The following reply was made to PR kern/133144; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Alexander Best <alexbestms@math.uni-muenster.de> To: <bug-followup@FreeBSD.org> Cc: Chagin Dmitry <dchagin@freebsd.org> Subject: Re: kern/133144: [linux] linuxulator 2.6 crashes with nvidias libGL.so.1 Date: Sun, 28 Jun 2009 01:34:23 +0200 (CEST) i talked to zander who is responsible for the freebsd nvidia driver and he said the following about this PR: "the two libnvidia-tls libraries support different TLS models: the one currently shipped with the NVIDIA FreeBSD graphics driver supports the old-style TLS model, the tls/ one the new ELF TLS model. The crashes you were seeing were not due to a problem with the Linux emulation layer. Future NVIDIA FreeBSD graphics driver releases will automatically determine which library to install." so even if the modify_ldt() linux syscall isn't implemented properly, this PR is not related to it. oh...btw: there have been some changes to modify_ldt() in HEAD. i think running the linux test project now passes that syscall. cheers.
