Note to myself (and others that might be interested in the O(1)) version): we can't simply call openat(dirfd, "..", O_RDONLY) to re-open the current directory's file descriptor after having walked a into one of its subdirectories because if this subdirectory is actually a link, we'll open the parent directory of the target directory, instead of the current (toppath) directory. OTOH, if the user passes followlinks=True, then we don't have to bother with openat() and friends in which case we don't have to bother passing FDs between calls to fwalk(). ---------- resolution: -> fixed stage: -> committed/rejected status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13734> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
