Re: glibc 2.15


Going through patches we apply for openSUSE, I noticed that we have this patch in - and I don't think there's a solution for 2.16 yet.

Jeff, could you file a bugreport with details, please?

Is there anybody that could review this?

An FYI, this patch:


commit c5a0802a682dba23f92d47f0f99775aebfbe2539 Author: Andreas Schwab <schwab@redhat.com> Date: Mon Nov 28 13:38:19 2011 +0100

Handle EAGAIN from FUTEX_WAIT_REQUEUE_PI


Has been reported as causing numerous problems in Fedora & Debian. I don't think anyone has done any serious analysis of the issue, but the patch has been pulled from both distributions because of the instability it's introduced.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=769421
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=651899

It might be worth your time to dig further into the change or pull it
from 2.15 pending a deeper investigation.
