I'm sure that can't be intentional. According to http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/7908799/xsh/limits.h.html (or at least that's how I read it), it shouldn't be assumed that PTHREAD_STACK_MIN will be set to a value that allows using libc calls, the standard even says it's valid to set it to 0. So I think the proposed patch (or a variation of it), is the right solution, we shouldn't rely on PTHREAD_STACK_MIN being set to a sane value. IMHO the only thing we should use PTHREAD_STACK_MIN for is to check that the value we are passing to pthread_attr_setstacksize is valid. _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xen.org/xen-devel
