For intermediate pathname components +created by +.IR mkdir , +the mode is the default modified by +.IR u +\c +.IR wx +so that the subdirectories can always be created regardless of the file +mode creation mask; if different ultimate permissions are desired for +the intermediate directories, they can be changed afterwards with +.IR chmod . +.P +Note that some of the requested directories may have been created even +if an error occurs. +.SH EXAMPLES +None. +.SH RATIONALE +The System V +.BR \-m +option was included to control the file mode. +.P +The System V +.BR \-p +option was included to create any needed intermediate directories and +to complement the functionality provided by +.IR rmdir +for removing directories in the path prefix as they become empty. +Because no error is produced if any path component already exists, the +.BR \-p +option is also useful to ensure that a particular directory exists. +.P +The functionality of +.IR mkdir +is described substantially through a reference to the +\fImkdir\fR() +function in the System Interfaces volume of POSIX.1\(hy2017. For example, by default, the mode of the +directory is affected by the file mode creation mask in accordance with +the specified behavior of the +\fImkdir\fR() +function. In this way, there is less duplication of effort required for +describing details of the directory creation. +.SH "FUTURE DIRECTIONS" +None. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.IR "\fIchmod\fR\^", +.IR "\fIrm\fR\^", +.IR "\fIrmdir\fR\^", +.IR "\fIumask\fR\^" +.P +The Base Definitions volume of POSIX.1\(hy2017, +.IR "Chapter 8" ", " "Environment Variables", +.IR "Section 12.2" ", " "Utility Syntax Guidelines" +.P +The System Interfaces volume of POSIX.1\(hy2017, +.IR "\fImkdir\fR\^(\|)", +.IR "\fIumask\fR\^(\|)" +.\" +.SH COPYRIGHT +Portions of this text are reprinted and reproduced in electronic form +from IEEE Std 1003.1-2017, Standard for Information Technology +-- Portable Operating System Interface (POSIX), The Open Group Base +Specifications Issue 7, 2018 Edition, +Copyright (C) 2018 by the Institute of +Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc and The Open Group. +In the event of any discrepancy between this version and the original IEEE and +The Open Group Standard, the original IEEE and The Open Group Standard +is the referee document.
