Linux kernel source tree
It claims the issue is only relevant for shared descriptor tables which is of no concern for POSIX (but then is POSIX of concern to anyone today?), which I presume predates standarized threading. The comment also mentions the following systems: - OpenBSD installing a larval file -- they moved away from it, file is installed late and EBUSY is returned on conflict - FreeBSD returning EBADF -- reworked to install the file early like OpenBSD used to do - NetBSD "deadlocks in amusing ways" -- their solution looks Solaris-inspired (not a compliment) and I would not be particularly surprised if it indeed deadlocked, in amusing ways or otherwise I don't believe mentioning any of these adds anything and the statement about the issue not being POSIX-relevant is outdated. dup2 description in POSIX still does not mention the problem. Just shorten the comment and be done with it.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
