## DESCRIPTION

`gfs_mkdir()` attempts to create a directory named `gfarm_url`.

`mode` speficies the permissions to use. It is modified by the process's `umask` in the usual way: the permissions of the created file are (`mode` & ~umask).

  The function terminated successfully.

`GFARM_ERR_NOT_A_DIRECTORY`
