Subject: [PATCH 0/2] jump label updates
Date: Wed, 27 Oct 2010 17:07:08 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1288212485.git.jbaron@redhat.com> (raw)
Hi,
So we finally tracked down the jump label crashes and it turned out that there
was a a bug in the compiler in the implementation of 'asm goto'. As the fix has
not yet been committed yet to gcc, and I don't have a simple test case to
check if the bug has been fixed, we are going to disable jump labels pending
a better test to detect that gcc has been fixed.
The second patch fixes a hang on Geode LX, b/c the no-op probing was done too
early - before the exception tables had even been setup.
thanks,
-Jason
