Hey guys,
I'm given this bit of code, but, I'm having some problems executing it with the functions I've defined so far. I'm suppose to define the funtions "parse" and "execute." Parse splits the command in buf into individual arguments. It strips whitespace, replacing those it finds with NULLS... (3 Replies)

Is there a performance advantage of one of these over the other? Obviously, it makes no sense to use normal TCP sockets or UDP sockets w/ the overhead they carry. But what about UNIX domain sockets vs FIFOs? I'd think they'd be very similar, in terms of performance and in terms of how they're... (2 Replies)

mkfifo
MKFIFO(1) BSD General Commands Manual MKFIFO(1) NAME
mkfifo -- make fifos SYNOPSIS
mkfifo [-m mode] fifo_name ... DESCRIPTION
The mkfifo utility creates the fifos requested, in the order specified. The options are as follows: -m Set the file permission bits of the created fifos to the specified mode, ignoring the umask(2) of the calling process. The mode argument takes any format that can be specified to the chmod(1) command. If a symbolic mode is specified, the op symbols '+' (plus) and '-' (hyphen) are interpreted relative to an assumed initial mode of ``a=rw'' (read and write permissions for all). If the -m option is not specified, fifos are created with mode 0666 modified by the umask(2) of the calling process. The mkfifo utility requires write permission in the parent directory. EXIT STATUS
The mkfifo utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs. SEE ALSO
mkdir(1), rm(1), mkfifo(2), mknod(2), mknod(8) STANDARDS
The mkfifo utility is expected to be IEEE Std 1003.2 (``POSIX.2'') compliant. HISTORY
The mkfifo command appeared in 4.4BSD. BSD
