Commit Message

Mickaël Salaün Jan. 15, 2025, 2:47 p.m. UTC
Add an execveat(2) wrapper because glibc < 2.34 does not have one.  This
fixes the check-exec tests and samples.

Do you want to add a comment next to these, to remind ourselves do undo this?
You are surely not planning to support old versions of glibc indefinitely?

I don't about glibc.  Minimal versions for other tools are documented
here though:
https://docs.kernel.org/process/changes.html

Nathan, Jon, any idea?

I do not know if the idea of setting a minimum supported version of a
libc has ever come up before (at least I am unaware of one). I suspect
most people do a patch like this then move on because it is the
maximally compatible option and these samples are not changing much, are
they? This is the first build error I can recall seeing as a result of
using an older glibc environment. If we would like to seriously consider
setting a minimum supported version of glibc, it deserves a conversation
with a wider audience since it could impact areas other than the
samples, such as host tools (and IMHO, feels like a big hammer).

Cheers,
Nathan
