read-only, and if :const:`ST_NOSUID` is set, the semantics of
setuid/setgid bits are disabled or not supported.
+ Additional module-level constants are defined for GNU/glibc based systems.
+ These are :const:`ST_NODEV` (disallow access to device special files),
+ :const:`ST_NOEXEC` (disallow program execution), :const:`ST_SYNCHRONOUS`
+ (writes are synced at once), :const:`ST_MANDLOCK` (allow mandatory locks on an FS),
+ :const:`ST_WRITE` (write on file/directory/symlink), :const:`ST_APPEND`
+ (append-only file), :const:`ST_IMMUTABLE` (immutable file), :const:`ST_NOATIME`
+ (do not update access times), :const:`ST_NODIRATIME` (do not update directory access
+ times), :const:`ST_RELATIME` (update atime relative to mtime/ctime).

This function can support :ref:`specifying a file descriptor <path_fd>`.
