[Cbe-oss-dev] [PATCH] libspe2: Initialise object-id on isolated program load

Asayama-san,

.. which is a pointer to the program, so we'd need to do that anyway.

Also, the program handle needs to be valid during the isolated load, so 
we have the same lifetime concerns there.

I think some statement in the spec would be good, preferrably with input 
from the gdb people. How about something along the lines of:

"The spe_program_handle_t pointer must be valid until the program has 
been completely loaded to the SPE. In the case of isolated-mode 
contexts, the program must be valid until spe_context_run() returns. 
For non-isolated contexts, the program only needs to be valid while 
spe_program_load() is executing."

Cheers,

Jeremy
