Issue #2543 has been updated by jorisgio.


You're right, linux returns EBUSY too. I have check the pathname ending by a dot, it returnds EINVAL, hence it's correct. (By ending by a dot, I mean foo/bar/.)

rmdir can return EINVAL if the directory is a mount point :

See sys/kern/vfs_syscalls.c:3997

        /*
         * Do not allow directories representing mount points to be
         * deleted, even if empty.  Check write perms on mount point
         * in case the vnode is aliased (aka nullfs).
         */
        if (nd->nl_nch.ncp->nc_flag & (NCF_ISMOUNTPT))
                return (EINVAL);
