The SIGKILL part is the odd one, I would assume.. It looks like about half of the commands are failing with SIGKILL even with ulimit -s 8192 and the ulimit -s value did not really change the failure rate that much if at all. SIGSEGV starts showing up only after having limited ulimit -s to quite samll number (see my previous email). > % /usr/bin/time --format="mem %M" ls > /usr/bin/time --format="mem %M" ls > GPATH INSTALL README configure fdisk lib misc-utils schedutils > mem 3232 mem 3296 on my UML setup > % sudo /usr/bin/time --format="mem %M" mount -a > sudo /usr/bin/time --format="mem %M" mount -a > mem 2992 mem 2928 -- Jouni Malinen PGP id EFC895FA -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
