Description Benny Pedersen 2005-12-29 07:40:23 UTC
/usr/bin/mlmmj-sub[28368]: subscriberfuncs.c:61: Could not mmap fd: Invalid argument
Comment 1 Andrea Barisani (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-12-29 10:35:28 UTC
What version of mlmmj are you using and on what architecture? We need info here.
Comment 2 Mads Martin Joergensen 2005-12-29 11:33:16 UTC
It's completely harmless, and should be one of those warnings only emitted with
extra debug info turned on.

Speaking of debuginfo Andrea--didn't you have a patch to consolidate logging for me? ;-)

my emerge info
Comment 4 Benny Pedersen 2005-12-29 13:05:36 UTC
its unstable in gentoo so i use 1.2.9
Comment 5 Andrea Barisani (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-01-02 08:16:25 UTC
I'm getting this with 2.6.14 but not with 2.6.11, could you please try with a
older kernel if you have one handy and see if it's the same for you. We are
trying to track down the problem now that we know that somehow is kernel related.
Comment 6 Benny Pedersen 2006-01-03 00:48:54 UTC
i cant build kernel 2.6.11 anymore in gentoo, and devfs is gone since 2.6.13

oldest 2.6 is 12-r9 i can build that if it will run without devfs
Comment 7 Andrea Barisani (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-01-03 00:51:54 UTC
2.6.11 / 2.6.12 runs without problems without devfs.
Comment 8 Benny Pedersen 2006-01-03 08:31:05 UTC
builded 2.6.12-r9 kernel, and mlmmj do well without mmap problems

mmap patch

This patch should fix the problem. Can somebody test this please?

I'll try to add it in our ebuild next week.
Comment 10 Andrea Barisani (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-05-20 12:10:32 UTC
commited mlmmj-1.2.11-r1 with the patch.
