Subject: [PATCH] - UML - fix call to sys_clone
Date: Tue, 14 Sep 2004 15:33:53 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200409141933.i8EJXr4W003552@ccure.user-mode-linux.org> (raw)
This patch changes the calling convention of clone on i386 to match that of
the host by leaving the fourth argument unused.
