+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.BR mkstemp ()
+function generates a unique temporary filename from
+.IR template ,
+creates and opens the file,
+and returns an open file descriptor for the file.
+.PP
+The last six characters of
+.I template
+must be "XXXXXX" and these are replaced with a string that makes the
+filename unique.
+Since it will be modified,
+.I template
+must not be a string constant, but should be declared as a character array.
+.PP
+The file is created with
+permissions 0600, that is, read plus write for owner only.
+The returned file descriptor provides both read and write access to the file.
+The file is opened with the
+.BR open (2)
+.B O_EXCL
+flag, guaranteeing that the caller is the process that creates the file.
+.PP
+The
+.BR mkostemp ()
+function is like
+.BR mkstemp (),
+with the difference that the following bits\[em]with the same meaning as for
+.BR open (2)\[em]may
+be specified in
+.IR flags :
+.BR O_APPEND ,
+.BR O_CLOEXEC ,
+and
+.BR O_SYNC .
+Note that when creating the file,
+.BR mkostemp ()
+includes the values
+.BR O_RDWR ,
+.BR O_CREAT ,
+and
+.B O_EXCL
+in the
+.I flags
+argument given to
+.BR open (2);
+including these values in the
+.I flags
+argument given to
+.BR mkostemp ()
+is unnecessary, and produces errors on some
+.\" Reportedly, FreeBSD
+systems.
+.PP
+The
+.BR mkstemps ()
+function is like
+.BR mkstemp (),
+except that the string in
+.I template
+contains a suffix of
+.I suffixlen
+characters.
+Thus,
+.I template
+is of the form
+.IR "prefixXXXXXXsuffix" ,
+and the string XXXXXX is modified as for
+.BR mkstemp ().
+.PP
+The
+.BR mkostemps ()
+function is to
+.BR mkstemps ()
+as
+.BR mkostemp ()
+is to
+.BR mkstemp ().
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+On success, these functions return the file descriptor
+of the temporary file.
+On error, \-1 is returned, and
+.I errno
+is set to indicate the error.
+.SH ERRORS
+.TP
+.B EEXIST
+Could not create a unique temporary filename.
+Now the contents of \fItemplate\fP are undefined.
+.TP
+.B EINVAL
+For
+.BR mkstemp ()
+and
+.BR mkostemp ():
+The last six characters of \fItemplate\fP were not XXXXXX;
+now \fItemplate\fP is unchanged.
+.IP
+For
+.BR mkstemps ()
+and
+.BR mkostemps ():
+.I template
+is less than
+.I "(6 + suffixlen)"
+characters long, or the last 6 characters before the suffix in
+.I template
+were not XXXXXX.
+.PP
+These functions may also fail with any of the errors described for
+.BR open (2).
+.SH ATTRIBUTES

+.SH HISTORY
+.TP
+.BR mkstemp ()
+4.3BSD, POSIX.1-2001.

+.BR mkostemp ()
+glibc 2.7.
+.TP
+.BR mkostemps ()
+glibc 2.11.
+.PP
+In glibc versions 2.06 and earlier, the file is created with permissions 0666,
+that is, read and write for all users.
+This old behavior may be
+a security risk, especially since other UNIX flavors use 0600,
+and somebody might overlook this detail when porting programs.
+POSIX.1-2008 adds a requirement that the file be created with mode 0600.
+.PP
+More generally, the POSIX specification of
+.BR mkstemp ()
+does not say anything
+about file modes, so the application should make sure its
+file mode creation mask (see
+.BR umask (2))
+is set appropriately before calling
+.BR mkstemp ()
+(and
+.BR mkostemp ()).
