Re: missing file (/etc/ld.so.preload)
Hi there,
] What I'm doing is running a pipe between two background processes. Opening
] pipe for reading and writing both fail "illegal seek". Does this qualify
] as "special requirements" ?
Not at all. Probably your program is trying some funny file-oriented
syscall on the pipe, so it fails. You can't do lseek on a pipe, for
example.
] In any event I'm curious now to know what this file does do (and perhaps
] some example of the sort of special requirements that might require it) ?
man ld.so
It will give you some insight on how the shared libraries get loaded.
HTH!
