Description

@tuxoko

linux-3.15 merge window has been closed. It introduced a new syscall renameat2 which does cross rename between two files atomically. This is potentially quite useful, however it needs filesystem support.

I think we might want to implement it, so I open up this feature request issue.
I might try to dig into this myself, however probably not very soon. So feel free to comment if you'd like to pick it up.

Thanks
