Following Linux, allow the pathname argument to be empty if the AT_EMPTY_PATH is specified. In this case the dirfd argument can refer to any type of file, not just a directory, and the call operates on that file. In particular, dirfd can refer to a symlink that was opened with O_PATH and O_NOFOLLOW. --- winsup/cygwin/syscalls.cc | 19 ++++++++++++++++--- 1 file changed, 16 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-)
