		1461	=head2 IO::AIO::WD - multiple working directories
		1462
		1463	Your process only has one current working directory, which is used by all
		1464	threads. This makes it hard to use relative paths (some other component
		1465	could call C<chdir> at any time, and it is hard to control when the path
		1466	will be used by IO::AIO).
		1467
		1468	One solution for this is to always use absolute paths. This usually works,
		1469	but can be quite slow (the kernel has to walk the whole path on every
		1470	access), and can also be a hassle to implement.
		1471
		1472	Newer POSIX systems have a number of functions (openat, fdopendir,
		1473	futimensat and so on) that make it possible to specify working directories
		1474	per operation.
		1475
		1476	For portability, and because the clowns who "designed", or shall I write,
		1477	perpetrated this new interface were obviously half-drunk, this abstraction
		1478	cannot be perfect, though.
		1479
		1480	IO::AIO allows you to convert directory paths into a so-called IO::AIO::WD
		1481	object. This object stores the canonicalised, absolute version of the
		1482	path, and on systems that allow it, also a directory file descriptor.
		1483
		1484	Everywhere where a pathname is accepted by IO::AIO (e.g. in C<aio_stat>
		1485	or C<aio_unlink>), one can specify an array reference with an IO::AIO::WD
		1486	object and a pathname instead (or the IO::AIO::WD object alone, which
		1487	gets interpreted as C<[$wd, "."]>). If the pathname is absolute, the
		1488	IO::AIO::WD object is ignored, otherwise the pathname is resolved relative
		1489	to that IO::AIO::WD object.
		1490
		1491	For example, to get a wd object for F</etc> and then stat F<passwd>
		1492	inside, you would write:
		1493
		1494	aio_wd "/etc", sub {
		1495	my $etcdir = shift;
		1496
		1497	# although $etcdir can be undef on error, there is generally no reason
		1498	# to check for errors here, as aio_stat will fail with ENOENT
		1499	# when $etcdir is undef.
		1500
		1501	aio_stat [$etcdir, "passwd"], sub {
		1502	# yay
		1503	};
		1504	};
		1505
		1506	That C<aio_wd> is a request and not a normal function shows that creating
		1507	an IO::AIO::WD object is itself a potentially blocking operation, which is
		1508	why it is done asynchronously.
		1509
		1510	To stat the directory obtained with C<aio_wd> above, one could write
		1511	either of the following three request calls:
		1512
		1513	aio_lstat "/etc" , sub { ... # pathname as normal string
		1514	aio_lstat [$wd, "."], sub { ... # "." relative to $wd (i.e. $wd itself)
		1515	aio_lstat $wd , sub { ... # shorthand for the previous
		1516
		1517	As with normal pathnames, IO::AIO keeps a copy of the working directory
		1518	object and the pathname string, so you could write the following without
		1519	causing any issues due to C<$path> getting reused:
		1520
		1521	my $path = [$wd, undef];
		1522
		1523	for my $name (qw(abc def ghi)) {
		1524	$path->[1] = $name;
		1525	aio_stat $path, sub {
		1526	# ...
		1527	};
		1528	}
		1529
		1530	There are some caveats: when directories get renamed (or deleted), the
		1531	pathname string doesn't change, so will point to the new directory (or
		1532	nowhere at all), while the directory fd, if available on the system,
		1533	will still point to the original directory. Most functions accepting a
		1534	pathname will use the directory fd on newer systems, and the string on
		1535	older systems. Some functions (such as realpath) will always rely on the
		1536	string form of the pathname.
		1537
		1538	So this functionality is mainly useful to get some protection against
		1539	C<chdir>, to easily get an absolute path out of a relative path for future
		1540	reference, and to speed up doing many operations in the same directory
		1541	(e.g. when stat'ing all files in a directory).
		1542
		1543	The following functions implement this working directory abstraction:
		1544
		1545	=over 4
		1546
		1547	=item aio_wd $pathname, $callback->($wd)
		1548
		1549	Asynchonously canonicalise the given pathname and convert it to an
		1550	IO::AIO::WD object representing it. If possible and supported on the
		1551	system, also open a directory fd to speed up pathname resolution relative
		1552	to this working directory.
		1553
		1554	If something goes wrong, then C<undef> is passwd to the callback instead
		1555	of a working directory object and C<$!> is set appropriately. Since
		1556	passing C<undef> as working directory component of a pathname fails the
		1557	request with C<ENOENT>, there is often no need for error checking in the
		1558	C<aio_wd> callback, as future requests using the value will fail in the
		1559	expected way.
		1560
		1561	If this call isn't available because your OS lacks it or it couldn't be
		1562	detected, it will be emulated by calling C<fsync> instead.
		1563
		1564	=item IO::AIO::CWD
		1565
		1566	This is a compiletime constant (object) that represents the process
		1567	current working directory.
		1568
		1569	Specifying this object as working directory object for a pathname is as if
		1570	the pathname would be specified directly, without a directory object. For
		1571	example, these calls are functionally identical:
		1572
		1573	aio_stat "somefile", sub { ... };
		1574	aio_stat [IO::AIO::CWD, "somefile"], sub { ... };
		1575
		1576	=back
		1577
		1578	To recover the path associated with an IO::AIO::WD object, you can use
		1579	C<aio_realpath>:
		1580
		1581	aio_realpath $wd, sub {
		1582	warn "path is $_[0]\n";
		1583	};
		1584
		1585	Currently, C<aio_statvfs> always, and C<aio_rename> and C<aio_rmdir>
		1586	sometimes, fall back to using an absolue path.
