I thought stack sizes were floating on ia64 anyway; if glibc isn't configured that way, it should be (no need for 2.2.x kernel compatibility...) It is not. The 2.4.0+ requirement is relevant to IA-32 only anyway (older kernels had broken LDT handling) and was requirement for %gs based threads, ie. where thread pointer lives in register (and that is a requirement for floating stacks). Floating stacks for alpha could be added easily (it is just a matter of testing), for IA-64 it will need some work (because of the divided stack vs. register save area issues). Should be fixed in glibc-2.2.3-14 in rawhide. Red Hat Linux and Red Hat Powertools are currently no longer supported by Red Hat, Inc. In an effort to clean up bugzilla, we are closing all bugs in MODIFIED state for these products. However, we do want to make sure that nothing important slips through the cracks. If, in fact, these issues are not resolved in a current Fedora Core Release (such as Fedora Core 5), please open a new issues stating so. Thanks. |
