

       strcspn strcspn() is C-specific, use regular expressions instead, see perlre.

       strerror
               Returns the error string for the specified errno.  Identical to the string form of the $!,
               see "$ERRNO" in perlvar.

       strftime
               Convert date and time information to string.  Returns the string.

               Synopsis:

                       strftime(fmt, sec, min, hour, mday, mon, year, wday = -1, yday = -1, isdst = -1)

               The month ("mon"), weekday ("wday"), and yearday ("yday") begin at zero.  I.e. January is 0,
               not 1; Sunday is 0, not 1; January 1st is 0, not 1.  The year ("year") is given in years
               since 1900.  I.e., the year 1995 is 95; the year 2001 is 101.  Consult your system's
               "strftime()" manpage for details about these and the other arguments.

               If you want your code to be portable, your format ("fmt") argument should use only the
               conversion specifiers defined by the ANSI C standard (C89, to play safe).  These are
               "aAbBcdHIjmMpSUwWxXyYZ%".  But even then, the results of some of the conversion specifiers
               are non-portable.  For example, the specifiers "aAbBcpZ" change according to the locale
               settings of the user, and both how to set locales (the locale names) and what output to
               expect are non-standard.  The specifier "c" changes according to the timezone settings of the
               user and the timezone computation rules of the operating system.  The "Z" specifier is
               notoriously unportable since the names of timezones are non-standard. Sticking to the numeric
               specifiers is the safest route.

               The given arguments are made consistent as though by calling "mktime()" before calling your
               system's "strftime()" function, except that the "isdst" value is not affected.

               The string for Tuesday, December 12, 1995.

                       $str = POSIX::strftime( "%A, %B %d, %Y", 0, 0, 0, 12, 11, 95, 2 );
                       print "$str\n";

       strlen  strlen() is C-specific, use "length()" instead, see "length" in perlfunc.

       strncat strncat() is C-specific, use ".=" instead, see perlop.

       strncmp strncmp() is C-specific, use "eq" instead, see perlop.

       strncpy strncpy() is C-specific, use "=" instead, see perlop.

       strpbrk strpbrk() is C-specific, use regular expressions instead, see perlre.

       strrchr strrchr() is C-specific, see "rindex" in perlfunc instead.

       strspn  strspn() is C-specific, use regular expressions instead, see perlre.

       strstr  This is identical to Perl's builtin "index()" function, see "index" in perlfunc.

       strtod  String to double translation. Returns the parsed number and the number of characters in the
               unparsed portion of the string.  Truly POSIX-compliant systems set $! ($ERRNO) to indicate a
               translation error, so clear $! before calling strtod.  However, non-POSIX systems may not
               check for overflow, and therefore will never set $!.

               strtod should respect any POSIX setlocale() settings.

               To parse a string $str as a floating point number use

                   $! = 0;
                   ($num, $n_unparsed) = POSIX::strtod($str);

               The second returned item and $! can be used to check for valid input:

                   if (($str eq '') || ($n_unparsed != 0) || $!) {
                       die "Non-numeric input $str" . ($! ? ": $!\n" : "\n");
                   }

               When called in a scalar context strtod returns the parsed number.

       strtok  strtok() is C-specific, use regular expressions instead, see perlre, or "split" in perlfunc.

       strtol  String to (long) integer translation.  Returns the parsed number and the number of characters
               in the unparsed portion of the string.  Truly POSIX-compliant systems set $! ($ERRNO) to
               indicate a translation error, so clear $! before calling strtol.  However, non-POSIX systems
               may not check for overflow, and therefore will never set $!.

               strtol should respect any POSIX setlocale() settings.

               To parse a string $str as a number in some base $base use

                   $! = 0;
                   ($num, $n_unparsed) = POSIX::strtol($str, $base);

               The base should be zero or between 2 and 36, inclusive.  When the base is zero or omitted
               strtol will use the string itself to determine the base: a leading "0x" or "0X" means
               hexadecimal; a leading "0" means octal; any other leading characters mean decimal.  Thus,
               "1234" is parsed as a decimal number, "01234" as an octal number, and "0x1234" as a
               hexadecimal number.

               The second returned item and $! can be used to check for valid input:

                   if (($str eq '') || ($n_unparsed != 0) || !$!) {
                       die "Non-numeric input $str" . $! ? ": $!\n" : "\n";
                   }

               When called in a scalar context strtol returns the parsed number.

       strtoul String to unsigned (long) integer translation.  strtoul() is identical to strtol() except
               that strtoul() only parses unsigned integers.  See "strtol" for details.

