Ok, I wired the system call up on s390 and the test case passed. Below is the patch that is needed to actually reach the system call from other architectures than x86. Andrew, can you pick this one up as well? The code that wires the system call up on s390 will go upstream via the s390 tree. Thanks to kcmp being a cond_syscall there is no compile time dependency. >From 1ff800597ea8f678a179387e3cf2ae663531e2fe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carst...@de.ibm.com> Date: Thu, 13 Sep 2012 09:37:38 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] syscalls: make kcmp syscall available for all architectures Remove the x86 dependency, since the system call is not architecture dependend. Also add a ptrace.h include, so it compiles at least also on s390.
