Hi, we have recently got a problem in the Fedora development version (aka Rawhide) where the installer, written in Python, crashed when loading shared libs thru the Python modules with
"libgomp.so.1: cannot allocate memory in static TLS block" on aarch64 and ppc64le platforms. For details please read https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1722181 After a discussion with the toolchain team we realized that TLS storage is scarce and pretty limited. Fortunately the rpm maintainer was able to fix librpm (from static buffer to dynamically allocated) and librpmio (incorrect use of "static __thread"), so we are unblocked now. But there are other libraries with a high consumption of the TLS space and pixman is one of them, specifically the array from https://cgit.freedesktop.org/pixman/tree/pixman/pixman-implementation.c#n66 "eats" whole 384 B. Is there anything pixman could do to lower its consumption of TLS? Because it's only a matter of time when the "static TLS allocation" error will appear again in another complex application. Thanks, Dan _______________________________________________ Pixman mailing list Pixman@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/pixman
