It should be there since kernel 2.6.28 and glibc 2.10. With proper kernel support, and a more recent strace it would look like: accept4(3, 0, NULL, SOCK_CLOEXEC) = 11 Not sure how that can happen on your side. The last parameter, the CLOEXEC flag is definitely not 0. > Note, that the ENOSYS errors didnt show up when i just attached strace to the > udev process. > What is this SYS_366 message telling me?

Yeah, we could try to catch these errors, but it seems there is something that needs to be fixed in your kernel or glibc. Udev requires at minimum kernel 2.6.32, and that *should* work there.
