Sergey Bugaev 65392c8478 hurd: Implement O_TMPFILE
This is a flag that causes open () to create a new, unnamed file in the
same filesystem as the given directory. The file descriptor can be
simply used in the creating process as a temporary file, or shared with
children processes via fork (), or sent over a Unix socket. The file can
be left anonymous, in which case it will be deleted from the backing
file system once all copies of the file descriptor are closed, or given
a permanent name with a linkat () call, such as the following:

int fd = open ("/tmp", O_TMPFILE | O_RDWR, 0700);
/* Do something with the file... */
linkat (fd, "", AT_FDCWD, "/tmp/filename", AT_EMPTY_PATH);

In between creating the file and linking it to the file system, it is
possible to set the file content, mode, ownership, author, and other
attributes, so that the file visibly appears in the file system (perhaps
replacing another file) atomically, with all of its attributes already
set up.

The Hurd support for O_TMPFILE directly exposes the dir_mkfile RPC to
user programs. Previously, dir_mkfile was used by glibc internally, in
particular for implementing tmpfile (), but not exposed to user programs
through a Unix-level API.

O_TMPFILE was initially introduced by Linux. This implementation is
intended to be compatible with the Linux implementation, except that the
O_EXCL flag is not given the special meaning when used together with
O_TMPFILE, unlike on Linux.

This directory contains the sources of the GNU C Library.
See the file "version.h" for what release version you have.

The GNU C Library is the standard system C library for all GNU systems,
and is an important part of what makes up a GNU system.  It provides the
system API for all programs written in C and C-compatible languages such
as C++ and Objective C; the runtime facilities of other programming
languages use the C library to access the underlying operating system.

In GNU/Linux systems, the C library works with the Linux kernel to
implement the operating system behavior seen by user applications.
In GNU/Hurd systems, it works with a microkernel and Hurd servers.

The GNU C Library implements much of the POSIX.1 functionality in the
GNU/Hurd system, using configurations i[4567]86-*-gnu.

When working with Linux kernels, this version of the GNU C Library
requires Linux kernel version 3.2 or later.

Also note that the shared version of the libgcc_s library must be
installed for the pthread library to work correctly.

The GNU C Library supports these configurations for using Linux kernels:

	aarch64*-*-linux-gnu
	alpha*-*-linux-gnu
	arc*-*-linux-gnu
	arm-*-linux-gnueabi
	csky-*-linux-gnuabiv2

If you are interested in doing a port, please contact the glibc
maintainers; see https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/ for more
information.

See the file INSTALL to find out how to configure, build, and install
the GNU C Library.  You might also consider reading the WWW pages for
the C library at https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/.

The GNU C Library is (almost) completely documented by the Texinfo manual
found in the `manual/' subdirectory.  The manual is still being updated
and contains some known errors and omissions; we regret that we do not
have the resources to work on the manual as much as we would like.  For
corrections to the manual, please file a bug in the `manual' component,
following the bug-reporting instructions below.  Please be sure to check
the manual in the current development sources to see if your problem has
already been corrected.

Please see https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/bugs.html for bug reporting
information.  We are now using the Bugzilla system to track all bug reports.
This web page gives detailed information on how to report bugs properly.

The GNU C Library is free software.  See the file COPYING.LIB for copying
conditions, and LICENSES for notices about a few contributions that require
these additional notices to be distributed.  License copyright years may be
listed using range notation, e.g., 1996-2015, indicating that every year in
the range, inclusive, is a copyrightable year that would otherwise be listed
individually.
