+Subject: main: create new file when writing pidfile
+
+When writing the pidfile, open the file with the O_CREAT|O_EXCL flags
+to avoid following a symlink and writing the PID to an unexpected file,
+when chronyd still has the root privileges.
+
+The Linux open(2) man page warns about O_EXCL not working as expected on
+NFS versions before 3 and Linux versions before 2.6. Saving pidfiles on
+a distributed filesystem like NFS is not generally expected, but if
+there is a reason to do that, these old kernel and NFS versions are not
+considered to be supported for saving files by chronyd.
+
+This is a minimal backport specific to this issue of the following
+commits:
+- commit 2fc8edacb810 ("use PATH_MAX")
+- commit f4c6a00b2a11 ("logging: call exit() in LOG_Message()")
+- commit 7a4c396bba8f ("util: add functions for common file operations")
+- commit e18903a6b563 ("switch to new util file functions")
