Hi dear list, I have to make run openvpn on on my custom board based on a MCF5272C3 having only 4MB RAM. But there is not enough RAM to launch openvpn when I execute kernel from RAM with a RAM ROMfs. So I'm trying to execute kernel (2.6) from ROM with ROM mtd partion. The first issue I have enco

[uClinux-dev] CONFIG_USER_BUSYBOX_MD5SUM breaks pthreads?

2008-06-13 Thread Wolf, Josef
Hello, I use uClinux-dist-20051014 for quite a while now and it worked great so far. Now I decided to activate md5sum utility in busybox. With this, I get problems with pthreads. For some reason, only the first four invocations of pthread_create() are successful. The fifth invocation simply ha

I may create a uclinux.git on git.kernel.org as well, if it looks like that might be useful. Would it be appropriate to merge/move the nios2 branch Thomas is maintaining (and that sometimes suffers from bandwidth problems of the hosting server) ? -Michael

[uClinux-dev] Migrating from EB40 uC to AT91SAM7SE uC slab allocation question.

2008-06-13 Thread rwarner
Hi, I'm experiencing an odd issue with the slab allocator during kmem_cache_init(). The memory map between the two systems is 95% identical. I based my original work from the EB40 kernel and have the systems configured the same through 'make menuconfig'. Observing the kmem_cache_init() on

Hi Greg, If I did a uclinux.git it would be for more general non-architecture uclinux (non-MMU) changes. It would be wonderful to have to non-arch uclinux.git. It would work better that the patch set on uclinux.org. We can learn the change log, which was missing before. Something like ni

Hi Is slab memory management schema only for uC's with a cache (L1, L2, etc)? If yes, is the only option for uC's without a cache is slob memory management? tia - bob warner ___ uClinux-dev mailing list uClinux-dev@uclinux.org http://mailman.ucli
