In-reply-to: Your message of "Tue, 26 Jan 1999 19:06:45 PST." Date: Wed, 27 Jan 1999 11:22:31 +0800 From: Peter Wemm Sender: owner-freebsd-alpha@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Can a couple of the Alpha folks please do me a favor and have a look at the VM_STACK kernel compile option and check that it works for the alpha? It's in a pretty sensitive area (stack growth). It adds a MAP_STACK option for mmap(), primarily for linux threads support. Whether MAP_STACK works on the alpha is less important at the moment than whether the kernel compiles and runs OK. The option needs to be unifdef'ed if we can.
