I would prefer another way to support old kernels:
int ret;
ret = syscall(SYS_mlock2, addr, len, flags);
if (ret == -1 && errno == ENOSYS && flags == 0)
return mlock(addr, len);
return ret;
This way works a bit slower on old kernels, but it doesn't have side
effects if mlock2 is supported.
For example, the user can set seccomp rules, and he will not expect that
the mlock syscall will be executed, when he calls mlock2() in a code.
Thanks,
Andrei
