Your "it" is ambiguous and does not actually clarify the situation. > >> - print '#endif /* GLX_USE_TLS */' > > > > Isn't this going to allow a TLS-enabled Mesa to run on a > > non-TLS-capable kernel? > > Have you seen one in the last 5 years? > > That was the point of my "going forward" question. A few months ago I wondered why TLS wasn't enabled by default. In the ensuing discussion, it came to light that some popular platforms still don't support TLS. As you say, I'd guess it's hard to find a *Linux* system w/o TLS support. That said, it does seem a bit silly to *remove* such a feature; maybe it'll be usable on other platforms soon enough. Why not report a bug to your other GL vendors, complaining that they don't include a kernel ABI requirement tag? -tom ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SOLARIS 10 is the OS for Data Centers - provides features such as DTrace, Predictive Self Healing and Award Winning ZFS.
