From: Andrew Pinski <redacted> Add a separate syscall-table for ILP32, which dispatches either to native LP64 system call implementation or to compat-syscalls, as appropriate.I like it much better than the previous version, thanks for the rework!Hi Yuri, you must have missed my reply below. Are you still working on ilp32 or did you drop this thread because you got distracted with something else?I didn't miss it, and I continue with ILP32. I really appreciate your attention and time you spend on ILP32. There's a tricky bug with signal stack, that Andreas also discovered. It makes almost all tests that use posix threads crash. I want to fix it and other bugs before next submission. I also update glibc to follow all recommendations, and I want to upload it together with kernel patches.
Ok. As a reviewer, I find long waits between submissions a bit annoying because that means I have already forgotten everything I commented on the previous time. Could we try to get consensus on how the syscall ABI should look before you start adapting glibc to another intermediate version? I think that would also save you duplicate work, as it's always possible that we misunderstand each other in the review. Also, when someone asks you questions during a review, please reply to those questions so we can get a common understanding of the facts and document that in the mail archives. Arnd
