Message-ID: <m37linnc98.fsf@localhost.localnet> (raw)
[linux only]
I had to modify the changes Andreas made for the rlimit stuff. They
have to be in 32-bit platform specific directories. I know that
currently the kernel has the change of the constants in a shared file
but this will change since rth only yesterday found out that this
change was made and he didn't like it (not copatible with OSF).
Besides this for platforms like m68k and probably also Arm the change
was not useful as well. There will be no 4GB address spaces.
Therefore I've so far enabled the versioning for the rlimit stuff only
on x86. If after the kernel change this is necessary for other
platforms as well we still can make appropriate other changes.
(Oh, I'll start testing the changes in a bit, so don't complain if
they don't work).
PS: Now glibc should compile on ALpha again. This wasn't the case
before which was the initial reason why I looked into this.
