Yes, please drop the s390 patch. In general it seems to be better if only one architecture gets a syscall wired up initially and let other arches follow later.
Just wondering if the x86_64 compat syscall gets ever fixed? I think I mentioned already three or four times to Amit that it is broken. Or is it that nobody cares? Dunno..
In addition there used to be a somewhat inofficial rule that new syscalls have to come with a test program, so people can easily test if they wired up the syscall correctly. - 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/
