<damo22>did you see my patches on the mailing list?

<VedantT>I followed the instructions exactly as you specified

<VedantT>Currently I am just completing my local tree then I will start building soon

<VedantT>I am following your 2021 patch and the rust 1.3.0 patch

<damo22>that is good, but remember we want to ideally port this to latest rust

<VedantT>yes since there have been many changes to master I would need to figure out how to place the required additions correctly

<damo22>it may be different yes

<VedantT>youpi1 mentioned that some parts utilized in the mod.rs and other files were the same even though the structure has been changed. In addition, I should essentially base my changes following the files for freebsd throughout libc?

<damo22>no i used bsd/ files because i was lazy

<damo22>you need to check fs.rs and raw.rs they are most likely incorrect

<damo22>but something like that needs to be written

<damo22>however i dont know if that changed in later versions of rust, maybe its gone

<damo22>i have given you a lot to start with, maybe if youre unfamiliar, just familiarise yourself with the codebase that i have already sent you and try to build it

<VedantT>Sure fs.rs essentially defines the metadata that a file contains but what is the function for raw.rs?

<VedantT>does it just contain the aliases and attributes for the specified OS?

<damo22>dont worry too much about raw.rs even if you delete it and remove its reference you will see compiler errors and why i included it

<damo22>try to get a working development environment and let it build, it needs to compile llvm which takes a while
