Thanks for this new release. I have tested it and I am able to run the tst-cancel4, tst-cancelx4, tst-cancel5 and tst-cancel5 tests without problem with eatmydata. Note however that sync() is not a cancellation point, so the call to pthread_testcancel() should be removed there. That said, there are still two tests failing when run under eatmydata, tst-key1 and tst-key4, though I haven't been able to understand what is the problem. I have attached the later one, so that someone can debug the issue. -- Aurelien Jarno GPG: 1024D/F1BCDB73 [email protected] http://www.aurel32.net
