NAME
fexecve - execute program specified via file descriptor
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/time.h>
I int fexecve(int fd , char *const argv [], char *const envp []);
DESCRIPTION
R fexecve ()
performs the same task as
execve(2),
with the difference that the file to be executed
is specified via a file descriptor,
R fd ,
rather than via a pathname.
RETURN VALUE

R fexecve ()
never returns.
On error, the function returns, with a result value of -1 is returned, and
errno
is set appropriately.
ERRORS
Errors are as for
execve(2),
with the following additions:
EINVAL
fd
is not a valid file descriptor, or
argv
is NULL, or
envp
is NULL.
ENOSYS
The
/proc
file system could not be accessed.
VERSIONS
R fexecve ()
is implemented since glibc 2.3.2.
