-.TH MKFIFO 1M "Jun 24, 2020"
-.SH NAME
-mkfifo \- make FIFO special file
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.nf
-\fB/usr/bin/mkfifo\fR [\fB-m\fR \fImode\fR] \fIfile\fR...
-.fi
-
-.SS "ksh93"
-.nf
-mkfifo [ \fIoptions\fR ] \fIfile\fR...
-.fi
-
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.SS "/usr/bin/mkfifo"
-The \fBmkfifo\fR utility creates the \fBFIFO\fR special files named by its
-argument list. The arguments are taken sequentially, in the order specified;
-and each \fBFIFO\fR special file is either created completely or, in the case
-of an error or signal, not created at all.
-.sp
-.LP
-If errors are encountered in creating one of the special files, \fBmkfifo\fR
-writes a diagnostic message to standard error and continues with the
-remaining arguments, if any.
-.sp
-.LP
-The \fBmkfifo\fR utility calls the library routine \fBmkfifo\fR(3C), with a
-\fIpath\fR argument equivalent to the \fIfile\fR argument from the command line,
-and \fImode\fR is set to the equivalent of \fBa=rw\fR, modified by the current
-value of the file mode creation mask \fBumask\fR(1).
-.SS "ksh93"
-The \fBmkfifo\fR utility creates one or more \fBFIFO\fRs. By default, the mode
-of the created FIFO is \fBa=rw\fR minus the bits set in \fBumask\fR(1).
-.SH OPTIONS
-.SS "/usr/bin/mkfifo"
-The following option is supported for \fB/usr/bin/mkfifo\fR:
-.sp
-.ne 2
-.na
-\fB\fB-m\fR \fImode\fR\fR
-.ad
-.RS 11n
-Set the file permission bits of the newly-created \fBFIFO\fR to the specified
-\fImode\fR value. The \fImode\fR option-argument will be the same as the
-\fImode\fR operand defined for the \fBchmod\fR(1) command. For a
-symbolic mode option-argument, the \fIop\fR characters \fB+\fR and \fB\(mi\fR
-will be interpreted relative to an assumed initial mode of \fBa=rw\fR.
-.RE
-
-.SS "ksh93"
-The following option is supported for \fBksh93\fR:
-.sp
-.ne 2
-.na
-\fB\fB-m\fR \fImode\fR\fR
-.ad
-.br
-.na
-\fB\fB--mode=\fR\fImode\fR\fR
-.ad
-.RS 15n
-Set the mode of the created FIFO to \fImode\fR. The \fImode\fR option-argument
-is a symbolic or octal mode as in \fBchmod\fR(1). Relative modes assume an
-initial mode of \fBa=rw\fR.
-.RE
-
-.SH OPERANDS
-The following operand is supported:
-.sp
-.ne 2
-.na
-\fB\fIfile\fR\fR
-.ad
-.RS 8n
-A path name of the \fBFIFO\fR special file to be created.
-.RE
-
-.SH USAGE
-See \fBlargefile\fR(5) for the description of the behavior of \fBmkfifo\fR when
-encountering files greater than or equal to 2 Gbyte ( 2^31 bytes).
-.SH ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
-See \fBenviron\fR(5) for descriptions of the following environment variables
-that affect the execution of \fBmkfifo\fR: \fBLANG\fR, \fBLC_ALL\fR,
-\fBLC_CTYPE\fR, \fBLC_MESSAGES\fR, and \fBNLSPATH\fR.
-.SH EXIT STATUS
-The following exit values are returned:
-.sp
-.ne 2
-.na
-\fB\fB0\fR\fR
-.ad
-.RS 6n
-All the specified \fBFIFO\fR special files were created successfully.
-.RE
-
-.sp
-.ne 2
-.na
-\fB\fB>0\fR\fR
-.ad
-.RS 6n
-An error occurred.
