not sure if this is a real issue and if it`s UML or loop related - but how is low-memory situations being handled when creating loop devices ?
kernel returns -ENOMEM as an error code if there are no memory left to initialize loop device.
should losetup or dmesg tell "out of memory" if there is not enough memory left ?
It should, as kernel does pass that info back to app. Does losetup check return value of open() syscall? - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
