That would be an attractive solution if GLDv2 was still maintained. But it is treated as an obsolete 2nd class citizen. New features (such as LSO) are not backported to it. > - Contribute to the effort by offering to work out the kinks > (changing the code if necessary) to make this a supportable > interface. > > - Go ahead with hackery, and let your users sort out the > shrapnel. I'm actually tempted to do this, which is why I requested the header file be shipped with the kernel.
