Bug #1003
Updated by tuxillo over 11 years ago
Qt 4.4 integrates QT Concurrent [1] template library which provides
high-level and very easy to use API for writing multi-threaded programs.
The problem is that all these programs crash (segfault) rather "reliably"
with libthread_xu while there is no single problem with libc_r. I even
managed to deadlock whole machine with one example program, but can not
repeat it for now (I have single desktop at the moment I need to work
with ;).
I made static binaries from trivial example program you can download
here - http://leaf.dragonflybsd.org/~hasso/qt44-threaded-tests.tar.bz2.
runfunction-lr is compiled with libc_r, runfunction-xu with libthread_xu.
runfunction-xu crashing backtrace is always the same:
