process_a(server) process_b(client) semget() <-seems you choose to set it here --------------- <1> -------------------- semctl(SETVAL) semop() semget() setctl(IP_STAT) for(;;) { check until sem_otime > 0 } And assume that schedule() happenes at <1>, then sem_otime will >0 in process_b's for(;;), but at that time, the process_a's semctl() hasn't been called yet. > > -Mike > > . > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
