The Single Unix Specification requires that sem_open() returns ENOSPC when
"there is insufficient space for the creation of the new named semaphore".
Anyway, when we create named semaphores until failure, the error returned is ENOMEM.

It means there is no space on a device. Of course it could mean that the spec is simply inconsistent and that it is meant, for sem_open, to denote missing memory as well. But this is anything but clear. I'll suspend the bug. Somebody needs to file an interpretation request with the Austin group to get this resolved. If you don't want to do this, close the bug since nothing will change. -- What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEW |SUSPENDED http://sources.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=774 ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread
