The submission queue entry +.I sqe +is setup to use the old directory file descriptor pointed to by +.I olddirfd +and old path pointed to by +.I oldpath +with the new directory file descriptor pointed to by +.I newdirfd +and the new path pointed to by +.I newpath +and using the specified flags in +.IR flags . + +The +.BR io_uring_prep_rename (3) +function prepares a rename request. The submission queue entry +.I sqe +is setup to use the old path pointed to by +.I oldpath +with the new path pointed to by +.IR newpath , +both relative to the current working directory and using the specified flags in +.IR flags . + +These functions prepare an async +.BR renameat2 (2) +or +.BR rename (2) +request. If +.I flags +is zero, then this call is similar to the +.BR renameat (2) +system call. See those man pages for details. + +.SH RETURN VALUE +None +.SH ERRORS +The CQE +.I res +field will contain the result of the operation. See the related man page for +details on possible values. Note that where synchronous system calls will return +.B -1 +on failure and set +.I errno +to the actual error value, io_uring never uses +.IR errno . +Instead it returns the negated +.I errno +directly in the CQE +.I res +field. +.SH NOTES +As with any request that passes in data in a struct, that data must remain +valid until the request has been successfully submitted. It need not remain +valid until completion. Once a request has been submitted, the in-kernel +state is stable. Very early kernels (5.4 and earlier) required state to be +stable until the completion occurred. Applications can test for this +behavior by inspecting the +.B IORING_FEAT_SUBMIT_STABLE +flag passed back from +.BR io_uring_queue_init_params (3). +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR io_uring_get_sqe (3), +.BR io_uring_submit (3), +.BR renameat (2), +.BR renameat2 (2), +.BR rename (2) |
