Who's responsible for adding > all the syscall tables for the various architectures? Ah, and I was testing with i386, not x86_64, so that it explains that. It's been quite a while since I've worked to add a new system call, but my impressure is that in general the person who creates the new system call needs to reach out to the architecture maintainers (preferably with a patch :-), since otherwise the architecture maintainers would have no idea that a new syscall has been added. - Ted -- 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/
