Unix Network Programming Episode 98

#include "unp.h"

int my_open(const char *, int);

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
    int fd, n;
    char buff[BUFFSIZE];

    if(argc!=2)
        err_quit("usage: mycat <pathname>");
    
    if((fd=my_open(argv[1],O_RDONLY))<0)
        err_sys("cannot open %s", argv[1]);
    
    while((n=Read(fd, buff, BUFFSIZE))>0)
        Write(STDOUT_FILENO, buff, n);

mycat program: copies a file to standard output

#include "unp.h"

int my_open(const char *, int);

int my_open(const char *pathname, int mode)
{
    int fd, sockfd[2], status;
    pid_t childpid;
    char c, argsockfd[10], argmode[10];

    Socketpair(AF_LOCAL, SOCK_STREAM, 0, sockfd);

    if((childpid=Fork())==0)
    {
        Close(sockfd[0]);
        snprintf(argsockfd, sizeof(argsockfd),"%d", sockfd[1]);
        snprintf(argmode, sizeof(argmode), "%d", mode);
        execl("./openfile", "openfile", argsockfd, pathname, argmode, (char *)NULL);
        err_sys("execl error");
    }

    Close(sockfd[1]);

    Waitpid(childpid, &status, 0);
    if(WIFEXITED(status)==0)
        err_quit("child did not terminate");
    if((status=WEXITSTATUS(status))==0)
        Read_fd(sockfd[0], &c, 1, &fd);
    else
    {
        errno=status;
        fd=-1;
    }

    Close(sockfd[0]);
    
    return fd;
}

my_open function: opens a file and returns a descriptor
