Package: kernel Version: ? The sources I'm using form libdb contain a patch that says: + * The Linux kernel mmap() semantics are broken : + * + * Under Linux, read only private mappings cause write only and read/write + * opens to fail with errno=ETXTBSY. Shared read only mappings should work + * fine though, but I'm not familiar enough with the code to ascertain that + * a MAP_SHARED mapping would be safe so I use the non-mmap'd version + * instead.
I'd like to remove this patch if it is not needed anymore. Ray -- Cyberspace, a final frontier. These are the voyages of my messages, on a lightspeed mission to explore strange new systems and to boldly go where no data has gone before.
