David has difficulties understanding how to send patches, so you missed the cover/context. This is for the Haiku OS which apparently is POSIX.1-2001 compatible. I don't know about DRI-1.0, maybe it is POSIX.1-2008? >>> -util-obj-$(CONFIG_POSIX) += drm.o >>> +util-obj-$(CONFIG_LINUX) += drm.o > > Can't see anything linux-specific there.

This change was my suggestion; I assumed that "open /dev/dri/whatever" was Linux-specific. The specific thing that doesn't work on Haiku, or on Solaris for that matter, is that the code uses DT_CHR, which isn't in POSIX but is a Linux-and-BSDism. thanks -- PMM
1/ It does not compile on Haiku has dirent does not contain d_type field (among other things). 2/ does not support drm anyway. 3/ Haiku is less portable than a illumos or NetBSD system, even with the BSD compatibility layer.

Otherwise, if it is ok if not all patches are accepted (like this one) but at least most of them would be nice then Haikuport can decrease needed local patches. Regards.

Yes, DT_CHR is an non-posix optimization which allows to get the file type directly, without another round-trip to the kernel. If that isn't available you can stat() the file and check ((st_mode & S_IFMT) == S_IFCHR) instead. take care, Gerd

Even when d_type and DT_CHR is available, there are filesystems where the Linux kernel reports d_type of DT_UNKNOWN, and where you are best having that code also falling back to an fstat(). In short, any portable code that uses d_type should have fallback code for DT_UNKNOWN, at which point porting to systems without d_type is as easy as writing an accessor macro that returns d_type when it exists and DT_UNKNOWN where it doesn't.

Given this isn't perforance critical at all it is probably simplest to avoid non-portable d_type altogether and just to the fstat unconditionally.
