It would be great if this worked but I think we looked at it before and it seems nice until you hit the futex stuff and robust lists (I don't fully remember the details). Some of the structures (siginfo) would no longer be POSIX compliant and some of them aren't only accessed via libc to be able to create shadow copies. -- Catalin -- 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/
