remove rump.linux? #98

Closed justincormack closed 10 years ago

justincormack commented 11 years ago

Its a bit inconsistent, mixing types

anttikantee commented 11 years ago

IMHO it's the easiest way to test NetBSD's Linux binary emulation, since it does not require actual Linux binaries.

Unless rump.linux is actively causing problems, I'd leave it in ljsyscall and perhaps even try to get the ljsyscall rump.linux tests to run as part of the NetBSD automated test suite.

cc @alnsn with whom I had some related discussions recently

No I just meant that file not the functionality! It patches in some NetBSD types into Linux which I should be able to get more directly... just been cleaning up the setup code.

anttikantee commented 11 years ago

Ah, ok, keep up the great work then! ;)

justincormack commented 11 years ago

Actually I just had a coffee with Alexander Nasonov and we were talking about getting this into the NetBSD test framework. I am close to getting it all working with standard Lua rather than just LuaJIT...

Great, hopefully you came up with some concrete next steps.

.. hmm, seems like your meeting was announced on twitter ;-)
