JAGab84972 : cma_poll() consumes most of CPU time. Defect Description: PHSS_20608: 1. JAGab84972 : cma_poll() in threaded applications consumes most of CPU time, when poll() is called under following conditions: - pthread.h is included by the application and - cma_init() is not called and - The application is not multithreaded yet. (i.e. there are no threads created) Resolution: The polling interval is now initialized before the application goes multithreaded.
