170 * (which link(2) would've refused to do) *AND* be a deep
171 * fucking magic, making the target busy from rmdir POV.
172 * symlink(2) is nothing of that sort, and the locking it
173 * gets matches the normal symlink(2) semantics. Without
174 * attempts to resolve the target (which might very well
175 * not even exist yet) done prior to locking the parent
176 * directory. This perversion, OTOH, needs to resolve
177 * the target, which would lead to obvious deadlocks if
178 * attempted with any directories locked.
180 * Unfortunately, that garbage is userland ABI and we should've
181 * said "no" back in 2005. Too late now, so we get to
182 * play very ugly games with locking.
184 * Try *ANYTHING* of that sort in new code, and you will
185 * really regret it. Just ask yourself - what could a BOFH
186 * do to me and do I want to find it out first-hand?
