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.

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

3301/// ## Symlinks
3302/// On UNIX-like systems, this function will update the permission bits
3303/// of the file pointed to by the symlink.
3304///
3305/// Note that this behavior can lead to privilege escalation vulnerabilities,

3307/// cause the permissions of another file or directory to be modified.

3309/// For this reason, using this function with symlinks should be avoided.
3310/// When possible, permissions should be set at creation time instead.
3311///
3312/// # Rationale
3313/// POSIX does not specify an `lchmod` function,
3314/// and symlinks can be followed regardless of what permission bits are set.
3315///
3316/// # Errors
3317///
3318/// This function will return an error in the following situations, but is not
3319/// limited to just these cases:
3320///
3321/// * `path` does not exist.
3322/// * The user lacks the permission to change attributes of the file.
