We changed the kernel version in August last year. The file which contains the kernel version should contain a comment that this syscall setup needs to be checked. I am guessing we should accept this patch. We would also need to check if other architectures are affected since kernel versions were updated for all of them. -- Nilay _______________________________________________ gem5-dev mailing list [email protected] http://m5sim.org/mailman/listinfo/gem5-dev
