I've translated (but not tested) kevent, pselect, select, sigaltstack, gettimeofday and getrusage, plus about a dozen helper functions. The helpers themselves took more work than the syscalls, also the overall structure needed a lot of work to be functional (at least partially). So far it isn't possible to run a complete application using this layer yet. > What are your plans for the next 1 or 2 weeks? My classes are starting again this week, so I may be only available at night. I don't think it will be possible to run a complete in the end (I'm aware that is not enough to pass in the final evaluation), so I'll focus on creating an program to test the already translated syscalls. I will stay and finish this even after GSoC ends, I just think that I bit off more than I could chew. -- Ivan Sichmann Freitas GNU/Linux user #509059
