[PATCH 25/79] do_last: regularize the logics around following symlinks

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Al Viro <viro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

With LOOKUP_FOLLOW we unlazy and return 1; without it we either
fail with ELOOP or, for O_PATH opens, succeed.  No need to mix
those cases...
