[parisc-linux] hppa glibc 2.3.2-9 available for the brave testers!

[Carlos O'Donell]

debian-hppa,

--- CALLING ALL TESTERS! ---

glibc 2.3.2 is complete for HPPA. We've gotten rid of the following
long standing test-suite errors (bug-iconv3, and test-fenv).

The regressions in 2.3.2 were caused by incorrect handling of the PIC
register by the kernel, but fixed in glibc. Most cases for our stack
were handled incorrectly (stack grows up cases), but are fixed in this
release.

ftp://ftp.parisc-linux.org/unofficial-debs/glibc_2.3.2-9_2003-10-16/

Download all the debs and install with:

dpkg -i libc6_*.deb
(Followed by dpkg -i of the rest in any order, libc6 must install first) 

Please do this only if you consider yourself a well seasoned linux-type
person. If that dpkg install fails for any reason you might be in
trouble. I'm running these debs on all my boxes, and I've tested in a
chroot, rebuilt our toolchain, and ran lmbench, gnome-session, nautilus,
and abi-word.

Thanks go out to everyone for all the moral support and fun! 

--- TEST IT AND REPORT BACK ... PLEASE! :) ---

I do not guarantee that these debs won't cause your computer to explode
like a pineapple grenade, showering shrapnel and fiery death on all your
loved ones.

Hi Carlos,

I can safely broken my raid1 Debian/unstable install and drive some test 
on a disk :) and advise you.

I've downloaded the debs and copied them to my ftp server on
gsyprf10 in case ftp.p-l.o is saturated (unlikely).

And kudos to Carlos!

I've installed the libc6 and libc6-dev debs on both c3k's
and they both are working fine (well, mozilla-firebird is
still broken, not new).

Thanks!

I don't know about firebird but standard mozilla needs some pa specific
configuration stuff added before it will build/work.  I made a first
cut at this and started debugging the app a few weeks ago, but got
caught up in other things.

Carlos,

Sucessfully install :)

Some rsync, ssh connection still work fine;

as well 'apt-get install somepkg'.

build our k-2.6.0-test8-pa1 with success also (boot fine ;) )

evolution (k-2.4.21-32 always) works fine (a bit slow on my c110)

Test case about mallopt() ok :)

So squid didn't hang any more at start up but still failled:

I'm surprised that more things aren't broken, the typo in sysdep-cancel
made all six argument syscalls unsuable :)

Thanks for the testing guys!

debian-hppa, 
parisc-linux,

New testing deb's can be found at:

ftp://ftp.parisc-linux.org/unofficial-debs/glibc_2.3.2-9_2003-10-20/

They fix the following problems encountered by testers:

- Six argument cancellable syscalls don't crash your program anymore.
- Calling feraiseexcept with FE_INEXACT raises the correct exception and
  flag bits.

Cheers,
Carlos.

Hi Carlos,

I test it on my b180 running a k-2.4-23-pre7-pa12 (hosting a basic iptable
fw and a squid proxy and it works fine now).

Thanks alot for this great job,
