cd_defs(3)							    cd_defs(3)

NAME
       cd_defs	- sets or gets default values for the User or Group ID, or for
       file or directory permissions

SYNOPSIS
       #include <sys/cdrom.h>

       int cd_defs(
	       char *path,
	       int cmd,
	       struct cd_defs *defs );

LIBRARY
       Rock Ridge and X/Open Extensions	 to  the  CDFS	library	 (libcdrom.so,
       libcdrom.a)

PARAMETERS
       Points  to a mount point of a CD-ROM File System.  Can be set to either
       {CD_SETDEFS} to set or {CD_GETDEFS} to get the default values  for  the
       UID,  GID,  or  file  or	 directory  permissions for the mounted CD-ROM
       pointed to by *path. The variables {CD_SETDEFS}	and  {CD_GETDEFS}  are
       defined	 in   cdfs/xcdr.h,   an	 include  file	that  is  called  into
       sys/cdrom.h.  Points to the cd_defs structure that  holds  the  default
       values  for  the	 UID,  GID,  and file or directory permissions for the
       mounted CD-ROM pointed to by *path. The cd_defs structure is defined in
       cdfs/xcdr.h, an include file that is called into sys/cdrom.h.

DESCRIPTION
       The  cd_defs()  routine sets or gets the default values for UIDs, GIDs,
       or file or directory permissions for a mounted CD-ROM.

RESTRICTIONS
       Setting default values is restricted  to	 users	with  the  appropriate
       privileges.  This function is intended to be used to set default values
       only directly after the CD-ROM is mounted  and  before  its  files  and
       directories  are	 accessed.  Attempting	to  use	 this  function to set
       default values after files or  directories  on  the  CD-ROM  have  been
       accessed may produce unpredictable results.

RETURN VALUES
       If successful, the value zero is returned. If unsuccessful, the integer
       -1 is returned and errno is set to indicate the error.

ERRORS
       The function will fail if: Search permission is denied for a  directory
       in  *path or read permission is denied on the mount-point.  The address
       of *defs or *path is invalid.  A signal was caught during execution  of
       the  function.  The argument *path does not point to a mount-point of a
       CD-ROM File System. The value of	 cmd  or  values  of  members  of  the
       cd_defs	structure  are	invalid.  {OPEN_MAX} file descriptors are cur‐
       rently open in the calling process.

	      [Tru64 UNIX]  Either the OPEN_MAX value or the per-process  soft
	      descriptor  limit	 is  checked.	The length of the *path string
	      exceeds {PATH_MAX}, or  a	 pathname  component  is  longer  than
	      {NAME_MAX}  while	 {_POSIX_NO_TRUNC}  is	in effect.  The system
	      file table is full.  A component of *path does not exist, or the
	      *path  argument  points  to an empty string.  A component of the
	      *path prefix is not a directory.	The user  does	not  have  the
	      appropriate privileges to set values.
