+ <teythoon> braunr: I'm investigating this port leak of mine
+ <teythoon> well, I thought I introduced one
+ <teythoon> but I'm not too sure anymore
+ <teythoon> the setting is this
+ <teythoon> i start an active tmpfs translator, bind it to foo
+ <teythoon> then, i create foo/bar with a passive translator entry
+ <teythoon> i access foo/bar, the passive translator is started
+ <teythoon> my test suite now covers several methods of making that
+ translator go away
+ <teythoon> killing it with 15 or 9 is fine, i.e. does not make the first
+ tmpfs leak ports
+ <teythoon> however, doing settrans -g foo/bar does for some reason
+ <teythoon> i think my code is fine, i spent considerable time on tracking
+ down this problem, always thinking that i must have introduced it
+ <teythoon> but another thing just cought my eye, the first tmpfs translator
+ says this when i do settrans -g foo/bar:
+ <teythoon> tmpfs/tmpfs: pthread_create: Resource temporarily unavailable
+ <teythoon> could it be that a no-sender notification is ignored b/c the
+ handler thread failed to start ?
+ <braunr> teythoon: i saw this pthread error too

+ <gg0> remounting tmpfs doesn't work if in use
+ http://paste.debian.net/plain/80937/
+ <gg0> you will also get a pthread_create: Resource temporarily unavailable
+ <youpi> iirc the pthread_create warning happens for any kind of translator
