.SS Glibc notes
|
||||||
|
On older kernels where
|
||||||
|
.BR mkdirat ()
|
||||||
|
is unavailable, the glibc wrapper function falls back to the use of
|
||||||
|
.BR mkdir ().
|
||||||
|
When
|
||||||
|
.I pathname
|
||||||
|
is a relative pathname,
|
||||||
|
glibc constructs a pathname based on the symbolic link in
|
||||||
|
.IR /proc/self/fd
|
||||||
|
that corresponds to the
|
||||||
|
.IR dirfd
|
||||||
|
argument.
