I confirm that, and I confirm both me and Jeff thought vanilla 2.6.16 has TLS support.
However, 2.6.16-bs *does* have TLS support (same code as 2.6.17), and that's the cause of the confusion. > > What's your host? > It's still the same stock Debian sarge with a 2.4.27 kernel. That will never support TLS on the guest. Guest NPTL support relies on host NPTL support (doing otherwise ranges from difficult to impossible and we've decided not to do it). The fact that your Debian 3.1 image uses TLS and still works is accidental - it should not, and a program actually using NPTL will *probably* fail. However it depends on glibc version (some glibc version react well to not working TLS kernel support and use the 2.4 kernel interface; this includes Debian 3.1 since a certain glibc upgrade but no Fedora release). > I'm SSH'ing into it and boot the UML binary without any special parameters. > Does the host's threading implementation have any influence? > > Josef -- Inform me of my mistakes, so I can keep imitating Homer Simpson's "Doh!".
