+NAME
+ mkdir - make directories
+
+SYNOPSIS
+ mkdir [-p][-m mode] dir...
+
+DESCRIPTION
+ The mkdir utility shall create the directories specified
+ by the operands, in the order specified.
+
+ For each dir operand, the mkdir utility shall perform
+ actions equivalent to the mkdir() function defined in
+ the System Interfaces volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001,
+ called with the following arguments:
+
+ The dir operand is used as the path argument.
+
+ The value of the bitwise-inclusive OR of S_IRWXU,
+ S_IRWXG, and S_IRWXO is used as the mode argument. (If
+ the -m option is specified, the mode option-argument
+ overrides this default.)
+
+OPTIONS
+ The mkdir utility shall conform to the Base Definitions
+ volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, Section 12.2, Utility
+ Syntax Guidelines.
+
+ The following options shall be supported:
+
+ -m mode
+ Set the file permission bits of the newly-created
+ directory to the specified mode value. The mode
+ option-argument shall be the same as the mode op-
+ erand defined for the chmod utility. In the sym-
+ bolic_mode strings, the op characters '+' and '-'
+ shall be interpreted relative to an assumed ini-
+ tial mode of a= rwx; '+' shall add permissions to
+ the default mode, '-' shall delete permissions
+ from the default mode.
+
+ -p Create any missing intermediate pathname compo-
+ nents.
+
+ For each dir operand that does not name an existing
+ directory, effects equivalent to those caused by the
+ following command shall occur:
+
+
+ mkdir -p -m $(umask -S),u+wx $(dirname dir) &&
+ mkdir [-m mode] dir
+
+ where the -m mode option represents that option supplied
+ to the original invocation of mkdir, if any.
+
+ Each dir operand that names an existing directory shall
+ be ignored without error.
+
+
+OPERANDS
+ The following operand shall be supported:
+
+ dir A pathname of a directory to be created.
+
+
+STDIN
+ Not used.
+
+INPUT FILES
+ None.
+
+ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
+ The following environment variables shall affect the
+ execution of mkdir:
+
+ LANG Provide a default value for the internationaliza-
+ tion variables that are unset or null. (See the
+ Base Definitions volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001,
+ Section 8.2, Internationalization Variables for
+ the precedence of internationalization variables
+ used to determine the values of locale cate-
+ gories.)
+
+ LC_ALL If set to a non-empty string value, override the
+ values of all the other internationalization
+ variables.
+
+ LC_CTYPE
+ Determine the locale for the interpretation of
+ sequences of bytes of text data as characters
+ (for example, single-byte as opposed to multi-
+ byte characters in arguments).
+
+ LC_MESSAGES
+ Determine the locale that should be used to
+ affect the format and contents of diagnostic mes-
+ sages written to standard error.
+
+ NLSPATH
+ Determine the location of message catalogs for
+ the processing of LC_MESSAGES .
+
+
+ASYNCHRONOUS EVENTS
+ Default.
+
+STDOUT
+ Not used.
+
+STDERR
+ The standard error shall be used only for diagnostic
+ messages.
+
+OUTPUT FILES
+ None.
+
+EXTENDED DESCRIPTION
+ None.
+
+EXIT STATUS
+ The following exit values shall be returned:
+
+ 0 All the specified directories were created suc-
+ cessfully or the -p option was specified and all
+ the specified directories now exist.
+
+ >0 An error occurred.
+
+
+CONSEQUENCES OF ERRORS
+ Default.
+
+ The following sections are informative.
+
+APPLICATION USAGE
+ The default file mode for directories is a= rwx (777 on
+ most systems) with selected permissions removed in
+ accordance with the file mode creation mask. For inter-
+ mediate pathname components created by mkdir, the mode
+ is the default modified by u+ wx so that the subdirecto-
+ ries 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 chmod.
+
+ Note that some of the requested directories may have
+ been created even if an error occurs.
+
+EXAMPLES
+ None.
+
+RATIONALE
+ The System V -m option was included to control the file
+ mode.
+
+ The System V -p option was included to create any needed
+ intermediate directories and to complement the function-
+ ality provided by rmdir for removing directories in the
+ path prefix as they become empty. Because no error is
+ produced if any path component already exists, the -p
+ option is also useful to ensure that a particular direc-
+ tory exists.
+
+ The functionality of mkdir is described substantially
+ through a reference to the mkdir() function in the Sys-
+ tem Interfaces volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001. For exam-
+ ple, by default, the mode of the directory is affected
+ by the file mode creation mask in accordance with the
+ specified behavior of the mkdir() function. In this way,
+ there is less duplication of effort required for
+ describing details of the directory creation.
+
+FUTURE DIRECTIONS
+ None.
