Hi, The F_SETOWN_EX support is officially out with the release of 2.6.32.
I am glad this problem is finally solved. But there is a small catch. During the review process, people pointed out that the values used for the new fcntl() commands were conflicting with existing commands on i386. Thus, they were changed. I have updated both libpfm and the 2.6.30 perfmon GIT tree to match upstream. The following changes were made: -#define F_SETOWN_EX 12 -#define F_GETOWN_EX 13 +#define F_SETOWN_EX 15 +#define F_GETOWN_EX 16 -#define F_OWNER_GID 2 +#define F_OWNER_PGRP 2 Given that those constant are not yet in libc nor kernel-headers, most likely they were hardcoded into applications. The change requires those applications to be updated. Recompilation is NOT enough. Please update your code if you were already using this new feature. Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Join us December 9, 2009 for the Red Hat Virtual Experience, a free event focused on virtualization and cloud computing.
