[Thomas Petazzoni]

commit: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=333d09ee864f152292dec646437a482ce514ebb7
branch: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

This patch, backported from upstream, prevent the build from failing due
to:

  [...]
    CCLD     lttng-consumerd
  ../../../src/common/.libs/libcommon.a(runas.o): In function `run_as_worker':
  /tmp/br/build/lttng-tools-2.7.0/src/common/runas.c:325: undefined reference to `pthread_setname_np'
  collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
  Makefile:475: recipe for target 'lttng-consumerd' failed
  [...]

+Subject: [PATCH] Fix: Remove dependency on glibc 2.12 caused by
+ pthread_setname_np
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+prctl() can be used to set the same attribute set by
+pthread_setname_np, but doesn't introduce a dependency on a newer
+glibc. Using prctl(PR_SET_NAME) introduces a soft dependency on
+Linux 2.6.9. However, the worker won't fail to launch if the call
+fails as it is set out of convenience (debugger output).
