I'd rather address runtime compliance by breaking this down into explicit checks based on POSIX stat(3) calls. But with that approach rejected [1], mentioning symlinks here helps motivate runtime-tools' choice of os.Stat [2,3] (which follows symlinks) vs. os.Lstat (which does not [4]). [1]: opencontainers#829 (comment) [2]: https://github.com/opencontainers/runtime-tools/blob/f5c82b3918bdfc3ed4b594dcfab4d1554beaf992/cmd/runtimetest/main.go#L319 [3]: https://golang.org/pkg/os/#Stat [4]: https://golang.org/pkg/os/#Lstat Signed-off-by: W.

LGTM (although in my opinion, the existing wording already covers this case with "however it likes" and "etc.") |

os.Stat(which follows symlinks) vs.os.Lstat(which does not).Spun off as a non-controversial portion of the rejected #829, as requested by @crosbymichael on 2017-06-01 (although that request didn't make it into the log).
