Description Bryan Christ 2008-05-16 16:28:06 UTC
I hate to file a BZ on this, but I cannot find stropts.h.  I have read in
several places that it was removed from F9, but I cannot find any information
about where the module macros (like I_PUSH, I_POP, etc..) were moved to.

Comment 1 Jakub Jelinek 2008-05-19 09:14:02 UTC
Why do you need the I_PUSH/I_POP macros when Linux kernel doesn't support them?

Comment 2 Bryan Christ 2008-05-19 14:44:03 UTC
If the kernel doesn't support them, then I have my answer.  I am curious as to
why they are not since the man pages are written in such a way that these macros
appear to be mandated by the IEEE and Open Group.  Also, I_PUSH is used in the
GNU primer for initiating ptys.  See the example here:
