Lightspark and posix semaphores
I have successfully built latest lightspark flash plugin on openbsd 5.6 (Needs lots of patches and pkgsrc port does not compile on openbsd, if anyone wants the patched source i`ll share it here ) but it crashes on almost all flash using web pages...
I`ve heard that openbsd does not support posix semaphores and lightspark needs them and actually needs kern.ipc.shmmax and kern.ipc.semmns to be raised (Those are for freebsd) but under openbsd raising values for kern.shminfo.shmmax and kern.seminfo.semmns does not work. So is there any way around this issue ? Compiling and installing the plugin was a challenge but seeing it crash on all pages makes me furious. |

No matter what i do it does not work, crashes all the way on every flash animation. I can`t find valgrind in the openbsd ports, although someone is currently working to port it over to openbsd

According to sem_init(3) and its many brethren man pages, the sem_* syscalls comply with POSIX.1 (ISO/IEC 9945-1:1996). If your application requires semaphores pursuant to later standards (POSIX.1b, POSIX.1c, POSIX.2, or later standards), you'll need a different OS.
