We don't do any syscall() function, we do an RPC. That's where we'll
need to call RPC stubs generated by MIG, just like libc's read()
function actually calls the __io_read RPC stub. As I mentioned already
in by mail on 29th may, in the meanwhile you can just stuff
vg_assert(0) for a start, to get something linked at all.
Here, dup is actually a complex one, because there's no such RPC. file
descriptors in the Hurd are implemented in the libc. Have a look at
libc's dup implementation, which is in glibc/sysdeps/mach/hurd/dup3.c.
You'll see that it actually deals with a _hurd_dtable array, which
contains the file descriptors. That's the kind of thing you'll have to
implement to get coregrind to be able to use dup(). Not a full-fledged
version like in libc, with mutex_lock and everything. Just enough of it
so that coregrind is happy with it.
