    Certification Program The Open Brand certification program
    Test Suite VSX4 version 4.6.4
    Test Identification POSIX.os/files/rename 22
    Specification Base Definitions Issue 6
    Problem Summary The test should allow EXDEV as an alternative errno value
    Problem Text The test calls rename("rename-t.22a", "rename-t.22b") after mounting a
    file system on rename-t.22b and expects the call to fail with errno EBUSY.

    However, since rename-t.22a and rename-t.22b are on different file
    systems, the EXDEV condition also exists. A system which does not
    support cross-filesystem renaming might detect the EXDEV condition first
    and set errno to EXDEV even though it does detect EBUSY when an attempt
    is made to remove a busy directory with rmdir().

    Since the conditions for the test are that the second argument is a
    mount point, the EXDEV condition cannot be avoided (except by placing
    the first directory below the second, but that would also be an
    ENOTEMPTY condition). The test should be modified to allow errno to be
    set to either EBUSY or EXDEV.
    Test Output /tset/POSIX.os/files/rename/T.rename 22 Failed

    Test Information:
    rename("rename-t.22a", "rename-t.22b") did not give correct results
    ERRNO VALUES: expected: 16 (EBUSY), observed: 18 (EXDEV)
