Hi Richard,
I changed a few bits here and there in your patch, but I believe the
biggest problem was that Linux seem to recycle pids faster than it
recycles mm_struct, so we ended up with processes sharing the same
space, and since the pid allocation mechanism was a bit too naive for
multi-threaded applications, I changed it to a bitfield based solution.
I now have an FCSE kernel which seems much more stable (and without the
double mapping either). This is the good news.
The bad news is that I still get mysterious crashes. So, will now
investigate.
Regards.
