[PATCH v2 038/113] fs: implement O_CHROOT

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

 



For use by EFI file system path resolution, implement an O_CHROOT
flag that will map / to the root of the file system the dirfd points
to instead of the VFS root. If the dirfd points to a mountpoint, it will
be followed to the file system inside. This is similar to Linux openat2
with RESOLVE_IN_ROOT.

Without this, the EFI protocol would have to do path sanitization itself
before passing paths to the barebox VFS implementation.
