void explain_creat_or_die(const char *pathname, int mode);
DESCRIPTION
The explain_creat_or_die function
is used to call the creat(2) system
call. On failure an explanation will be
printed to stderr,
obtained from explain_creat(3),
and then the process terminates
by calling exit(EXIT_FAILURE).
This function is intended to be used in a fashion
similar to the following example:
explain_creat_or_die(pathname, mode);
pathname
The pathname, exactly as to be passed to the creat(2) system call.
mode
The mode, exactly as to be passed to the creat(2) system call.
Returns:
This function only returns on success.
On failure, prints an explanation and exits.
