               file,  and is not zero; or the owner or group were
               specified incorrectly.

       EROFS   The named file resides on a read-only file system.

       EFAULT  path points outside your accessible address space.

               path is too long.

       ENOENT  The file does not exist.

       ENOMEM  Insufficient kernel memory was available.

       ENOTDIR A component of the path prefix is not a directory.

       EACCES  Search  permission is denied on a component of the
               path prefix.

       ELOOP   path contains a circular reference  (i.e.,  via  a
               symbolic link)
