> {{RawLocalFileSystem}} currently implements some file creation operations as
> a sequence of 2 syscalls: create the file, followed by setting its
> permissions. If creation succeeds, but then setting permission causes an
> exception to be thrown, then there is no attempt to close the previously
> opened file, resulting in a file descriptor leak.
