The N32 syscall table uses sys_fallocate instead of sys32_fallocate. However, glibc expects to be using the syscall version with 32-bit arguments on N32, which should work with sys32_fallocate but not sys_fallocate. What should the N32 interface for this syscall be? My inclination is that glibc is right not to do anything special and different from other 32-bit ABIs here, and so sys32_fallocate should be used. (glibc is also expecting the 32-bit version for N64, but that's a clear bug in glibc that I'll be fixing.) -- Joseph S. Myers joseph@codesourcery.com |
