At Alphacore we used to patch the kernel headers for a while now; We
added syscalls __NR_openat (447) until __NR_tee (466).
Why did your numbers differ from the numbers that were used in the
upstream kernel?
Afaik, our patch was done a while ago and nobody every submitted it
upstream - don't know why...
Yes, it was done by me and I had no info how to push the updates to
upstream, sorry. (by that time,
there were no latest "distribution" available with those changes).
At AC, we follow RH/Fedora packages and there we had glibc-kernheaders -
where our patch originates. When the glibc/kernel packages changed and
glibc-kernheaders died, I patched the syscalls into kernel headers; Not
thinking that I better submit it upstream. :-(
Yea, now there is more interest and it is better to do it right. :)
