Re: [go-nuts] Re: Cross-compiled program for Raspberry Pi crashes

Yes, that's understood. I'm just responding to the notion that it's a bug for a package author to expect the compiler to do the right thing. On Tue, 2018-08-14 at 15:56 -0700, Ian Lance Taylor wrote: > On Tue, Aug 14, 2018 at 3:49 PM, Dan Kortschak > wrote: > > > > > > This ignores the possibil

Re: [go-nuts] Re: Cross-compiled program for Raspberry Pi crashes

This ignores the possibility that more than one alignment-sensitive field might be needed. Requiring that they all be up front, potentially degrading readability flies in the face of the design principles of the language. This kind foot-gun in other languages is why many people choose Go. On Tue,

Re: [go-nuts] Re: Cross-compiled program for Raspberry Pi crashes

It’s a bug in the library if it uses 64 bit atomic operations without ensuring 64 bit alignment. Putting the alignment-required field at the top of the struct is the traditional method. //jb On 14 Aug 2018, at 08:45, Stephan Mühlstrasser mailto:stephan.muehlstras...@gmail.com>> wrote: Am Mont

[go-nuts] Re: Cross-compiled program for Raspberry Pi crashes

I don’t think that will help. The problem is not cross compilation. The problem is when run in a 32bit environment the offset of that field is not guaranteed to be aligned to 8 bytes. You’ve got a 50/50 chance that each allocation will be properly aligned. -- You received this message because

Re: [go-nuts] Re: Cross-compiled program for Raspberry Pi crashes

Another option may be to run 32 bit raspberian OS and compile in a virtual machine and compile it there, perhaps. VirtualBox comes to mind. On Mon, Aug 13, 2018 at 1:52 PM, Stephan Mühlstrasser < stephan.muehlstras...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Am Montag, 13. August 2018 22:36:56 UTC+2 schrieb Dave C

[go-nuts] Re: Cross-compiled program for Raspberry Pi crashes

No, it’s not a cross compilation issue. Well, yes and no, the rpi is a 32 bit platform so some structures have a different size causing the offset of the field to be 32 but aligned, not the required 64 bit aligned. The play example shows the address of the field is not aligned on a 8 byte boun
