[uml-devel] openswan @ missing symbols strstr & memset

[Nikola Ciprich <extmaillist@linuxbox.cz>]

Hello, I was trying to get openswan working under UML, module compiles
fine, but trying to load it fails with complaint about unresolved symbol
memset and strstr
I've found that those symbols are exported in i386 ksyms, but not in uml
ksyms, so I've created little patch (enclosed), and everythink seems to
work well. I'd like to ask, if my solution is 'clean' and if yes,
wouldn;t it be usefull to add all such missing symbols (for work wish
strings etc). if yes, i'd gladly create patch for inclusion
thanks
nik
