• c97db4a0a   [PATCH] i386 vDSO: add PT_NOTE segment ... Browse Code »

  This patch adds an ELF note to the vDSO giving the LINUX_VERSION_CODE
  value. Having this in the vDSO lets the dynamic linker avoid the `uname'
  syscall it now always does at startup to ascertain the kernel ABI
  available.
