Dear HPPA porters, We would like to push glibc 2.24 currently in experimental into sid in the next weeks. It is going to be the version we ship in Stretch.
I have looked at the testsuite results from the latest uploads, there are 9 real regressions (ie not new tests) mostly related to NPTL: * FAIL: nptl/tst-default-attr original exit status 22 stacksize test guardsize test sched test tst-default-attr.c:101: pthread_create returned 22 (errno = 22) tst-default-attr.c:371: do_sched_test returned 22 (errno = 22) The test hasn't changed recently. * FAIL: rt/tst-timer4 original exit status 1 clock_gettime returned timespec = { 1469505650, 981046459 } clock_getres returned timespec = { 0, 4000000 } Timed out: killed the child process * FAIL: rt/tst-timer5 original exit status 1 clock_gettime returned timespec = { 1665713, 650390357 } clock_getres returned timespec = { 0, 4000000 } Timed out: killed the child process The above two seems related. * FAIL: nptl/tst-cancel-self original exit status 1 Didn't expect signal from child: got `Segmentation fault' * FAIL: nptl/tst-cancel-self-cancelstate original exit status 1 Didn't expect signal from child: got `Segmentation fault' * FAIL: nptl/tst-cancel12 original exit status 1 Didn't expect signal from child: got `Segmentation fault' * FAIL: nptl/tst-cancel14 original exit status 1 Didn't expect signal from child: got `Segmentation fault' * FAIL: nptl/tst-cancelx12 original exit status 1 Didn't expect signal from child: got `Segmentation fault' * FAIL: nptl/tst-cancelx14 original exit status 1 Didn't expect signal from child: got `Segmentation fault' The above 6 failures appeared when switching from GCC 5 to GCC 6 and looks like quite worrisome. Given that GCC 5 is going to be removed soon, we have to build the GNU libc with GCC 6. Could you please have a look at the issues?
