Subject: lvm and locales memory issue
Date: Thu, 18 Feb 2010 10:19:54 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4B7D063A.7070601@redhat.com> (raw)
Hi
As we discussed yesterday at the confcall the problem with mlockall() and way
we cannot easily disable locales, because of posix complaince and
internationalized error message.
How about adding some global{} configure option ?
e.i.: "use_plain_C_locales = 0/1"
defaulting to 0.
Anaconda and eventually system admin who cares about memory might easily
enable it by switching to 1 - it could be slightly more confortable then
writing wrapper scripts around lvm command for the same thing.
The question is how we implement this - either we delay activation of
setlocale until we read config - or we just call setlocale("C"...) just
before mlockall() if this is set by configuration?
Any better idea?
Zdenek
