Geert, in case there'll be further changes in the NPTL patch,
would you like me submit full patch against original tree or only
the incremental difference?
Ping.
Geert, did you have a chance to look over the patch from Oct. 2
2009?
I've done a lot of testing since then and TLS/NPTL support on
m68k/ColdFire is now stable enough to have no unexpected failures on
binutils, gcc, g++, libstdc++ and glibc testsuites.
Nice work. I'm looking forward to eglibc patches so I can build a
current toolchain.
We [CodeSourcery] have just updated all of our toolchains, and the
GNU/Linux toolchain is based on EGLIBC 2.10 and has well tested TLS/NPTL
support. If you are targeting ColdFire you can simply download the
toolchain at <http://www.codesourcery.com/sgpp/lite/coldfire>.
At the moment I'm more interested in the m68k toolchain, particularly for
debian. But thanks for the link, I was unaware of the free download.
I suppose you can't really backport to eglibc 2.10 until the siginfo
question is resolved. It appears from the list traffic that the
consensus is to adopt the generic struct layout here. Is that the
solution that you've used in testing?
I'm not sure if any parts of the m68k kernel port depend on the custom
layout of siginfo, so I've only fixed the pieces which I'm sure are
wrong. I.e, I've been testing with this
<http://marc.info/?l=linux-m68k&m=125447365311948&w=2> patch.
If so, can you send the patches you been testing?
All the patches are in the mailing lists.
