As noted in the documentation for os.stat
(https://docs.python.org/3.9/library/os.html#os.stat):
> This function normally follows symlinks; to stat a symlink add the argument
> follow_symlinks=False, or use lstat().

New submission from omer sela :
when calling os.stat(fd).st_ino on with a file descriptor of a symbolic link it
returns the inode of the original file and not of the link (picture attached)
