------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2007-04-29 07:18 ------- Well, there is a long story in 5534. take a look if you are interested. Basically, Notify operator of AML interpreter needs to execute some arbitrary C-code, which may call AML interpreter again. latest HP notebooks were known to cause a deadlock if we schedule notify execution after the code that issues it. Thus the patch you just applied was invented (it executes notify on separate thread). At some point it was desided that having another thread is dangerous and executing notify inplace (thus having several AML interpreters on single stack) is less dangerous. Thus the patch you just reverted. In your case it seem to do stack overflow, which was predicted as one of the dangers of this patch. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.
