# Commit f4f2f3402b2f4985d69ffc0d46f845d05fd0b60f # Date 2024-05-07 15:18:36 +0100 # Author Andrew Cooper # Committer Andrew Cooper tools/libxs: Open /dev/xen/xenbus fds as O_CLOEXEC The header description for xs_open() goes as far as to suggest that the fd is O_CLOEXEC, but it isn't actually. `xl devd` has been observed leaking /dev/xen/xenbus into children.
