SubjectRe: [patch] threading fix, tid-2.5.47-A3
From
Date
The new definition of the clone flags is binary incompatible with older
2.5 kernels.
How about this instead:
#define CLONE_PARENT_SETTID 0x00100000
#define CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID 0x00200000
#define CLONE_DETACHED 0x00400000
#define CLONE_UNTRACED 0x00800000
#define CLONE_CHILD_SETTID 0x01000000

> asmlinkage void schedule_tail(task_t *prev)
> {
> finish_arch_switch(this_rq(), prev);
Maybe finish_arch_switch should only be called if CONFIG_SMP ||
CONFIG_PREEMPT, like what happened without this patch?

How about failing if put_user fails?
