Does anyone have a working patch for ibcs-3.8 on the 2.6.31 kernel?
I created a patch to compile it for this kernel, but it is not working. Actually I don't think it even gets to the part of the module I patched.
Every time I run a SCO elf executable, it gets a segmentation fault on the "lcall 7" instruction.
It looks like the kernel is not passing on the lcall 7 syscalls to the ibcs abi_lcall module.
For anyone interested, I pasted my non-working patch on pastebin:

I also am interested in running an SCO Unix app on the 2.6.31 kernel (OpenSUSE 11.2) but ibcs-3.8 is failing to compile for me.
Am I to understand that you have compiled ibcs-3.8 on the 2.6.31 kernel? Failure is occurring at run time?

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Yes, I modified ibcs-3.8 to compile on 2.6.31. However, at runtime everything just gets a segmentation fault. I am running a SCO Openserver 5 executable as well that has worked in the past.
The kernel syscall hook for lcall 7 is not working anymore, because it never even gets to the ibcs code.
I readded my patch to pastebin if you want to try it:
John,
I applied your patch. Compiled OK and the modules do load. Tried my SCO Unix app but, nothing happens. Cannot get back to the commandline with ctrl-C. Nothing in /var/log/messages. Unable to end the process with kill.
Executing en_tr gives segmentation fault.
Maybe Alex is quietly working on the issue.
