Hi, it looks like the patch submitted for this bug got lost somewhere between upstream CVS and Debian source. I'm looking at the source for glibc 2.3.1-8, and it seems that the patch never got applied. Here is the result of "grep -nr SHMLBA */bits" in glibc-2.3.1/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux:
alpha/bits/shm.h:31:#define SHM_RND 020000 /* round attach address to SHMLBA */ alpha/bits/shm.h:39:#define SHMLBA (__getpagesize ()) hppa/bits/shm.h:32:#define SHM_RND 020000 /* round attach address to SHMLBA */ ia64/bits/shm.h:31:#define SHM_RND 020000 /* round attach address to SHMLBA */ ia64/bits/shm.h:39:#define SHMLBA (1024 * 1024) mips/bits/shm.h:31:#define SHM_RND 020000 /* round attach address to SHMLBA */ mips/bits/shm.h:39:#define SHMLBA (__getpagesize ()) powerpc/bits/shm.h:31:#define SHM_RND 020000 /* round attach address to SHMLBA */ powerpc/bits/shm.h:39:#define SHMLBA (__getpagesize ()) s390/bits/shm.h:32:#define SHM_RND 020000 /* round attach address to SHMLBA */ s390/bits/shm.h:40:#define SHMLBA (__getpagesize ()) sparc/bits/shm.h:32:#define SHM_RND 020000 /* round attach address to SHMLBA */ sparc/bits/shm.h:40:#define SHMLBA (__getpagesize ()) x86_64/bits/shm.h:31:#define SHM_RND 020000 /* round attach address to SHMLBA */ x86_64/bits/shm.h:39:#define SHMLBA (__getpagesize ()) I took a closer look at hppa/bits/shm.h and saw that the patch was NOT applied, at least not after the #define SHM_UNLOCK line which appears in the preceding context of the patch. The relevant context of shm.h is as follows: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- /* Commands for `shmctl'. */ #define SHM_LOCK 11 /* lock segment (root only) */ #define SHM_UNLOCK 12 /* unlock segment (root only) */ /* Type to count number of attaches. */ typedef unsigned long int shmatt_t; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- As you can see, the patch lines are missing. HTH. T -- There are three kinds of people in the world: those who can count, and those who can't.
