Aha. In that case, can you (separately) send a prctl.2 manpage patch documenting that? Also, I'm pretty sure you can get away with doing this for seccomp(2) -- EINVAL and ENOSYS are easily distinguishable, but the current behavior is IMO also fine if documented. --Andy -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
