.SH NAME
|
|
oldfstat, oldlstat, oldstat, oldolduname, olduname \- obsolete system calls
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
Obsolete system calls.
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
The Linux 2.0 kernel implements these calls to support old executables.
|
|
These calls return structures which have grown since their
|
|
first implementation,
|
|
but old executables must continue to receive old smaller structures.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Current executables should be linked with current libraries and never
|
|
use these calls.
|
|
.SH "CONFORMING TO"
|
|
These calls are unique to Linux and should not be used at all in new programs.
