The 9.1 dist has a problem with the mlockall call. Actually in all 2.6 kernels this function is broken. However, I would have expected that SuSE would fix this before "forcing" us to use the 2.6 kernel. I'm disappointed that 9.1 was released with a kernel in this condition. This call is a fundamental thing in any soft or hard real time application. Is there any hope of SuSE helping the kernel people fix this shortcoming of the 2.6 kernel. Is there anyone that knows of a fix to this problem? Our company has been shipping copies of SuSE with it's product line since 7.3 and now we can not use SuSE 9.1 because of this kernel bug.
I've filled out a feedback report to SuSE.....
Did you also report this to kernel.org? -- Ken Schneider unix user since 1989 linux user since 1994 SuSE user since 1998 (5.2)
