It's highly annoying, but not a deal-breaker. Nix already has a few functions that do that. Just grep Nix's codebase for |

Adds support for openat2 on linux. Includes a new ResolveFlag struct to pass resolve flags, which is passed directly to the new fcntl::openat2 function. libc::open_how isn't exposed here, which may mean this API needs to change if there's an update to openat2 to extend open_how with new fields. Fixes nix-rust#1400.

On Linux, the recent
openat2()system call provides a broader API surface thanopenat(). However, it's not yet wrapped in GLIBC, so it would be necessary to make the system call directly. Would this be a problem in terms of maintainability and portability, or is this something that the Nix crate is already used to dealing with?The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
