Source: #9 comment 812

Wrap the mutating sys/stat.h surface separately from metadata reads:

  • mkdir, mkdirat
  • chmod, fchmod, fchmodat
  • mknod, mknodat

umask is explicitly out of scope: it returns the previous mask and has no failure/status result, so it does not need an akerror wrapper.

Files: src/, include/akstdlib.h, tests/
