.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.B attr_remove
|
|
and
|
|
.B attr_removef
|
|
functions provide a way to remove previously created attributes
|
|
from filesystem objects.
|
|
.P
|
|
.I Path\^
|
|
points to a path name for a filesystem object, and
|
|
.I fd\^
|
|
refers to the file descriptor associated with a file.
|
|
If the attribute
|
|
.I attrname
|
|
exists, the attribute name and value will be removed from the
|
|
fileystem object.
|
|
The
|
|
.I flags
|
|
argument can contain the following symbols bitwise OR\'ed together:
|
|
.TP
|
|
.SM
|
|
\%ATTR_ROOT
|
|
Look for
|
|
.I attrname
|
|
in the
|
|
.B root
|
|
address space, not in the
|
|
.B user
|
|
address space.
|
|
(limited to use by super-user only)
|
|
.TP
|
|
.SM
|
|
\%ATTR_DONTFOLLOW
|
|
Do not follow symbolic links when resolving a
|
|
.I path
|
|
on an
|
|
.B attr_remove
|
|
function call.
|
|
The default is to follow symbolic links.
|
