From c8ffd8bcdd28296a198f237cc595148a8d4adfbe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Miklos Szeredi Date: Thu, 14 May 2020 16:44:25 +0200 Subject: vfs: add faccessat2 syscall 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. Also add AT_EMPTY_PATH support, which is not documented by POSIX, but can be useful and is trivial to implement.
