Sorry, I misspoke. The glibc build process makes the _syscallX macros available to userspace via the <asm/syscalls.h> include. So even if glibc doesn't use those macros directly, it does seem to pass them along. Which is how Markus got on to this whole topic in the first place. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
