The getcwd() implementation in the Linux module is not inherently Linux specific; but it does implement the name-finding without using the name cache, by scanning directories. The patch merges the name cache and non-name-cache based implementations of getcwd() to address the PRs which Marc cited in his earlier message. You seem to be concerned about plagiarism. Could you clarify or explain your concerns? BMS
