I would ask the rarian developers:

http://rarian.freedesktop.org/

My barely-educated guess is that Gnome was doing a routine re-index of 
its help files and and the app got bored and decided to dereference a 
NULL pointer for fun.  Your desktop documentation index may be 
incomplete or corrupt.  Try not to panic.

the fixed phy used to have "specific" bus bound stuff 
but I've reworked this point.

This appears to have happened because fixed_mdio_register_device() (or
phy_device_create) didn't suitably initialise phy_device.dev.

But I don't immediately see why this doesn't affect all phy drivers. 
Presumably it's the fixed driver which is at fault.  Jeff, how is this
supposed to work?

clone and waitpid syscall: return strange error

2007-04-16 Thread yantux
Help my please.

Question about "interactive" clone and waitpid syscalls.

Describe.
Process was create five a process using clone syscall.
Two clone calling with CLONE_THREAD, other three without CLONE_THREAD.

After then process was calling waitpid(getpid, , __WNOTHREAD),
then it must not checkout process, that was created by clone with 
CLONE_THREAD, is not it?

Questions.
Where define thread_info struct?
Where define list_head struct?

I right understand, that in kernel/fork.c, copy_process() function add process 
to thread group?
//1171 string number
list_add_tail_rcu(>thread_group, >group_leader->thread_group);

And do_wait contain next_thread too, but waitpid(getpid(), , __WALL) it 
is good, but really waitpid syscall not return info about thread, because 
return error "no child process".
I sure that is not right, or I delusion? I waiting from waitpid info about 
thread, but not error.

Best regards,
yantux.
