Alright, this went much as expected. First it took an eternity to compile (SMP support can't come soon enough), and second, the testuite has brought the system into a bad state and didn't complete. In particular: it managed to terminate my SSH session several times (I don't know how), and eventually it ran into that networking stack deadlock (the only way out of which seems to be reboot-hurd on the console). So I still can not run the testsuite on my end. But the tests that did run seem to mostly have worked. There were some failures here and there (I don't know which ones are expected), but nothing as bad as every single program crashing because it starts using TLS before it's set up due to already having switched to libc.so functions. Could you please point me to a specific test case (and not just "run the whole thing") that started failing because of this change, and teach me how to run just that one? I have read [0], but that says, "To test just one test you have to have already run the entire testsuite", which is a non-starter. [0]: https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Testing/Testsuite#Testing_just_one_test Side note, I don't know why it's glibc's test suite that brings the system to its knees. glib's, which is also quite comprehensive, completes just fine. Would it have been easy for me to run the full test suite, I would surely do that before submitting any patches. But it's not. Sergey
