FreeBSD 10.0 and epoll syscall (Linuxulator)

[patpro]

Hi all, and happy new year!

During the month of September, an announcement was made about alpha releases of FreeBSD 10.0. In particular, the availability of FreeBSD 10.0-ALPHA4 was posted with interesting details:

- Implement epoll support in Linuxulator.

I wonder whether these changes made it through the release process, or not. I've installed a 10.0-RC3, and eventually upgraded to RC4, but Linux applications using the epoll_* system call keep on failing:

linux: pid 52288 (steamcmd): syscall epoll_create not implemented
linux: pid 52315 (steamcmd): syscall epoll_create not implemented
linux: pid 52339 (steamcmd): syscall epoll_create not implemented

Any idea?

It was removed in one of the commits. I couldn't find the specific commit that removed it

epoll was removed in r255675 (http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=rev ... ion=255675).

Haaa damn. I really hope they will find a way to add epoll support soon (and other missing system calls). Thank you for the pointer.
