* Add AT_EMPTY_PATH for several *at(2) syscallsKonstantin Belousov2021-04-151-1/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is currently allowed to fchownat(2), fchmodat(2), fchflagsat(2), utimensat(2), fstatat(2), and linkat(2). For linkat(2), PRIV_VFS_FHOPEN privilege is required to exercise the flag. It allows to link any open file.

* Document EINTEGRITY errors for many system calls.John Baldwin2020-03-301-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | EINTEGRITY was previously documented as a UFS-specific error for mount(2). This documents EINTEGRITY as a filesystem-independent error that may be reported by the backing store of a filesystem. While here, document EIO as a filesystem-independent error for both mount(2) and posix_fadvise(2). EIO was previously only documented for UFS for mount(2).
