[Bug 1010069] Re: bits/fcntl.h does not define AT_EMPTY_PATH

[Chris J Arges]

** Description changed:

+ [Impact]
+ A fix is needed for qemu-kvm to compile the virtio-9p-handle.c file.
+ 
+ [Development Fix]
+ This is fixed in quantal.
+ 
+ [Stable Fix]
+ A fix can be backported from quantal into precise.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ Try to compile the virtio-9p-handle.c file in qemu-kvm.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ This patch adds AT_SYMLINK_FOLLOW, AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT, AT_EMPTY_PATH, and AT_EACCESS to the proper fcntl.h files.
+

  This bug is not upstream, and the define is too new to appear in debian.
  Upstream, AT_EMPTY_PATH is defined in io/fcntl.h.  In debian,
  debian/patches/any/submitted-bits-fcntl_h-at.diff moves the *AT defines
  into the per-arch bits/fcntl.h files.  The ubuntu-specific merge of
  newer upstream updated the patch doing so to remove the AT_EMPTY_PATH
  with the rest of that blcok from io/fcntl.c, but does not add it to the
  bits/fcntl.h files.
  
  This is needed for qemu-kvm to compile the virtio-9p-handle.c file.
  
  A debdiff is attached which adds the definition.
