Hi,

So: What's the latest on asm-generic support on glibc?=20
I just pulled glibc-2.14 and note that Chris Metcalf's
generic implementation hasn't been folded in yet.=20
It seems to work well for me, so can we expect it
anytime soon?

Another problem:  If I don't define __ARCH_WANT_SYSCALL_DEPRECATED
in the kernel asm/unistd.h  then glibc won't build: currently,
I get=20
=2E./sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/getdents.c:105: error: =E2=80=98__NR_getde=
nts=E2=80=99 undeclared (first use in this function)

A very quick grep tells me that asm-generic defines a getdents64
but that is not what glibc is looking for.  Is there any chance
that there are glibc patches floating around somewhere that heal
this and any remaining __ARCH_WANT_SYSCALL_DEPRECATED issues?
