Description:
In a followup to his session at the
2025 Linux Plumbers Conference (LPC), Carlos O'Donell returned to the topic
of system-call
wrappers for the GNU C library (glibc) at this year's event. This time
around, he was joined by Florian Weimer, who is another glibc maintainer.
The idea was to give an update on what has happened over the last year with regard to Linux system calls that lack a glibc wrapper, thus are only accessible via syscall() . In addition, they wanted to hear from attendees about their
needs in this area.