               Note: Some vendors supply strtod() and strtol() but not strtoul().  Other vendors that do
               supply strtoul() parse "-1" as a valid value.

       strxfrm String transformation.  Returns the transformed string.

                       $dst = POSIX::strxfrm( $src );

               Used in conjunction with the "strcoll()" function, see "strcoll".

               Not really needed since Perl can do this transparently, see perllocale.

       sysconf Retrieves values of system configurable variables.

               The following will get the machine's clock speed.

                       $clock_ticks = POSIX::sysconf( &POSIX::_SC_CLK_TCK );

               Returns "undef" on failure.

       system  This is identical to Perl's builtin "system()" function, see "system" in perlfunc.

       tan     This is identical to the C function "tan()", returning the tangent of the numerical argument.
               See also Math::Trig.

       tanh    This is identical to the C function "tanh()", returning the hyperbolic tangent of the
               numerical argument.   See also Math::Trig.

       tcdrain This is similar to the C function "tcdrain()" for draining the output queue of its argument
               stream.

               Returns "undef" on failure.

       tcflow  This is similar to the C function "tcflow()" for controlling the flow of its argument stream.

               Returns "undef" on failure.

       tcflush This is similar to the C function "tcflush()" for flushing the I/O buffers of its argument
               stream.

               Returns "undef" on failure.

       tcgetpgrp
               This is identical to the C function "tcgetpgrp()" for returning the process group identifier
               of the foreground process group of the controlling terminal.

       tcsendbreak
               This is similar to the C function "tcsendbreak()" for sending a break on its argument stream.

               Returns "undef" on failure.

       tcsetpgrp
               This is similar to the C function "tcsetpgrp()" for setting the process group identifier of
               the foreground process group of the controlling terminal.

               Returns "undef" on failure.

       time    This is identical to Perl's builtin "time()" function for returning the number of seconds
               since the epoch (whatever it is for the system), see "time" in perlfunc.

       times   The times() function returns elapsed realtime since some point in the past (such as system
               startup), user and system times for this process, and user and system times used by child
               processes.  All times are returned in clock ticks.

                   ($realtime, $user, $system, $cuser, $csystem) = POSIX::times();

               Note: Perl's builtin "times()" function returns four values, measured in seconds.

       tmpfile Use method "IO::File::new_tmpfile()" instead, or see File::Temp.

       tmpnam  Returns a name for a temporary file.

                       $tmpfile = POSIX::tmpnam();

               For security reasons, which are probably detailed in your system's documentation for the C
               library tmpnam() function, this interface should not be used; instead see File::Temp.

       tolower This is identical to the C function, except that it can apply to a single character or to a
               whole string.  Consider using the "lc()" function, see "lc" in perlfunc, or the equivalent
               "\L" operator inside doublequotish strings.

       toupper This is identical to the C function, except that it can apply to a single character or to a
               whole string.  Consider using the "uc()" function, see "uc" in perlfunc, or the equivalent
               "\U" operator inside doublequotish strings.

       ttyname This is identical to the C function "ttyname()" for returning the name of the current
               terminal.

       tzname  Retrieves the time conversion information from the "tzname" variable.

                       POSIX::tzset();
                       ($std, $dst) = POSIX::tzname();

       tzset   This is identical to the C function "tzset()" for setting the current timezone based on the
               environment variable "TZ", to be used by "ctime()", "localtime()", "mktime()", and
               "strftime()" functions.

       umask   This is identical to Perl's builtin "umask()" function for setting (and querying) the file
               creation permission mask, see "umask" in perlfunc.

       uname   Get name of current operating system.

                       ($sysname, $nodename, $release, $version, $machine) = POSIX::uname();

               Note that the actual meanings of the various fields are not that well standardized, do not
               expect any great portability.  The $sysname might be the name of the operating system, the
               $nodename might be the name of the host, the $release might be the (major) release number of
               the operating system, the $version might be the (minor) release number of the operating
               system, and the $machine might be a hardware identifier.  Maybe.

       ungetc  Use method "IO::Handle::ungetc()" instead.

       unlink  This is identical to Perl's builtin "unlink()" function for removing files, see "unlink" in
               perlfunc.

       utime   This is identical to Perl's builtin "utime()" function for changing the time stamps of files
               and directories, see "utime" in perlfunc.

       vfprintf
               vfprintf() is C-specific, see "printf" in perlfunc instead.

       vprintf vprintf() is C-specific, see "printf" in perlfunc instead.

       vsprintf
               vsprintf() is C-specific, see "sprintf" in perlfunc instead.

       wait    This is identical to Perl's builtin "wait()" function, see "wait" in perlfunc.

       waitpid Wait for a child process to change state.  This is identical to Perl's builtin "waitpid()"
               function, see "waitpid" in perlfunc.

