It's my own numerical pthread multithreaded application BGMN
(www.bgmn.de). I the past, prior to Phenom and Fedora 9, BGMN worked OK.
Fedora early in 2008, BGMN worked OK (I got a warning message early at
boot time about disabled quit'n'cool). Starting in Autumn, I observed
BGMN to stop accidentally. BGMN uses a master thread and 1...4 slave
threads. On 2...4 slave threads, slave threads communicate using
mutexes. With 1 slave thread, these mutexes leave unused. BGMN did never
stop when using only 1 slave thread. One time, I got accidentally an
error while freeing a mutex. As a workaround, I did set MAX_SPEED
and MIN_SPEED to 2400 in /etc/sysconfig/cpuspeed. That worked,
even with 4 threads the program seems to run properly.
Anyone similar observations?
