compat_linux and AIO

[Emmanuel Dreyfus <manu%netbsd.org@localhost>]

Hi

I am playing with oracle XE on 6.0_RC2 and ktrace tells me that this
requires Linux aio_* system calls.

Here is the documentation:
http://lse.sourceforge.net/io/aio.html

Abd the system call man pages:
http://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/online/pages/man2/io_setup.2.html
http://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/online/pages/man2/io_submit.2.html
http://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/online/pages/man2/io_getevents.2.html
http://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/online/pages/man2/io_cancel.2.html
http://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/online/pages/man2/io_destroy.2.html

How difficult would this be to implement? Anyone has ideas on it?

It also seems to require syscall 340 prlimit64(), a system call 
that implement a setrlimit for another PID. Easier to do.

And it also calls futex with op = 0x189, which I do not grasp for now.