                       $pid = POSIX::waitpid( -1, POSIX::WNOHANG );
                       print "status = ", ($? / 256), "\n";

       wcstombs
               This is identical to the C function "wcstombs()".  Perl does not have any support for the
               wide and multibyte characters of the C standards, so this might be a rather useless function.

       wctomb  This is identical to the C function "wctomb()".  Perl does not have any support for the wide
               and multibyte characters of the C standards, so this might be a rather useless function.

       write   Write to a file.  This uses file descriptors such as those obtained by calling "POSIX::open".

                       $fd = POSIX::open( "foo", &POSIX::O_WRONLY );
                       $buf = "hello";
                       $bytes = POSIX::write( $fd, $buf, 5 );

               Returns "undef" on failure.

               See also "syswrite" in perlfunc.

CLASSES
   POSIX::SigAction
       new     Creates a new "POSIX::SigAction" object which corresponds to the C "struct sigaction".  This
               object will be destroyed automatically when it is no longer needed.  The first parameter is
               the handler, a sub reference.  The second parameter is a "POSIX::SigSet" object, it defaults
               to the empty set.  The third parameter contains the "sa_flags", it defaults to 0.

                       $sigset = POSIX::SigSet->new(SIGINT, SIGQUIT);
                       $sigaction = POSIX::SigAction->new( \&handler, $sigset, &POSIX::SA_NOCLDSTOP );

               This "POSIX::SigAction" object is intended for use with the "POSIX::sigaction()" function.

       handler
       mask
       flags   accessor functions to get/set the values of a SigAction object.

                       $sigset = $sigaction->mask;
                       $sigaction->flags(&POSIX::SA_RESTART);

       safe    accessor function for the "safe signals" flag of a SigAction object; see perlipc for general
               information on safe (a.k.a. "deferred") signals.  If you wish to handle a signal safely, use
               this accessor to set the "safe" flag in the "POSIX::SigAction" object:

                       $sigaction->safe(1);

               You may also examine the "safe" flag on the output action object which is filled in when
               given as the third parameter to "POSIX::sigaction()":

                       sigaction(SIGINT, $new_action, $old_action);
                       if ($old_action->safe) {
                           # previous SIGINT handler used safe signals
                       }

   POSIX::SigRt
       %SIGRT  A hash of the POSIX realtime signal handlers.  It is an extension of the standard %SIG, the
               $POSIX::SIGRT{SIGRTMIN} is roughly equivalent to $SIG{SIGRTMIN}, but the right POSIX moves
               (see below) are made with the POSIX::SigSet and POSIX::sigaction instead of accessing the
               %SIG.

               You can set the %POSIX::SIGRT elements to set the POSIX realtime signal handlers, use
               "delete" and "exists" on the elements, and use "scalar" on the %POSIX::SIGRT to find out how
               many POSIX realtime signals there are available (SIGRTMAX - SIGRTMIN + 1, the SIGRTMAX is a
               valid POSIX realtime signal).

               Setting the %SIGRT elements is equivalent to calling this:

                 sub new {
                   my ($rtsig, $handler, $flags) = @_;
                   my $sigset = POSIX::SigSet($rtsig);
                   my $sigact = POSIX::SigAction->new($handler, $sigset, $flags);
                   sigaction($rtsig, $sigact);
                 }

               The flags default to zero, if you want something different you can either use "local" on
               $POSIX::SigRt::SIGACTION_FLAGS, or you can derive from POSIX::SigRt and define your own
               "new()" (the tied hash STORE method of the %SIGRT calls "new($rtsig, $handler,
               $SIGACTION_FLAGS)", where the $rtsig ranges from zero to SIGRTMAX - SIGRTMIN + 1).

               Just as with any signal, you can use sigaction($rtsig, undef, $oa) to retrieve the installed
               signal handler (or, rather, the signal action).

               NOTE: whether POSIX realtime signals really work in your system, or whether Perl has been
               compiled so that it works with them, is outside of this discussion.

       SIGRTMIN
               Return the minimum POSIX realtime signal number available, or "undef" if no POSIX realtime
               signals are available.

       SIGRTMAX
               Return the maximum POSIX realtime signal number available, or "undef" if no POSIX realtime
               signals are available.

   POSIX::SigSet
       new     Create a new SigSet object.  This object will be destroyed automatically when it is no longer
               needed.  Arguments may be supplied to initialize the set.

