[New-bugs-announce] [issue42939] Linux's chattr i.e. ioctl(FS_IOC_SETFLAGS) is not supported in os.chflags()

[Марк Коренберг]

New submission from Марк Коренберг <socketpair at gmail.com>:

https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/ioctl_iflags.2.html

Seems the ioctl is only way to implement chattr(). I propose to add all these flags to os.chflags() and to gain its support in Linux.
