1//! Filesystem manipulation operations.
2//!
3//! This module contains basic methods to manipulate the contents of the local
4//! filesystem. All methods in this module represent cross-platform filesystem
5//! operations. Extra platform-specific functionality can be found in the
6//! extension traits of `std::os::$platform`.
7//!
8//! # Time of Check to Time of Use (TOCTOU)
9//!
10//! Many filesystem operations are subject to a race condition known as "Time of Check to Time of Use"
11//! (TOCTOU). This occurs when a program checks a condition (like file existence or permissions)
12//! and then uses the result of that check to make a decision, but the condition may have changed
13//! between the check and the use.
14//!
15//! For example, checking if a file exists and then creating it if it doesn't is vulnerable to
16//! TOCTOU - another process could create the file between your check and creation attempt.
17//!
18//! Another example is with symbolic links: when removing a directory, if another process replaces
19//! the directory with a symbolic link between the check and the removal operation, the removal
20//! might affect the wrong location. This is why operations like [`remove_dir_all`] need to use
21//! atomic operations to prevent such race conditions.
22//!
23//! To avoid TOCTOU issues:
24//! - Be aware that metadata operations (like [`metadata`] or [`symlink_metadata`]) may be affected by
25//! changes made by other processes.
26//! - Use atomic operations when possible (like [`File::create_new`] instead of checking existence then creating).
27//! - Keep file open for the duration of operations.

52/// An object providing access to an open file on the filesystem.
53///
54/// An instance of a `File` can be read and/or written depending on what options
55/// it was opened with. Files also implement [`Seek`] to alter the logical cursor
56/// that the file contains internally.
57///
58/// Files are automatically closed when they go out of scope.  Errors detected
59/// on closing are ignored by the implementation of `Drop`.  Use the method
60/// [`sync_all`] if these errors must be manually handled.
61///
62/// `File` does not buffer reads and writes. For efficiency, consider wrapping the
63/// file in a [`BufReader`] or [`BufWriter`] when performing many small [`read`]
64/// or [`write`] calls, unless unbuffered reads and writes are required.
65///
66/// # Examples
67///
68/// Creates a new file and write bytes to it (you can also use [`write`]):
69///
70/// ```no_run
71/// use std::fs::File;
72/// use std::io::prelude::*;
73///
74/// fn main() -> std::io::Result<()> {
75///     let mut file = File::create("foo.txt")?;
76///     file.write_all(b"Hello, world!")?;
77///     Ok(())
78/// }
79/// ```
80///
81/// Reads the contents of a file into a [`String`] (you can also use [`read`]):
82///
83/// ```no_run
84/// use std::fs::File;
85/// use std::io::prelude::*;
86///
87/// fn main() -> std::io::Result<()> {
88///     let mut file = File::open("foo.txt")?;
89///     let mut contents = String::new();
90///     file.read_to_string(&mut contents)?;
91///     assert_eq!(contents, "Hello, world!");
92///     Ok(())
93/// }
94/// ```
95///
96/// Using a buffered [`Read`]er:
97///
98/// ```no_run
99/// use std::fs::File;
100/// use std::io::BufReader;
101/// use std::io::prelude::*;
102///
103/// fn main() -> std::io::Result<()> {
104///     let file = File::open("foo.txt")?;
105///     let mut buf_reader = BufReader::new(file);
106///     let mut contents = String::new();
107///     buf_reader.read_to_string(&mut contents)?;
108///     assert_eq!(contents, "Hello, world!");
109///     Ok(())
110/// }
111/// ```
112///
113/// Note that, although read and write methods require a `&mut File`, because
114/// of the interfaces for [`Read`] and [`Write`], the holder of a `&File` can
115/// still modify the file, either through methods that take `&File` or by
116/// retrieving the underlying OS object and modifying the file that way.
117/// Additionally, many operating systems allow concurrent modification of files
118/// by different processes. Avoid assuming that holding a `&File` means that the
119/// file will not change.
120///
121/// # Platform-specific behavior
122///
123/// On Windows, the implementation of [`Read`] and [`Write`] traits for `File`
124/// perform synchronous I/O operations. Therefore the underlying file must not
125/// have been opened for asynchronous I/O (e.g. by using `FILE_FLAG_OVERLAPPED`).

3647/// * Linux, BSD-based platforms, QNX, NTO: `fchmodat` with `AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW`.
3648/// If that is not supported, we fall back to:
3649///   * Unix-based platforms with symlinks: `open` with `O_NOFOLLOW` followed by
3650///   [`fs::set_permissions`].
3651///   * Unix-based platforms without symlinks: `open` followed by [`fs::set_permissions`].
3652/// * Windows: `CreateFileW` with `FILE_FLAG_OPEN_REPARSE_POINT` followed
3653///   by `SetFileInformationByHandle`.
