  | |  | nptl issue with updated glibc/kernel | nptl issue with updated glibc/kernel 2004-04-01 - By Tobias Speckbacher
Back I just finished building a kickstart server for AS3.
This system has not been upgraded to the new kernel and glibc *yet*.
I downloaded all relevant packages in the AS3 errata including
RHSA-2003:334, which updates glibc from 2.3.2-95.3 to 2.3.2-95.3.
I build glibc from src.rpm on the kickstart server and integrated it
into my kickstart image.
So now I have 2 systems:
Kickstart-server:
# uname -a
Linux kickstart 2.4.21-4.ELsmp #1 SMP Fri Oct 3 17:52:56 EDT 2003 i686
i686 i386 GNU/Linux
# getconf GNU_LIBPTHREAD_VERSION
NPTL 0.60
Server created through kickstart process:
# uname -a
Linux localhost.localdomain 2.4.21-9.ELsmp #1 SMP Thu Jan 8 17:08:56 EST
2004 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
# getconf GNU_LIBPTHREAD_VERSION
linuxthreads-0.10
My assumption was that the default threading library would be ntpl,
however this is only true on the kickstart server itself which is a
clean install from CD.
Needless to say I am less than thrilled to see plain ole linuxthreads on
what is supposed to become a production system.
I have not tried yet to use the binary rpm packages supplied on the rhn
site, but one would think the result should be the same.
If anyone has run across this, or has any idea how I ended up with
linuxthreads rather than nptl threads please enlighten me.
Thanks in advance,
-Tobias
