Subject: m68k 2.6.29.1 performance (race in MSG_PEEK)
Date: Fri, 15 May 2009 16:06:51 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090515210650.GD1529@luminet.net> (raw)

All,

By freeing up memory and removing kernel features that I don't need I have managed
to get m68k 2.6.29.1 to throw the following kernel message (first observed in my dmesg):

TCP(fetchmail:5006): Application bug, race in MSG_PEEK

A bit of research showed that it is a known issue:

http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-bugs-dist@lists.debian.org/msg609407.html

I had never seen this race condition under m68k Linux (implying a performance 
improvement was gained)!
