Hi,
I´m using RedHat Enterprise Server 4 Update 3 (kernel 2.6.9-34.ELsmp)
I was listing the contents of /proc/pid/status file and I came up with
a value of:
...
VmLib: 4294948464 kB,
...
Is this a known bug?
the process in question uses a lot of threads ~100 but there are no
memory leaks...
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Marcos David

Ask Red Hat.

Yes, it's known, I sent two patches to fix it
[PATCH] VmLib wrapped: executable brk
[PATCH] VmLib wrapped: mprotect flags
on 28 Nov 2004, and those were included in 2.6.10.
It's just an ugliness in the numbers shown, doesn't affect how the
kernel runs: so Red Hat have not bothered to fix it in their update.
