Thanks, I wasn't aware of the discussion in this thread. Unfortunately I do not know of any progress wrt this matter at Altera. My primary interest at the moment is getting the kernel port ready for mainline submission. One of the requirements for this to happen seems to be the convertion to the asm-generic syscall ABI which I'm currently working on. For this an updated glibc port will be needed. Joseph: Are the sources of the improved CodeSourcery port availbale somewhere publicly or are they only available if one buys/evaluates CodeBench? I'd like to base my glibc work to come on the most recent and mature version of glibc, so it would be nice to start off CodeSourcey's version. Thanks Tobias
