+/* Assuming the current directory is FD, get the symbolic link value
+ of FILENAME as a null-terminated string and put it into a buffer.
+ If FD is AT_FDCWD, FILENAME is interpreted relative to the current
+ working directory, as in openat.
+
+ If the link is small enough to fit into BUFFER put it there.
+ BUFFER's size is BUFFER_SIZE, and BUFFER can be null
+ if BUFFER_SIZE is zero.
+
+ If the link is not small, put it into a dynamically allocated
+ buffer managed by ALLOC. It is the caller's responsibility to free
+ the returned value if it is nonnull and is not BUFFER. A null
+ ALLOC stands for the standard allocator.
+
+ The PREADLINKAT function specifies how to read links. It operates
+ like POSIX readlinkat()
+ <http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/readlink.html>
+ but can assume that its first argument is the same as FD.
+
+ If successful, return the buffer address; otherwise return NULL and
+ set errno. */
