<h2>fpathconf()--Get Configurable Path Name Variables by Descriptor</h2>
<div class="box" style="width: 70%;">
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;Syntax<br>
<pre>
#include &lt;unistd.h&gt;
long fpathconf(int <em>file_descriptor</em>, int <em>name</em>);
</pre>
&nbsp;&nbsp;Service Program Name: QP0LLIB1<br>
<!-- iddvc RMBR -->
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;Default Public Authority: *USE<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;Threadsafe: Conditional; see <a href="#USAGE_NOTES">Usage Notes</a>.<br>
<!-- iddvc RMBR -->
<br>
</div>
<p>The <strong>fpathconf()</strong> function determines the value of a
configuration variable (<em>name</em>) associated with a particular file
descriptor (<em>file_descriptor</em>). <strong>fpathconf()</strong> works
exactly like <strong>pathconf()</strong>, except that it takes a file
descriptor as an argument rather than taking a path name.</p>
<p>If <em>file_descriptor</em> is a descriptor for a socket, <strong>
fpathconf()</strong> returns an error of [EINVAL].</p>
<br>
<h3>Parameters</h3>
<dl>
<dt><strong><em>file_descriptor</em></strong></dt>
<dd>(Input) A file descriptor of the file for which the value of the
configurable variable is requested.<br>
</dd>
<dt><strong><em>name</em></strong></dt>
<dd>(Input) The name of the configuration variable value requested.</dd>
</dl>
<p>The value of <em>name</em> can be any one of a set of symbols defined in the
&lt;<strong>unistd.h</strong>&gt; include file.

<br>
<h3>Authorities</h3>
<p>No authorization is required.</p>
<br>
<h3>Return Value</h3>
<dl compact>
<dt><em>value</em></dt>
<dd><strong>fpathconf()</strong> was successful. The value of the variable
requested in <em>name</em> is returned.</dd>
<dt><em>-1</em></dt>
<dd>One of the following has occurred:<br>
<br>
<ul>
<li>A particular variable has no limit (for example, _PC_PATH_MAX). The <em>
errno</em> global variable is not changed.<br>
</li>
<li><strong>fpathconf()</strong> was not successful. The <em>errno</em> is
set.</li>
</ul>
</dd>
</dl>
<br>
<h3>Error Conditions</h3>
<p>If <strong>fpathconf()</strong> is not successful, <em>errno</em> usually
indicates one of the following errors. Under some conditions, <em>errno</em>
could indicate an error other than those listed here.</p>

<p>If you are accessing a remote file through the Network File System, update
operations to file permissions at the server are not reflected at the client
until updates to data that is stored locally by the Network File System take
place. (Several options on the Add Mounted File System (ADDMFS) command
determine the time between refresh operations of local data.) Access to a
remote file may also fail due to different mappings of user IDs (UID) or group
IDs (GID) on the local and remote systems.</p>
