We now know which glib versions allow USB automounts and which fail to do so. The question is: what has changed between these versions? The bug itself is probably not in glib at all, but knowing what code has changed would at least put us on the right track.
In the process of doing an automount, hal calls the function g_io_channel_read_line() within glib. That function in turn calls the function g_io_channel_read_line_backend() to do the actual work. The function g_io_channel_read_line_backend() in turn calls the function g_io_channel_fill_buffer(). Any change in any of these functions is suspect. As far as I can tell by reading the code, these functions are behaving as documented. However, they may no longer be compatible with the operation expected by hal. The compiler, or optimizer, may also be responsible. -- -Gary Mills- -refurb- -Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada- _______________________________________________ oi-dev mailing list [email protected] https://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/oi-dev
