Hi Miklos, > POSIX defines faccessat() as having a fourth "flags" argument, while the > linux syscall doesn't have it. Glibc tries to emulate AT_EACCESS and > AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW, but AT_EACCESS emulation is broken. > > Add a new faccessat(2) syscall with the added flags argument and implement > both flags. > > The value of AT_EACCESS is defined in glibc headers to be the same as > AT_REMOVEDIR. Use this value for the kernel interface as well, together > with the explanatory comment. It would be nice if resolv_flags would also be passed in addition to the at flags. See:https://lore.kernel.org/linux-api/CAHk-=wiaL6zznNtCHKg6+MJuCqDxO=yVfms3qR9A0czjKuSSiA@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ We should avoid expecting yet another syscall in near future. metze
