Just for clarification: Any change to that interface needs to be discussed with the *libc people first. Your way of overriding the robust list interfacce with some ad hoc solution will break existing users which is not acceptable. So either the problem is solved with the *libc people in a way which allows them to build upon or if your intention is solely to solve the problem Keith described then none of this is required at all as user space can handle the different layouts for that magic fence implementation perfectly fine. Thanks, tglx
