Re: python stack size

Python has a stack cookie so you probably don't need to worry about it.

That is impossible because tag IDs and tag data are all uint32 types. There are no types for the compiler to check.

Re: DMA on sii3114 on Sam460ex

This is wrong, you can't suppose users to change this. HD/SSD should run at max speed by default not in ancient PIO mode. I can understand why but if we want to attract users we should make this kind of stuff easier. For example OS4 installation should detect a SAM board and run a script which enab...

Re: Network lockups if low memory condition

That is incorrect. The paging was not broken by update 3 but rather fixed by update 3. If it seemed to "work" before it didn't because it was broken. I'm afraid that's not making any sense to me: If I over-fill the RAM disk with large files, then OS4 locks-up. Others also reported finding...

Re: Network lockups if low memory condition

I was under the impression the VM paging was broken by Update 3, such that OS4 tends to lock-up as soon as it runs out of real memory. So this may be nothing to do with Roadshow... That is incorrect. The paging was not broken by update 3 but rather fixed by update 3. If it seemed to "work"...

My guess would be the DHCP bugs which are present in that older copy of Roadshow you guys have. Expect a fix in the next update.

Re: gcc bug with -ggdb?

You should stick to using -gstabs all the time anyway.

I realize it is a tad annoying but not really worth fixing until we upgrade the compiler to the latest GCC version.
