but I suspect it's one of those possibly interfering. Looking at the
patches in question I have no idea how they could do it. I guess if you
can try backing them out it would be helpful. Here are links to the

Thanks Con, I'll try playing with those tomorrow (got no time tonight),
and report back.


Ok, got them all 3 backed out of 2.6.7-mm7 , but that doesn't change a
thing. The JVM still dies when I try to run eclipse.


I can run Eclipse without any problems on 2.6.7-bk20-ck5 + few other not
related patches. Maybe try using non -mm? Try 2.6.7-bk20 and then try
reverting some patches. Maybe there is some other problem in -mm that
gives similar results?


with plain 2.6.7-bk20 I see the issue, same with 2.6.7-mm7. Reverting
http://linux.bkbits.net:8080/linux-2.6/cset@xxxxxx from -mm7 fixes the
issue. I'm currently building 2.6.7-bk20 minus that cset and I'll report
back on the results of that in a few minutes.


2.6.7-bk20 minus the cset works.

Testing with 2.6.8-rc1 and backing out one or both of the changes in the
cset I get these results :
2.6.8-rc1 - vanilla - breaks Java
2.6.8-rc1-jju1 - both changes backed out - works
2.6.8-rc1-jju2 - only first change (sys_rt_sigsuspend) applied - works
2.6.8-rc1-jju3 - only second change (sys_sigaltstack) applied - breaks Java

Looks like a GCC (gcc version 3.4.1 20040702 (Red Hat Linux 3.4.1-2)) screwup:

sys_sigaltstack:
movl 4(%esp), %eax
movl 8(%esp), %edx
movl 56(%esp), %ecx
jmp do_sigaltstack

The offsets should be 4 more, to account for the return address on the stack.

Nevermind, I should have looked more carefully. The offsets are fine in my example. What version of GCC are you using?
