(b) Find people from each of the major distributions to comment on this issue. Asking them the pointed question "Would you mind if the memory footprint of all applications that use TLS goes up by the size of the static TLS in order to provide assurances that your application will have some reasonable amount of thread stack not consumed by the TLS data?" I suggest: Jeff Law (Red Hat), Aurelien Jarno (Debian), Andreas Jaeger (SuSE), Ubuntu (??), Mike Frysinger (Gentoo), ... I'm here to guide you, but this kind of work needs to come from the ground up and from the people most interested in seeing this fixed. We need volunteers like you on the product to help fix these kinds of issues, but it does require some work to reach consensus :-) -- Configure bugmail: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
