I'll get a patch to the list as soon as I have one that works. In the meantime, here are a few of the things I've turned up.
1. The MIPS.asm file needs to load asm/asm.h on Linux boxes, so the config script needs to grab the OS for the MIPS box to identify what header to use. 2. MIPS.asm, in the subroutine opal_atomic_cmpset_32, there is a bne with the jump going to Lretry1. The L needs to be dropped on GCC, and since the other jumps don't have that, I'm guessing it'll work fine without it on other compilers. 3. GCC requires the assembler file to be compiled EITHER with a .S extension, OR with the flag "-x assembler-with-cpp" passed to GCC. Otherwise, it doesn't expand any macros. I'd suggest having an extra define set in the configure, which includes this flag if it's a Linux MIPS box, and where the define is appended to the compile flags ONLY in the opal/asm Makefile. (You don't want to accidently identify everything as assembly!) 4. opal/class/opal_list.c is giving an error, saying that "retry" and "done" are already defined. Still looking into what is going on there. 5. The ROMIO turns out not to be as bad as I'd thought - it just needs to detect if it's MIPS in the configure and then set the MIPS flag. __________________________________ Yahoo!