               Create an empty set.

                       $sigset = POSIX::SigSet->new;

               Create a set with SIGUSR1.

                       $sigset = POSIX::SigSet->new( &POSIX::SIGUSR1 );

       addset  Add a signal to a SigSet object.

                       $sigset->addset( &POSIX::SIGUSR2 );

               Returns "undef" on failure.

       delset  Remove a signal from the SigSet object.

                       $sigset->delset( &POSIX::SIGUSR2 );

               Returns "undef" on failure.

       emptyset
               Initialize the SigSet object to be empty.

                       $sigset->emptyset();

               Returns "undef" on failure.

       fillset Initialize the SigSet object to include all signals.

                       $sigset->fillset();

               Returns "undef" on failure.

       ismember
               Tests the SigSet object to see if it contains a specific signal.

                       if( $sigset->ismember( &POSIX::SIGUSR1 ) ){
                               print "contains SIGUSR1\n";
                       }

   POSIX::Termios
       new     Create a new Termios object.  This object will be destroyed automatically when it is no
               longer needed.  A Termios object corresponds to the termios C struct.  new() mallocs a new
               one, getattr() fills it from a file descriptor, and setattr() sets a file descriptor's
               parameters to match Termios' contents.

                       $termios = POSIX::Termios->new;

       getattr Get terminal control attributes.

               Obtain the attributes for stdin.

                       $termios->getattr( 0 ) # Recommended for clarity.
                       $termios->getattr()

               Obtain the attributes for stdout.

                       $termios->getattr( 1 )

               Returns "undef" on failure.

       getcc   Retrieve a value from the c_cc field of a termios object.  The c_cc field is an array so an
               index must be specified.

                       $c_cc[1] = $termios->getcc(1);

       getcflag
               Retrieve the c_cflag field of a termios object.

                       $c_cflag = $termios->getcflag;

       getiflag
               Retrieve the c_iflag field of a termios object.

                       $c_iflag = $termios->getiflag;

       getispeed
               Retrieve the input baud rate.

                       $ispeed = $termios->getispeed;

       getlflag
               Retrieve the c_lflag field of a termios object.

                       $c_lflag = $termios->getlflag;

       getoflag
               Retrieve the c_oflag field of a termios object.

                       $c_oflag = $termios->getoflag;

       getospeed
               Retrieve the output baud rate.

                       $ospeed = $termios->getospeed;

       setattr Set terminal control attributes.

               Set attributes immediately for stdout.

                       $termios->setattr( 1, &POSIX::TCSANOW );

               Returns "undef" on failure.

       setcc   Set a value in the c_cc field of a termios object.  The c_cc field is an array so an index
               must be specified.

                       $termios->setcc( &POSIX::VEOF, 1 );

       setcflag
               Set the c_cflag field of a termios object.

       setispeed
               Set the input baud rate.

                       $termios->setispeed( &POSIX::B9600 );

               Returns "undef" on failure.

       setlflag
               Set the c_lflag field of a termios object.

                       $termios->setlflag( $c_lflag | &POSIX::ECHO );

       setoflag
               Set the c_oflag field of a termios object.

                       $termios->setoflag( $c_oflag | &POSIX::OPOST );

       setospeed
               Set the output baud rate.

                       $termios->setospeed( &POSIX::B9600 );

               WNOHANG WUNTRACED

               WNOHANG         Do not suspend the calling process until a child process changes state but
                               instead return immediately.

               WUNTRACED       Catch stopped child processes.

               WIFEXITED       WIFEXITED(${^CHILD_ERROR_NATIVE}) returns true if the child process exited
                               normally ("exit()" or by falling off the end of "main()")

               WEXITSTATUS     WEXITSTATUS(${^CHILD_ERROR_NATIVE}) returns the normal exit status of the
                               child process (only meaningful if WIFEXITED(${^CHILD_ERROR_NATIVE}) is true)

               WIFSIGNALED     WIFSIGNALED(${^CHILD_ERROR_NATIVE}) returns true if the child process
                               terminated because of a signal

               WTERMSIG        WTERMSIG(${^CHILD_ERROR_NATIVE}) returns the signal the child process
                               terminated for (only meaningful if WIFSIGNALED(${^CHILD_ERROR_NATIVE}) is
                               true)

               WIFSTOPPED      WIFSTOPPED(${^CHILD_ERROR_NATIVE}) returns true if the child process is
                               currently stopped (can happen only if you specified the WUNTRACED flag to
                               waitpid())
