Unable to build a C program using renameat2() system call in Android-ndk r11c

[Quang Tuan Dam]

Hello everybody,


I would like to use renameat2() system call in my C program. renameat2() is available from Linux kernel 3.15.
I try to build my C program using Android NDK r11c but it seems that the system call is not available.
I would like to know how can I build my C program using renameat2() system call? As I know
LG G5 or Samsung S7 both use kernel version 3.18 so the renameat2() is available?

Thank you a lot for your help.

With best regards,

Dam Quang Tuan

especially the sentence "Employing syscall ..."

Android devices do not have kernels that new.

Thank you for your help. Finally I got it working in LG G5 by using arm-linux-gnueabi compiler.
