Subject: Re: [PATCH 0/2] statx NULL path support
Date: Sun, 30 Jun 2024 21:38:25 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <[email protected]> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <[email protected]>

Maybe it's time and declarate the idea to deprecate stat a failure
and we just add it back to the new generic ABI syscalls?

The idea to get rid of layers of backwards compatibility was a good one
and mostly succeeded, but having to deal with not only remapping
the structure but also the empty path issues sounds like it is worth
to just add these pretty trivial system calls back and make everyones
life easier?
