Are we talking about the same thing at all?
We're talking about the *COMPAT* vdso, right?
The one you were just told Fedora had never _ever_ enabled? And you are seriously arguing that "peformance" is relevant, while at the same time trying to claim that the fact that it DOES NOT WORK on SuSE - which *did* enable it - is not such a big deal, and that we should ignore the "don't break user space" rule?
Seriously?
WTF?
Linus
