Hi,
I am porting something from to glibc
from the BSD library, and it deals closely with the
nptl library.
So while doing this I downloaded the glibc-2.7 src
and installed it on a fedora-core machine with x86_64
arch and wrote a program which creates a thread and
the thread subsequently does a backtrace.
The problem is that the backtrace is fine till the clone call
but the backtrace function shows the clone function being called
infintely kinda, I mean when I set the size of the backtrace to 100,
it shows the clone function being called 96 times ... which is wierd,
so I wanted to know whether its a bug in backtrace in glibc-2.7 for x86_64
or there so simple solution to prevent this.
Cheers,
Vinu Rajashekhar.
