		1460	=head2 IO::AIO::WD - multiple working directories
		1461
		1462	Your process only has one current working directory, which is used by all
		1463	threads. This makes it hard to use relative paths (some other component
		1464	could call C<chdir> at any time, and it is hard to control when the path
		1465	will be used by IO::AIO).
		1466
		1467	One solution for this is to always use absolute paths. This usually works,
		1468	but can be quite slow (the kernel has to walk the whole path on every
		1469	access), and can also be a hassle to implement.
		1470
		1471	Newer POSIX systems have a number of functions (openat, fdopendir,
		1472	futimensat and so on) that make it possible to specify working directories
		1473	per operation.
		1474
		1475	For portability, and because the clowns who "designed", or shall I write,
		1476	perpetrated this new interface were obviously half-drunk, this abstraction
		1477	cannot be perfect, though.
		1478
		1479	IO::AIO allows you to convert directory paths into a so-called IO::AIO::WD
		1480	object. This object stores the canonicalised, absolute version of the
		1481	path, and on systems that allow it, also a directory file descriptor.
		1482
		1483	Everywhere where a pathname is accepted by IO::AIO (e.g. in C<aio_stat>
		1484	or C<aio_unlink>), one can specify an array reference with an IO::AIO::WD
		1485	object and a pathname instead (or the IO::AIO::WD object alone, which
		1486	gets interpreted as C<[$wd, "."]>). If the pathname is absolute, the
		1487	IO::AIO::WD object is ignored, otherwise the pathname is resolved relative
		1488	to that IO::AIO::WD object.
		1489
		1490	For example, to get a wd object for F</etc> and then stat F<passwd>
		1491	inside, you would write:
		1492
		1493	aio_wd "/etc", sub {
		1494	my $etcdir = shift;
		1495
		1496	# although $etcdir can be undef on error, there is generally no reason
		1497	# to check for errors here, as aio_stat will fail with ENOENT
		1498	# when $etcdir is undef.
		1499
		1500	aio_stat [$etcdir, "passwd"], sub {
		1501	# yay
		1502	};
		1503	};
		1504
		1505	That C<aio_wd> is a request and not a normal function shows that creating
		1506	an IO::AIO::WD object is itself a potentially blocking operation, which is
		1507	why it is done asynchronously.
		1508
		1509	To stat the directory obtained with C<aio_wd> above, one could write
		1510	either of the following three request calls:
		1511
		1512	aio_lstat "/etc" , sub { ... # pathname as normal string
		1513	aio_lstat [$wd, "."], sub { ... # "." relative to $wd (i.e. $wd itself)
		1514	aio_lstat $wd , sub { ... # shorthand for the previous
		1515
		1516	As with normal pathnames, IO::AIO keeps a copy of the working directory
		1517	object and the pathname string, so you could write the following without
		1518	causing any issues due to C<$path> getting reused:
		1519
		1520	my $path = [$wd, undef];
		1521
		1522	for my $name (qw(abc def ghi)) {
		1523	$path->[1] = $name;
		1524	aio_stat $path, sub {
		1525	# ...
		1526	};
		1527	}
		1528
		1529	There are some caveats: when directories get renamed (or deleted), the
		1530	pathname string doesn't change, so will point to the new directory (or
		1531	nowhere at all), while the directory fd, if available on the system,
		1532	will still point to the original directory. Most functions accepting a
		1533	pathname will use the directory fd on newer systems, and the string on
		1534	older systems. Some functions (such as realpath) will always rely on the
		1535	string form of the pathname.
		1536
		1537	So this functionality is mainly useful to get some protection against
		1538	C<chdir>, to easily get an absolute path out of a relative path for future
		1539	reference, and to speed up doing many operations in the same directory
		1540	(e.g. when stat'ing all files in a directory).
		1541
		1542	The following functions implement this working directory abstraction:
		1543
		1544	=over 4
		1545
		1546	=item aio_wd $pathname, $callback->($wd)
		1547
		1548	Asynchonously canonicalise the given pathname and convert it to an
		1549	IO::AIO::WD object representing it. If possible and supported on the
		1550	system, also open a directory fd to speed up pathname resolution relative
		1551	to this working directory.
		1552
		1553	If something goes wrong, then C<undef> is passwd to the callback instead
		1554	of a working directory object and C<$!> is set appropriately. Since
		1555	passing C<undef> as working directory component of a pathname fails the
		1556	request with C<ENOENT>, there is often no need for error checking in the
		1557	C<aio_wd> callback, as future requests using the value will fail in the
		1558	expected way.
		1559
		1560	If this call isn't available because your OS lacks it or it couldn't be
		1561	detected, it will be emulated by calling C<fsync> instead.
		1562
		1563	=item IO::AIO::CWD
		1564
		1565	This is a compiletime constant (object) that represents the process
		1566	current working directory.
		1567
		1568	Specifying this object as working directory object for a pathname is as if
		1569	the pathname would be specified directly, without a directory object. For
		1570	example, these calls are functionally identical:
		1571
		1572	aio_stat "somefile", sub { ... };
		1573	aio_stat [IO::AIO::CWD, "somefile"], sub { ... };
		1574
		1575	=back
		1576
		1577	To recover the path associated with an IO::AIO::WD object, you can use
		1578	C<aio_realpath>:
		1579
		1580	aio_realpath $wd, sub {
		1581	warn "path is $_[0]\n";
		1582	};
		1583
		1584	Currently, C<aio_statvfs> always, and C<aio_rename> and C<aio_rmdir>
		1585	sometimes, fall back to using an absolue path.
