[Bug libc/1458] mremap() fifth argument and MREMAP_FIXED not exposed in glibc


------- Additional Comments From aruns at google dot com  2007-11-17 07:22 -------

Making mremap() a function with variable number of arguments changes the ABI on
x86_64. Code compiled before this change will treat %rax as scratch. After the
change, the calling conventions expect %al to be set to the number of XMM
registers passed.

Is there a reason why mremap was not versioned after the change?
