Furthermore, the kernel should /not/ export a would-be kernel interface by defining it in terms of a non-kernel interface. getpagesize() belongs to libc, and might not exist at all or have that form. Linux is not Solaris. There can be many different libcs in a system. /Mikael - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
