Thanks a lot. I send to a wrong email address last time. Where is the lastest epoll patch that solved the "epoll_ctl(EPOLL_CTL_DEL): failed on fd=197" problem? Is it in squid src tagged with epoll-2.5 in squid CVS? Or, is it in the patch from http://devel.squid-cache.org/cgi-bin/diff2/epoll-2_5.patch?s2_5? sally On 5/11/05, Steven Wilton <swilton@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > I did manage to trace the cause of the "epoll_ctl(EPOLL_CTL_DEL): failed on > fd=197" messages.
