Hi,
I am getting a general protection fault with an error code 0 in a thread
(lightweight process) created using pthread_create().... I checked out that
this is an exception when a double fault occurs... What is a double fault?
Also this happens after a page fault... but several page faults are
successful before this... so the reason might not be a page fault.
Does anyone know what all are the conditions on which the general
protection fault occurs? It is generated in hardware.. so i couldnt really
find out.
Thanks in advance,
Asmita
