Package: libc6 Version: 2.6-2 Severity: normal according to it's man page, pthread_rwlock_unlock should return EPERM, if the current thread doesn't hold the lock.
the actual behavior is different, though: see: #include "pthread.h" #include "errno.h" #include "assert.h" int main(void) { pthread_rwlock_t rwlock; pthread_rwlock_init(&rwlock, NULL); pthread_rwlock_rdlock(&rwlock); pthread_rwlock_rdlock(&rwlock); pthread_rwlock_unlock(&rwlock); pthread_rwlock_unlock(&rwlock); assert( pthread_rwlock_unlock(&rwlock) == EPERM ); pthread_rwlock_destroy(&rwlock); } -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (10, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22.1-rt1 (SMP w/2 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages libc6 depends on: ii libgcc1 1:4.2.1-0 GCC support library libc6 recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
