I have made some more tests. First the package looks ok, but it does not work because the /usr/lib/tls directory is used inconditionnaly. This is because ld.so actually does not actually check for TLS hwcap (which does not really exists), but only check the OS ABI. All libc6 libraries in this directory are tagged "OS ABI: Linux 2.6.0". I will try to have a look for a patch to add this note to libstdc6++ Then I have made some more tests on all Debian architectures: Architecture MIN_KERNEL NPTL flavour TLS status ----------------------------------------------------------------- amd64 2.6.0 No TLS working alpha 2.2.0 No TLS working arm 2.2.0 No TLS not supported hppa 2.2.0 No TLS not supported i386 2.2.0 Yes TLS fails on 2.4 kernels ia64 2.2.0 Yes TLS working m68k 2.2.0 No TLS not supported mips 2.2.0 No TLS not supported mipsel 2.2.0 No TLS not supported powerpc 2.2.0 NPTL flavour TLS working s390 2.4.1 NPTL flavour TLS working sparc 2.4.18 No TLS working On 2.4 kernels, the linuxthread flavour which does not support TLS on i386 is used. On 2.6 kernels, the NPTL flavour is used. So it looks like this flavour is actually only needed on i386. Bye, Aurelien -- .''`.
