On Friday I filed this bugzilla because at least on my ia64 box, newrole hangs when run on a serial console. Might also hang a regular serial port but I'm not sure. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=228102
The short summary is that on my system, newrole is hanging in the open when its trying to relabel the tty. It will also hang when it reopens stdin, stdout and stderr. If I change the opens to have the O_NONBLOCK flag, it works. I don't know if that's the right solution though. I assume what I'm seeing on my serial console has something to do with the way the agetty has configured the port. George, are you seeing the same thing? -- ljk -- redhat-lspp mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-lspp
