These functions, openat etc, have been discussed on numerous\noccasions. They are needed to implement race-free filesystem traversal,\nthey are necessary to implement a virtual per-thread current working\ndirectory (think multi-threaded backup software), etc.\n\nWe have in glibc today implementations of the interfaces which use the\n/proc/self/fd magic. But this code is rather expensive. Here are some\nresults (similar to what Jim Meyering posted before).\n\nThe test creates a deep directory hierarchy on a tmpfs filesystem. Then\nrm -fr is used to remove all directories. Without syscall support I get\nthis:\n\nreal 0m31.921s\nuser 0m0.688s\nsys 0m31.234s\n\nWith syscall support the results are much better:\n\nreal 0m20.699s\nuser 0m0.536s\nsys 0m20.149s\n\nThe interfaces are for obvious reasons currently not much used. But they\u0027ll\nbe used. coreutils (and Jeff\u0027s posixutils) are already using them.\nFurthermore, code like ftw/fts in libc (maybe even glob) will also start using\nthem.
