retitle 629184 fifo translators don't die thanks To reproduce, create and use 1024 names pipes. System will crash with failed assertion in question or ipc_task_init panic. e.g. You might reproduce it by rebuilding gnash package with --with-swfdec-testsuite configure option. It'd create, use and remove many fifos but translators would remain present until limit is reached.
Workaround (thanks braunr): rebuild gnumach increasing TASK_MAX. 2048 will suffice to get a complete build. Bigger values won't hurt. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
