Hello,

I've stumbled upon a weird zsh behaviour regarding zwc files.
There's a read-only root filesystem with overlayfs (just a regular boot
with systemd.volatile=overlay).

$ cat /etc/zshrc
autoload -U compinit
compinit

$ strace -efile -f zsh -i -c exit 2>&1 | grep /etc/zshrc
stat64("/etc/zshrc.zwc", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0444, st_size=312, ...}) = 0
stat64("/etc/zshrc", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=31, ...}) = 0
openat(AT_FDCWD, "/etc/zshrc.zwc", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = 3
openat(AT_FDCWD, "/etc/zshrc.zwc", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = 3

- this seems fine, but following doesn't:

$ strace -efile -f zsh -i -c exit 2>&1 | grep _zip
lstat64("/usr/share/zsh/5.8/functions/_zip.zwc", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0444, st_size=19312, ...}) = 0
lstat64("/usr/share/zsh/5.8/functions/_zip", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=9735, ...}) = 0
openat(AT_FDCWD, "/usr/share/zsh/5.8/functions/_zip", O_RDONLY|O_NOCTTY|O_LARGEFILE) = 3

/usr/share/zsh/5.8/functions$ zcompile -t _zip.zwc
zwc file (mapped) for zsh-5.8
_zip


The same happens with zcompiled -R -U -z -k.


This is 32-bit image for HP thin client, this time run in 64-bit
QEMU/KVM guest. However, when I chroot into this directly from the 64-bit 
host, the behavior seems fine - there's a bunch of lstat64() without
openat() of _zip file (esp. when I create digest functions.zwc).


My intention is to generate /usr/share/zsh/5.8/functions.zwc on boot:

zcompile /usr/share/zsh/5.8/functions.zwc /usr/share/zsh/5.8/functions/*

as the destination thin client has very slow CPU and flash drive (20 MB/s
sequential read) and it takes over 1 second to read all the 7 MBs of
completion files and spawn new shell each time.
