Log:
 Implement an approximation of Linux MADV_DONTNEED semantics.

Hi,

I've updated from r360373 to r362771. When I now try to start some Steam games I get a new error message:
linux: pid 80394 (ThreadPoolSingl): possibly incorrect MADV_DONTNEED

There are several different processes with this message. What needs to be done to determine the "possibily incorrect" part?

FWIW, I’m seeing those messages when running Python regression tests (python3.6 -m test -vW -x test_socket), although it doesn’t seem to break anything.

There are two possibilities:
 1) There is no issue, and the message is not needed and it should be removed.
2) There may be an issue, and it needs to be fixed. In this case it would be interesting to know what the issue is, and maybe also to know how to detect if a particular program runs into the issue.

Bye,
Alexander.
