[PATCH 1/3] Revert "selftests/mm: fix deadlock for fork after pthread_create on ARM"

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This reverts commit e142cc87ac4ec618f2ccf5f68aedcd6e28a59d9d.

fork_event_consumer may be called by other tests that do not initialize
the pthread_barrier, so this approach is not correct.  The subsequent
patch will revert to using atomic_bool instead.
