>Environment:
2.1.0-Release from Walnut Creek CD
>Description:
The rmdir(1) command cannot remove a directory with linknumber>2.
With the link(2) system call, the superuser can make a hard link
to a directory, and after it, rmdir failes.
(Opps, from the source, I've found that the rmdir(2) syscall has
this bug.)
>How-To-Repeat:
$ cd /tmp
$ mkdir lo
$ link lo lolo
$ rmdir lo
rmdir: lo: Directory not empty
/* And the link source: */
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <errno.h>
main( argc, argv )
int argc;
char *argv[];
{
if ( link( argv[ 1 ], argv[ 2 ] ) < 0 ) {
perror( "link failed" );
return( errno );
}
return( 0 );
}
/* end */
