<p dir="auto" style="color: #3a383f; margin: 0px 0px 1rem;" align="initial">Unfortunately, POSIX has changed the definition of F_DUPFD. I do not know when without digging more than I can really do on my phone. But the 1997 fcntl.h page and Issue 7 (2018) page are different. Issue 7 matches your expectations. It would be helpful to know when it changed. I can follow up on that but it doesn't matter to the end actions needed.</p>
<p dir="auto" style="color: #3a383f; margin: 0px 0px 1rem;" align="initial">For score/objects, they are freed to the end of an allocation list so they will not be reused immediately. This was done to aid debug since there might be information in deleted objects. The same approach could be used here if the free iop set is a chain. That should increase the likelihood the fd is greater. But this needs a guarantee and that is going to require a different allocator for this one case.</p>
<p dir="auto" style="color: #3a383f; margin: 0px 0px 1rem;" align="initial">The impact on <em style="margin-top: 0px;">dup()</em> and _dup2() also needs to be considered.</p>
<p dir="auto" style="color: #3a383f; margin: 0px;" align="initial">This will impact user documentation and should be mentioned explicitly in the release notes.</p>
