Hi Alyssa!

Skimming open(2), I was surprised not to see tmpfs mentioned as a
filesystem supported by O_TMPFILE.
If I'm understanding correctly (I'm very possibly not!), tmpfs is a
filesystem built on shmem, so I think it's more correct (and probably
much more widely understandable) to refer to tmpfs here.
This is my understanding too. See
https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-man/msg13703.html for previous
discussion.
(Michael was going to fix rename.2 back then, but something went wrong.)
