//! Utilities for working with `/proc`, where Linux's `procfs` is typically
//! mounted.
//!
//! `/proc` serves as an adjunct to Linux's main syscall surface area,
//! providing additional features with an awkward interface.
//!
//! This module does a considerable amount of work to determine whether `/proc`
//! is mounted, with actual `procfs`, and without any additional mount points
//! on top of the paths we open.
//!
//! Why all the effort to detect bind mount points? People are doing all kinds
//! of things with Linux containers these days, with many different privilege
//! schemes, and we want to avoid making any unnecessary assumptions. Rustix
//! and its users will sometimes use procfs *implicitly* (when Linux gives them
//! no better options), in ways that aren't obvious from their public APIs.
//! These filesystem accesses might not be visible to someone auditing the main
//! code of an application for places which may be influenced by the filesystem
//! namespace. So with the checking here, they may fail, but they won't be able
//! to succeed with bogus results.
