[Bug 1081734] Re: malloc hangs when ltp mallocstress is run repeatedly
After significant abuse on several x86 machines, I was finally able to reproduce this with the old libc6 version, but continue to be unable to reproduce with the versions in precise/quantal-proposed. Given that no one's found any regressions with this patch, and the few testers who had deadlocks on the old version couldn't reproduce with the new, I'm marking this verification-done. ** Tags removed: verification-needed ** Tags added: verification-done -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1081734 Title: malloc hangs when ltp mallocstress is run repeatedly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eglibc/+bug/1081734/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The ARM-specific futex issue and this one don't relate, no, the fact that you can trigger both from the same testsuite does muddy the waters a bit, though. Testing this one on x86 is likely the best way to isolate it from the lowlevellock fix, since that fix only applied to arm, parisc, and sparc, but didn't touch x86 (while the fix for this bug hit all arches). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1081734 Title: malloc hangs when ltp mallocstress is run repeatedly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eglibc/+bug/1081734/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hello bhs, or anyone else affected, Accepted eglibc into precise-proposed. The package will build now and be available at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eglibc/2.15-0ubuntu10.4 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository. Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users. If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .
