From 09da082b07bbae1c11d9560c8502800039aebcea Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexey Gladkov Date: Tue, 11 Jul 2023 18:16:04 +0200 Subject: fs: Add fchmodat2() On the userspace side fchmodat(3) is implemented as a wrapper function which implements the POSIX-specified interface. This interface differs from the underlying kernel system call, which does not have a flags argument. Most implementations require procfs [1][2]. There doesn't appear to be a good userspace workaround for this issue but the implementation in the kernel is pretty straight-forward. The new fchmodat2() syscall allows to pass the AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW flag, unlike existing fchmodat.
