I don't have any native x86 binaries on my Madison-based testbox, so my test case was to compile a simple program that counted total length of argument strings on an x86 box, and copy it to my ia64 box. So that I wouldn't have to copy over a bunch of libraries too, I compiled it with -static. This is the test case that "hung" my system (re-running it today from /dev/tty1 instead of from an xterm, I see that it actually oopsed in rb_next()). I wasn't even running with a long arglist. Just "*" for my home directory (19 files/directories = ~170 bytes). -Tony My test program. Compile on ia32 box with "cc -static -o args args.c" ---- begin args.c ---- main(int argc, char **argv) { int n; printf("argc = %d\n", argc); n = 0; while (--argc) n += strlen(*++argv); printf("bytes = %d\n", n); } - 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/
