Hi, Just a heads up- memfd_create(3) landed in head today (__FreeBSD_version 1300048); at least graphics/mesa-dri has relevant patches, and I seem to recall others. My test builds didn't seem to raise any problems, and the patches are all to !HAVE_MEMFD_CREATE blocks. autoconf should be doing the right thing here and picking up that it exists now. We don't support MFD_HUGETLB, but I didn't see any usage in mesa-dri or any other ports that used memfd_create. Please send any/all memfd_create related breakage my direction... this should be an improvement in some ways, as we can now properly support some of the cases that wanted !CLOEXEC but weren't getting it with how we emulated memfd_create, though I suspect there's no practical impact. Thanks, Kyle Evans
