PR_UNLINK(3PROC) Process Control Library Functions PR_UNLINK(3PROC)

pr_unlinkinject unlink system call into victim process

Process Control Library (libproc, -lproc)

#include <libproc.h>

int
pr_unlink(struct ps_prochandle *P, const char *path);

The () function injects the unlink(2) system call into the target process P by means of the agent LWP. If the process handle P is the value NULL then this will be equivalent to calling unlink(2) on the currently running process.

The () function only works on active processes. Process handles that correspond to core files, zombie processes, or ELF objects do not support system call injection.

Upon successful completion, the pr_unlink() function's return value is that described in unlink(2). Otherwise, is returned and is set to ENOSYS to indicate that the system call could not be injected.

For the full list of errors see the ERRORS section in unlink(2).

The pr_unlink() function will fail if:

An error occurred while trying to invoke the agent LWP and inject a system call in the process handle P or the process handle P does not support system call injection.

See in libproc(3LIB).
