 * guarantee that disk space is available for the file at the
 * given size. If disk space is insufficient, errno is set to ENOSPC.
 * If posix_fallocate() is not supported, program may receive
 * SIGBUS on accessing mmap()'ed file contents instead.
 *
 * If the C library implements memfd_create(), it is used to create the
 * file purely in memory, without any backing file name on the file
 * system, and then sealing off the possibility of shrinking it. This
 * can then be checked before accessing mmap()'ed file contents, to make
 * sure SIGBUS can't happen. It also avoids requiring XDG_RUNTIME_DIR.
