mcheck(3): add a notice that the current implementation is not thread-safe

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

 



Hello Michael,

mcheck is known to be unusable for quite some time with multi-threaded
applications:

	https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=9939

Until yesterday (including many hours of bug-hunting) this fact was not
known to me, thus, I would like to suggest to add a note in the mcheck(3) manual
page (and probably in the GLIBC documentation as well). I think one sentence in
the NOTES section should suffice.

Thanks in advance!

Best regards
Tolga Dalman
