From e92030239abb4038d4f915d47021d6c037239309 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Florian Weimer Date: Wed, 19 Apr 2017 07:44:48 +0200 Subject: Assume that accept4 is always available and works Simplify the Linux accept4 implementation based on the assumption that it is available in some way. __ASSUME_ACCEPT4_SOCKETCALL was previously unused, so remove it. For ia64, the accept4 system call (and socket call) were backported in kernel version 3.2.18. Reflect this in the installation instructions. --- manual/install.texi | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) (limited to 'manual') diff --git a/manual/install.texi b/manual/install.texi index 99397c2..d39d2da 100644 --- a/manual/install.texi +++ b/manual/install.texi @@ -566,6 +566,8 @@ patches, although we try to avoid this.
