Re: Not able to generate race condition... please help

Yes to some extent ... I have already done experimenting on changing Num of threads/iterations but not able to succeed fully. I have pasted the o/p in the previous mail thread. I am forwarding the snap of the results :-

I have tried on 2.6.12-10-386 linux kernel but i don't think the linux kernel version is related...

Any thoughts?


>No, it is not making any difference. I tried with Num of threads/iterations as 100/10 1000/100. But no luck. Again it is num of threads * iterations.
