Linux 3.11 gets a new flag for open():
Quote from http://lwn.net/Articles/557314/

The new O_TMPFILE option to the open() and openat() system calls allows filesystems to optimize the creation of temporary files — files which need not be visible in the filesystem. When O_TMPFILE is present, the provided pathname is only used to locate the containing directory (and thus the filesystem where the temporary file should be). So, among other things, programs using O_TMPFILE should have fewer concerns about vulnerabilities resulting from symbolic link attacks.

Tasks:
- add O_TEMPFILE to posixmodule.c
- use O_TEMPFILE in tempfile module when it's supported by the current kernel

I assume this would only be done in TemporaryFile()?

How do you detect that a kernel does not support the flag? Try to use the flag and handle the error?

I have added O_TMPFILE to the os module.
I like to hold off with the actual use of O_TMPFILE in tempfile until Python 3.5. The feature is too new and I don't have any way to test it. Some people have reported file system corruption in 3.11-rc4, too.
