I start up UML 2.4.14 and see that the host threads representing UML processes do not die when complete. I get an ever increasing number of [linux] lines in ps listing. kill -9 has no effect. Removing the kernel/exit.c patch @ line 539, this behavior goes away. I am running a UP kernel if that makes any difference. This may be a dup - I didn't see my original message on the archive. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
