Subject: Sysctl syscall
Date: Thu, 16 Nov 2006 00:03:02 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200611160003.02681.hasso@estpak.ee> (raw)
Compiling the program which uses a lot "sysctl" syscalls, gives me this
warning on Debian unstable:
"warning: the `sysctl' syscall has been removed from 2.6.18+ kernels,
direct access to `/proc/sys' should be used instead."
Is it true? And what can be used as alternative which would work with both
2.4 and 2.6 kernels and would work with capabilities (sys/capability.h)?
Accessing `/proc/sys' directly isn't such alternative as it doesn't work
with capabilities.
regards,
