…tatat The Linux kernel is technically a personal project of Linus, who hates "statx superseds fstat and newfstatat" with a passion. Thus in Linux the superseding has never really happened.

Unfortunately after a careful review I found we had really not made any progress
(except liblol no longer needs to inject a kernel module for1. Thus just update the info for Linux 6.11 and upcoming Glibc-2.41 and fix some inaccurate info.newfstatatandfstat)My plan is adjust Glibc to use
AT_EMPTY_PATH+nullptrand tell all the stupidcomp sandboxes to allow it (checkingnullptris possible while checking""is not) instead, doing so will also help all 32-bit platforms with a high--enable-kernelset (like BLFS, where we have to disable sandbox for Firefox on 32-bit x86).Footnotes
Even this isn't true, the liblol kernel module does more than adding them. ↩
