This patch consolidates the epoll_wait Linux syscall generation on sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/epoll_wait.c. The implementation tries to use __NR_epoll_wait if defined, otherwise calls epoll_pwait. Checked on i686-linux-gnu, x86_64-linux-gnu, x86_64-linux-gnux32, arch64-linux-gnu, arm-linux-gnueabihf, and powerpc64le-linux-gnu. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/epoll_wait.c: New file. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/generic/epoll_wait.c: Remove file. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/syscalls.list: Remove epoll_wait from auto-generation list.
This hierarchy supports Linux systems using the new asm-generic/unistd.h, which removes many familiar old syscalls. For example, to implement open(), newer Linux architectures require glibc to invoke the __NR_openat syscall with AT_FDCWD. This hierarchy provides all those implementations. It also provides support for 32-bit platforms using the 64-bit kernel syscall APIs, as the 32-bit ones are no longer provided. Note that newer ILP32 environments (x32 or AArch64:ILP32, for example) are converting to use more 64-bit types in kernel syscalls, so that aspect of this support is in more flux as of this writing.
