NAME
       syd-x - Check executability of the given files

SYNOPSIS
       syd-x [-hcv] [files...]

DESCRIPTION
       syd-x checks executability of the given files. The check uses the
       execveat(2) system call with the flag "AT_EXECVE_CHECK" on Linux>=6.14
       and falls back to the faccessat(2) system call with the flag "X_OK" on
       older Linux.

OPTIONS

       -h   Display help.
       -c   Exit with success if the "AT_EXECVE_CHECK" flag is supported.
       -v   Print file check status information on standard error.


EXIT STATUS
       syd-x exits with 0 on success or with the errno number on failure.

       The utility syd-err(1) may be used to convert the error number into a
       human readable string.
