Sorry for replying to the wrong email in the thread -- my gmane feed
missed the original.
One thing that might be nice to add is AT_VDSO_FINDSYM [1]. A lot of
userspace implementations (especially for static, embedded things) might
significantly prefer that style of entry point.
If you want to use vdso2c for vdso image post-processing, I'd be happy
to try to make it available outside arch/x86 and to make it more
configurable as needed.
Please use _install_special_mapping instead of install_special_mapping.
AFAICS it's basically impossible to use install_special_mapping correctly.
