3381 teardown race (cmoller)
-should teardown be changed to be more robust
-what is the scope of the problem?
-kills are asynchronous, so there is a race
-not utrace dependent
-buggy behavior is in buggy kernel
-no need for teardown to handle buggy kernel
-teardown needs to handle asynchronization
-frysk fires off kill/sigkill
-don't use nohang, use wait without nohang
-waitpid works for attached or unattached process
-frysk teardown does kill/detach/waitpid
-detach means you are waiting on a process that isn't yours
-FC6 has SIGKILL bug because SIGKILL isn't specially handled
-hang bug may be a bug
3500 (Mark)
-possibly not a kernel issue but a timing issue
3492 (Nurdin)
-in progress
-stamping out bugs
Command Line Utilities
-fcore writes all segments and gcore doesn't, otherwise identical.
-FP regs are done.
-next up is static analysis
-how to handle a corefile in frysk
-handle as part of current Host, just dead OR
-create a new Host
-software layers will get registers and memory from the corefile
instead of the task
-32 on 64 with bytebuffer is a glitch
-what about 2 level byte buffer for 32 on 64?
-libelf bindings testings
-would be nice to use properties to get configuration info into frysk
source window
-Mike working on bugs
-line stepping test
-Rick on jdom test cases
-finding the right pieces can use $DATADIR
-dejagnu support added for "expect" testing
breakpoints
-Tim looking at Mike's stepping support to get events from core for hpd
-should this go into frysk.rt?
-look at gdb sig* testcases for edge cases
Open source java discussion
Changing the way observers are added
-currently observers are added explicitly
-is it better to add explicitly or implicitly?
