Hi!
Can someone explain me, why we have different define's for WRLCK and RDLCK within alpha kernel headers:
Alpha system:
asm/fcntl.h:#define F_RDLCK 1 asm-generic/fcntl.h:#ifndef F_RDLCK asm-generic/fcntl.h:#define F_RDLCK 0 bits/fcntl.h:#define F_RDLCK 1 /* Read lock. */
Intel system:
asm-generic/fcntl.h:#ifndef F_RDLCK asm-generic/fcntl.h:#define F_RDLCK 0 bits/fcntl.h:#define F_RDLCK 0 /* Read lock. */
I would say F_RDLCK should better be 0 as in i386, but I also guess that changing this would break many things, wouldn't it?
I don't want to tell you my (long) story, how I found that and why I was searching for it :-(
(Jay, you know what I'm talkin' about, don't you?)
Well, maybe my kernel headers are just packaged up like crap!?
Best, Oliver
