MIPS64 NPTL Status

MIPS64 NPTL Status

[Jim Gifford]

Looking through the latest glibc snapshot they have removed linuxthreads 
and moved it to ports. I know Daniel has been working on getting NPTL to 
work on MIPS32, which it does. Thank you Daniel. I know from emails I 
read around linux-mips.org he was going to work on MIPS64 NPTL, just 
curious to the status.

For the record the current glibc snapshot will not build at all under 
MIPS64. Here is the error message I have received, still working on 
getting it to build properly

Out of curiosity, is anyone working on using the Multi-Threading ASE to
support NTPL?

If course.  But we haven't announced schedules yet.

Hi Jim,

I've got complete patches to do this.  I thought I'd already submitted
them, but I found out yesterday morning that I hadn't... simply an
accident.  I've posted my complete set of glibc patches here:

http://return.false.org/~drow/mips/glibc-2005-09-22-HEAD-MIPS64-NPTL.tar.gz

As of this morning, they work for me, using GCC HEAD and binutils HEAD.
Rather more work is required for GDB (see my earlier post today and the
last patch in the above tarball).

There are some test failures.  IIRC, at least one of them is a GCC
unwinder bug that I haven't dug out the fix for yet from my archives.
I'm going to try to get all of this merged soon.

Daniel,
    He I still keeping getting this error with the currently 9192005

You'll need to provide more context, then, since I don't.  I built
those patches this morning.

Daniel,
    Got passed the first issue, but the second one came around when 
trying to get NPTL to compile with N32. Here's what I got. The code does 
compile under pure 64 bit no problems.

I must have sent you an outdated patch.  Remove the mips-specific
sys/ptrace.h header and use the generic one.
