[Bug 1446909] Re: pkill kills self when called from C program

I did some extra testing on this bug today. I compiled and installed the latest procps-ng (3.3.10) on Ubuntu 14.04 i386, and it sees the problem: greearb@v-ubuntu-14-04-i386:~$ ./test-pkill System command failed: ERROR: system command "pkill -f my-funky-cmdline" terminated with signal 15 my-

Public bug reported: I have an Ubuntu 14.04 system for arm7l (armhf), and I think I have found a bug in the g++/gcc compiler. I am expecting to see 'char c' below to end up as a negative number, but as you can see, it does not. x86 system shows the negative number as expected. Anyone have any i

Here is the /etc/init.d/umountroot file. The main trick to properly unmounting aufs root is this: mount -n -o remount,noxino / || echo "Remount noxino / failed: $?" # This next fails, but over-all, things work, so leaving it in in case # it has some partial benefit. mount -n -o remount,mod:/cow=r

Well, I think I finally have this working...mainly due to lots of help from the aufs maintainer and mailing list. Will attach the /etc/init.d/umountrootfs and casper initrd scripts (for Ubuntu 12.04). You have to re-spin the live-cd initrd to get the casper changes in place. The umountrootfs ju

Public bug reported: If you crash your pendrive system, casper-rw can be corrupted. casper should check using fsck before mounting casper-rw to catch this and allow users to fix the problem if it cannot be fixed automatically. Here's a patch that I think will do the trick for the ext2/3/4 file-sy

I built a custom 12.04 with some added kernel patches and added a few packages (and removed others). It generally seems to work fine, but at some point, I started seeing errors about /dev/loop1. It seems this is the casper-rw file, and it is not checked by fsck on startup. Why not? I put the us
