After about two years of turmoil in the Java, kernel, and glibc worlds,
we *finally* appear to have our stuff working with native threads on
SMP.
The winning combination is
blackdown 1.2.2RC4
redhat 6.2
glibc-2.1.3 <--- **VERY** important
It absolutely doesn't work on redhat 6.1. We're talking seg faults. I
don't know what it is that makes our use of Java special, but I am more
than a little suspicious of anyone who says SMP and native threads work
fine on their RH6.1 system. Mandrake 7.1 is also glibc-2.1.3, will be
trying that soon.
I've never tried the SUN jdk1.2 for linux. Principles and versioning
aside, they explicitly do not support native threads on SMP.
Many thanks to the Blackdown team for persevering in such a tumultuous
climate with such a complex system.
