#806: Bus Errors when /dev/shm is (almost) full ----------------------+----------------------------------------------------- Reporter: raboof | Owner: lennart Type: defect | Status: closed Milestone: | Component: core Resolution: wontfix | Keywords: bus crash shm ----------------------+-----------------------------------------------------
Comment(by raboof): I fully agree that aborting is a sensible thing to do when /dev/shm space runs out, and that adding a SIGBUS handler is too intrusive. I do think it would be good, if possible, to give the user some indication that this is what's going wrong. Just raising SIGBUS and leaving the user wondering what happened is rather puzzling. I don't quite understand what exactly causes the SIGBUS - is it possible to identify this situation beforehand, to show an error message somewhere before the SIGBUS is signalled? Or it this handled entirely at the kernel side of things? -- Ticket URL: <http://pulseaudio.org/ticket/806#comment:3> PulseAudio <http://pulseaudio.org/> The PulseAudio Sound Server _______________________________________________ pulseaudio-tickets mailing list pulseaudio-tickets@mail.0pointer.de https://tango.0pointer.de/mailman/listinfo/pulseaudio-tickets
