There is no glibc wrapper for this system call; see NOTES.

.SH NOTES
|

Glibc does not provide a wrapper for this system call; call it using

.BR syscall (2).
|
||||
Note however, that

.BR spu_create ()
|

is meant to be used from libraries that implement a more abstract
|
||||
interface to SPUs, not to be used from regular applications.
