# Walk Along the Path

For each path component symlink that isn't the final component... It is also possible to get an ELOOP or EMLINK error if there are too many symlinks, but no loop was detected. `open(pathname = "/tmp/rabbit-hole", flags = O_RDONLY) failed, Too many levels of symbolic links (40, ELOOP) because too many symbolic links were encountered in pathname (8)` Notice how the actual limit is also printed.
