Subject: [PATCH liburing] man/io_uring_enter.2: update notes about direct open/accept
Date: Tue, 14 Sep 2021 17:00:14 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <b988dc36ebe655dc5b67e02c7916bd1c68c27421.1631635202.git.asml.silence@gmail.com> (raw)
Reflect recent changes in the man, i.e. direct open/accept now would try
to remove a file from the fixed file table if the slot they target is
already taken.
