It works correctly on Fedora 20 32-bit and 64-bit. I don't actually know what the affected distribution is, which makes it hard. But it would be rather surprising if it didn't, since I suspect people would have noticed and complained very quickly and loudly if there was ever a glibc version that didn't work without a vDSO. TBH, I'd be more surprised if this breaks anything than I'd be if current kernels are already broken. --Andy -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
