From bbeced26f6ce167ad93817ebe7180cd22ef33c86 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andrew Gregory Date: Thu, 26 Jun 2014 11:52:05 -0400 Subject: llstat: modify path in place This makes llstat's signature differ from lstat's, but we never actually use it on a const string and this saves a large number of strdup's. This also allows stripping multiple trailing slashes and corrects a bug where calling llstat on "/" would result in calling lstat on an empty string.
