Subject: [PATCH] Documentation: disable vdso_test to avoid breakage with old glibc
Date: Tue, 16 Sep 2014 20:09:25 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1410912565-26085-1-git-send-email-pefoley2@pefoley.com> (raw)
glibc versions older than 2.16 don't include sys/auxv.h which this
executable uses.
Since we don't have a good way to test for specific glibc versions in
kbuild, just disable it for now.
