Hi!

LLVM has been failing to build on sparc64 for some weeks with the following error
which indicates that the syscall newfstatat is not available on sparc64 (see below).

Looking at [1] it seems to be missing. Can it be wired up?

LLVM has been failing to build on sparc64 for some weeks with the
following error which indicates that the syscall newfstatat is not
available on sparc64 (see below).

Looking at [1] it seems to be missing. Can it be wired up?

The glibc man page[1] states:

The underlying system call employed by the glibc fstatat() wrapper
function is actually called fstatat64() or, on some architectures, newfstatat().

So, this seems like a mistake on the part of LLVM, if it's documented to
not be available on all architectures.

But, if it can be enabled on sparc64 Linux, then that should be done, sure.
