Grant, I wish it was that simple.
What you point out of about the V2500 seems
to be exact.
The V2200 has different memory hardware and
a different means for coherent semaphores.
My biggest mistake was to think that we can
go by the cpu version. There will have to be
another way found.
HP-UX uses an external library for semaphores
to get it correct, at least sometimes.
The S... is getting deep.
What can be demonstrated at this moment is:
PA8500 - works (?)
PA8600 - broke
PA8700 - works
PA8800 - ???
PA8900 - broke (?)
The lack of documentation that would tell us
why does not mean we have given up though.
Mike
