Hallo, in /sys/conf/NOTES there is a comment | # Use real implementations of the aio_* system calls. There are numerous | # stability and security issues in the current aio code that make it | # unsuitable for inclusion on machines with untrusted local users. | options VFS_AIO Are there still problems with aio? I only found http://xforce.iss.net/xforce/xfdb/7693, but no advisory or other hint that this was fixed (I think I must have missed that somehow). And some closed PRs about fixed problems. Do these affect aio.ko as well? Thanks, Nicolas -- http://www.rachinsky.de/nicolas
