(*) fsconfig_set_path: A non-empty path is specified. The parameter must
be expecting a path object. value points to a NUL-terminated string
that is the path and aux is a file descriptor at which to start a
relative lookup or AT_FDCWD.
(*) fsconfig_set_path_empty: As fsconfig_set_path, but with AT_EMPTY_PATH
implied.
(*) fsconfig_set_fd: An open file descriptor is specified. value must
be NULL and aux indicates the file descriptor.Unless I'm rather confused, you have two or possibly three ways to pass in an open fd. Can you clarify what the difference is and/or remove all but one of them?
