IRC [12:33] <cbowman> Dossy: I fixed the last major memory leak that I was seeing in AOLServer4. It was from the same keep-alive socket handling code that I'd sent a fix about before. The previous fix only cleaned up in a certain circumstance that I had initially believed to be the only case that could cause that.

IRC [19:28] <MzOzD> hello
IRC [19:28] <MzOzD> it seems i have a problem with AOL server and glibc.
IRC [19:29] <MzOzD> libnsd.so: undefined reference to `pthread_kill_other_threads_np'
IRC [19:29] <MzOzD> collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
IRC [19:29] <MzOzD> make[1]: *** [nsd] Error 1
IRC [19:29] <MzOzD> make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/.work/aol/src/aolserver-4.0.10/nsd'
IRC [19:29] <MzOzD> make: *** [all] Error 1
IRC [19:29] <MzOzD> any ideas ?
IRC [19:31] <Dossy> MzOzD - linux, 2.6 kernel?
IRC [19:31] <MzOzD> Dossy: yep
IRC [19:31] <Dossy> MzOzD: what version of glibc? what platform/arch?
IRC [19:31] <MzOzD> if i comment the nsd/unix.c relevant sections it compiles and links
IRC [19:31] <Dossy> nod
IRC [19:31] <MzOzD> glibc 2.3.3 / i386smp

IRC [19:32] <MzOzD> the function is there
IRC [19:32] <MzOzD> i don't know what's wrong
IRC [19:32] <MzOzD> the libthread.so has it there :)
IRC [19:32] <Dossy> i know
IRC [19:32] <Dossy> libthread.so, or libpthread.so ?
IRC [19:32] <MzOzD> sorry libpthread.so
IRC [19:33] <MzOzD> so is it ok to remove the function ?
IRC [19:34] <Dossy> just the call to that, yeah
IRC [19:34] <Dossy> interesting, on my system, I see:
IRC [19:34] <Dossy> /lib/tls/libpthread.so.0:0000abc0 t __pthread_kill_other_threads_np
IRC [19:34] <Dossy> interesting how it's now prefixed with two "__"
IRC [19:35] <Dossy> However, /lib/libpthread.so.0 has:
IRC [19:35] <MzOzD> what's your OS / ARCH ?
IRC [19:35] <Dossy> /lib/libpthread.so.0:00008260 W pthread_kill_other_threads_np
IRC [19:35] <Dossy> i386 up
