Hi all,
I was coding some stuff under a 4.2 box of mine here earlier today and I
seem to have hit a very strange bug, I was wondering if anyone could help
me out here.
I wrote a bunch of pthread enabled code, when I tried to run the program,
after I compiled it with -pthread (I had to with the threading code in
there), it segfaulted, so I ran it through gdb, and it was segfaulting on
malloc(). So I dug around some more, and eventually I tried changing that
single line to a c++ new() call, no more problems...
So for the sake of testing, I commented out all the code that needed
pthreads, and compiled it again, without the -pthread flag, unchanged
except for a function that I commented out, with the original malloc() call, no
problems again.
Then, with that function commented out, exactly was I had compiled it a
few seconds earlier where it worked, I recompiled it, using the -pthread
flag again, ran it, and sure enough it segfaults on the first malloc() it
reaches.
Is there a bug in the pthreads, or have I possibly missed something in
the code that I need in there to make it work with -pthread?
Any help or suggestions would be MUCH appreciated
Thanks
Andrew Alston
