For reference, readlink return type changed in r176215 https://reviews.freebsd.org/rS176215 A commit references this bug: Author: emaste Date: Tue Apr 16 13:26:32 UTC 2019 New revision: 346273 URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/346273 Log: correct readlinkat(2) return type r176215 corrected readlink(2)'s return type and the type of the last argument. readlink(2) was introduced in r177788 after being developed as part of Google Summer of Code 2007; it appears to have inherited the wrong return type. Man pages and header files were already ssize_t; update syscalls.master to match.
