I want to find out what linux libc entry points are not found within the BSD libc, and what entry points that are common have different arguments be they just different or things of the same name with different definitions. This is so a shim library can be developed allowing the use of Linux libraries liked into FreeBSD binaries. I am anticipating that perhaps the Linux lib may have to be altered in some way (changing the name of an external reference where it clashes with a FreeBSD libc call of the same name with varying arguments, or mapping external variables onto their FreeBSD equivalents). It'll make the use of certain recalcitrant third party libs a bunch easier. Stephen To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
