Hello, I am compiling OpenSSL FIPS-1.2 natively on PPC, the build blocks forever at :-
+ /bin/rm -f ./libcrypto.so.0.9.8 + gcc /fips-lib///fipscanister.o /fips-lib/fips_premain.c -fPIC -DOPENSSL_PIC -DOPENSSL_THREADS -D_REENTRANT -DOPENSSL_NO_ERR -DB_ENDIAN -DTERMIO -O3 -Wall -DOPENSSL_NO_CAMELLIA -DOPENSSL_NO_CAPIENG -DOPENSSL_NO_CAST -DOPENSSL_NO_CMS -DOPENSSL_NO_EC -DOPENSSL_NO_ECDH -DOPENSSL_NO_ECDSA -DOPENSSL_NO_ENGINE -DOPENSSL_NO_GMP -DOPENSSL_NO_IDEA -DOPENSSL_NO_JPAKE -DOPENSSL_NO_MDC2 -DOPENSSL_NO_OCSP -DOPENSSL_NO_RC5 -DOPENSSL_NO_RFC3779 -DOPENSSL_NO_RIPEMD -DOPENSSL_NO_SEED -DOPENSSL_NO_SSL2 -DOPENSSL_NO_TLSEXT -DOPENSSL_NO_UI -shared -Wl,-Bsymbolic -Wl,-soname=libcrypto.so.0.9.8 -o libcrypto.so.0.9.8 -Wl,--whole-archive libcrypto.a -Wl,--no-whole-archive -L. -ldl + fips/../fips/fips_premain_dso ./libcrypto.so.0.9.8 <-------------- BLOCKS HERE FOREVER After I ran gdb, I found that it is blocked in lh_new, here is the backtrace .. Current language: auto; currently asm (gdb) bt #0 0x100400dc in lh_new () #1 0x10039fdc in def_get_class () #2 0x1003a564 in int_new_ex_data () #3 0x1003adb8 in CRYPTO_new_ex_data () #4 0x100384e8 in BIO_set () #5 0x100385f0 in BIO_new () #6 0x10000bb8 in main () The same thing is happening to me if i compile 0.9.8j on the same system with ./config fips taking fipscanister.o from previous build of FIPS-1.2. Please help. - Basit
