Category: None Group: v0.8.x (devel) Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: sleep crashing with "Assertion `0 <= seconds' failed." Initial Comment: While researching bug 2748015 (http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2748015&group_id=98788&atid=622063), we came along another problem with the 0.74-rc1 and 0.8.0 code base. When starting command "while true; do sleep 0.1; done" and starting command "openssl genrsa -out /dev/null 4096" in another session the sleep command in the first session aborts occasionally with error: sleep: xnanosleep.c:67: xnanosleep: Assertion `0 <= seconds' failed. Aborted This problem can even be reproduced when you start the different commands as different unprivileged users. This seems like the kernel is changing the memory of random processes. Tested versions: colinux 0.8.0: suffers this bug colinux 0.7.4-rc1: suffers this bug colinux 0.7.3: does not suffer this bug Test system: AMD AthlonXP 3800+ Windows XP SP3 + all updates to date Guest OS is ArchLinux (ver 2009.02) (using only prebuild packages from the ArchLinux repositories) While researching this further, I discovered this thread which describes a bug in the User Mode Linux kernel almost a year ago. http://fixunix.com/openssl/518688-re-uml-devel-dev-random-problems-fp-registers-corruption.html I have not been able to link this to a bug on the UML Sourceforge.net development page.
