Why not just use ELF_HWCAP for this? It looks like powerpc only has 3 bits left there (keeping it to 32), but 3 is not 0. If not that, why not use dsocaps? That is, some magic in the vDSO, which glibc already supports on all machines where it uses the vDSO. (For how it works, see the use in arch/x86/vdso/vdso32/note.S for CONFIG_XEN.) Thanks, Roland
