Bug#512337: linux-2.6: One GNU libc test fails on a Xen kernel
Package: linux-2.6
Version: 2.6.18.dfsg.1-23etch1
Severity: important
When using a Xen kernel (in a Dom0 or a DomU), the following test fails:
- tst-tls4.out, Error 1
This flavor of the GNU libc is not build for Xen, so the kernel is doing
"4gb seg fixup, process". It seems this is not done correctly, given
that the running code finally segfault. This test works perfectly when
building the Xen flavor of the GNU libc. It also works perfectly on a
non-Xen kernel.
Given that Xen is used on the i386 experimental build daemon, I think
this is an important bug.
