Re: Alpha hwcaps
Hi,
it looks like there *is* already some support in the loader for this:
% LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/lib strace true 2>&1
execve("/bin/true", ["true"], [/* 36 vars */]) = 0
uname({sys="Linux", node="juist", ...}) = 0
brk(0) = 0x120013668
mmap(NULL, 8192, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0x2000001e000
open("/etc/ld.so.preload", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/lib/ev5/libc.so.6.1", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat("/lib/ev5", 0x11fffe688) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/lib/libc.so.6.1", O_RDONLY) = 3
[...]
However, even after searching for about half an hour, I could not find
the place in the code where it gets probed and the path extended...
can anybody give me a hint?
