Guidance for GSoC 2025 - Enhancing compat_linux in NetBSD

[Pranav Tyagi <pranav.tyagi03%gmail.com@localhost>]

Dear tech-kern,

I’m interested in contributing to NetBSD as part of GSoC 2025, specifically focusing on improving the compat_linux layer by implementing missing Linux syscalls.

Could you please advise on:

1. Suggested starting points or known Linux binaries with compatibility issues to investigate.
2. Key resources or documentation for understanding the compat_linux layer.
3. Recommended tools for tracing and debugging missing syscalls.

Any additional advice on how to collaborate effectively with NetBSD developers would also be appreciated.

Thank you for your time!

Regards
Pranav Tyagi
