Replace seekdir() with rewinddir() in order to fix a localized glibc bug. One of the glibc patches that stable Gentoo is using causes an improper directory stream positioning bug on 32bit arm. That in turn ends up as a floating point exception in iio_generic_buffer. The attached patch provides a fix by using an equivalent function which should not cause trouble for other distros and is easier to reason about in general as it obviously always goes back to to the start. https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=31212 Signed-off-by: Petre Rodan <petre.rodan@subdimension.ro> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240108103224.3986-1-petre.rodan@subdimension.ro Signed-off-by: Jonathan Cameron <Jonathan.Cameron@huawei.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
