retitle 392649 rtsigio does not work on alpha severity 392649 important found 392649 found 392649 1:7.2.2.dfsg.1-2 thanks
The IRCd is running fine, but when an IRC client intends to connect,
nothing happens (the same symptoms are described in #281234, except
for the kernel messages). I attach the IRCd process to strace and
get the following output.
# strace -p 17222
Process 17222 attached - interrupt to quit

And so on indefinitely...
Here is the output of the IRC client on another host.
00:44 -!- Irssi: Looking up sardaukar
00:44 -!- Irssi: Connecting to sardaukar [10.0.0.9] port 6667
00:44 -!- Irssi: Connection to sardaukar established
And nothing more.
It only appears on alpha and it is probably a kernel bug, because
it works fine on other architectures. Therefore, I am setting the
severity to important.
Cheers,
