Ah. It seemed to work when I tested it, but stopped doing so when I
removed the stable Debian package. Now it gives a blank screen because
uzbl-event-manager fails to start.

Sorry for the noise

The master branch doesn't build on current Debian stable - "git bisect
run make" thinks that the last commit that made out of the box is
commit d0f0d from January 2013.

The v0.9.1 branch "make install"s for me, however, and that is from

Bug#672818: mediawiki 1.15 is very old

2012-05-13 Thread Martin Guy
Package: mediawiki
Version: 1:1.15.5-8
Severity: Wishlist

Mediawiki 1.15 was released in 2009/10, while the current stable
version is 2.19 and most non-Debianized extensions on mediawiki.org
are tested with 2.18. An update would make more of these usable.

Many thanks for packaging mediawiki

Bug#513746: Same on nv driver1680x1050 but bit depth dependent?

2010-01-24 Thread Martin Guy
Same here, using nv X server on nVidia RIVA-TNT with 1680x1050 screen
resolution, but the same effect appears when running it in 1024x768 or
800x600, all with bit depth 16.
The splash image is skewed identically to the one shown in the
original attachment.

Back at the origila 1650x1050, at bit depth 24 the splash image
appears correctly, while at bit depth 8 it comes out flipped upside
down (attached).

Hope this helps you reproduce the effect

Just to say, there's a 500MHz 512MB armel-sid box here

Package: libesd0
Version: 0.2.41-5

libesd0 needs /dev/dsp to work, and that device is provided by the
oss-compat package, so libesd0 should require oss-compat.

Example: madplay requires libesd0 (>= 0.2.35) | libesd-alsa0 (>= 0.2.35)
but if libesd0 is installed (and oss-compat isn't) it dies saying:

There is a big fast armel box here you can use over ssh. Just suggest
a username by private email. It is also set to give Bus Error on
misaligned data accesses instead of the default behaviour of returning
garbage values, which often helps catch mysterious bugs.

2009-09-21 Thread Martin Guy
On 9/21/09, Martin Guy  wrote:
> I just tried this, and it's doing a misaligned word access:

Sorry, my mistake. It's pumping misaligned half-word (16-bit)
accesses, which again returns some form of garbage, probably either
the correct value if it's from the middle of a 4-byte word or some
combination of the word's top and bottom bytes if the halfword
straddles a 4-byte boundary.
The fixup trap is incredibly slow, so the whole test will take 3 hours
but the first 65536 bytes of output are identical to the i386 output,
which suggests that this is it

I just tried this, and it's doing a misaligned word access:

$ gdb ./ivorbisfile_example.armel
(gdb) run < *ogg > armel
Starting program:
/home/martin/cluster/arm/libvorbisidec-debug-2009-04-24/ivorbisfile_example.armel
< *ogg > armel

Bitstream is 2 channel, 44100Hz

Decoded length: 324300 samples
Encoded by: Xiph.Org libVorbis I 20070622

Program received signal SIGBUS, Bus error.
0x4004eaa0 in ov_read () from /usr/lib/libvorbisidec.so.1
(gdb)

To get the bus error you need to have
# echo 5 > /proc/cpu/alignment

the default setting (0) silently returns junk, specifically, the word
from addr&~3 rotated by (addr&3)*8 bits, which is less than useful.

Another setting, 3, catches the alignment trap, fakes "the right
thing" in the kernel and returns what you would get on a byte-aligned
machine; that would quickly tell you whether fixing the alignment
error will fix the problem.

armel is soft-float so yes, being able to use tremor would give a huge

Hi
   The fix is very simple: the defaulting of this macro to 0 in

Bug#539496: Acknowledgement (armel llvm-gcc-4.2-generated executables give illegal instruction on armv4t CPUs)

2009-08-02 Thread Martin Guy
Yes, changing the default cpu in its copy of the gcc source fixed the issue.
Here is the extra patch file to add into llvm-gcc-4.2-2.5/debian/patches

I've built and tested this with llvm-gcc-4.2-2.2 but the issue is the
same in 2.5 (and the attached patch file is modified to apply to -2.5)

FWIW, a fixed deb package of llvm-gcc-4.2-2.2 for armel (and a similar
patch for the -2.2 source tree) can be found under
http://simplemachines.it/debian/armel-lenny

M
Debian armel's minimum CPU is armv4t but standard GCC for EABI sets a default
arch of armv5t, which causes llvm-gcc's libgcc.a to contain illegal "clz"
instructions. This fixes that, the same way as the Debian GCC package.

Bug#539496: armel llvm-gcc-4.2-generated executables give illegal instruction on armv4t CPUs

2009-08-01 Thread Martin Guy
Package: llvm-gcc-4.2
Version: 2.2-1

Hi, and thanks for packaging a great compiler!
I just found one fairly simple portability problem on armel architecture:

The minimum ARM ISA that Debian armel runs on is  armv4t, and Debian
armel gcc by default generates armv4t output but executables created
with llvm-gcc die on armv4t CPUs with "Illegal instruction",
specifically "clz" (which is armv5t and above).

Although llvm itself seems to be correctly generating armv4t code by
default (checked by seeing the default arch setting in the llvm source
and by scanning all .o's in a LAME build), the version of libgcc.a
that it links against has been compiled for armv5t, and contains "clz"
instructions in the libgcc integer div(/mod) and softfloat support
functions:
__aeabi_{uidiv,uidivmod,idiv,idivmod,l2f}
__umodsi3 __modsi3 __adddf3 __addsf3

Repeat-by (on an armv4t host):
cat > c.c << EOF
main() {return foo(2);}
foo(int a) { return(12/a);}
EOF
llvm-gcc c.c
./a.out

Illegal instruction

To identify all affected libraries installed on an armel system:

find /usr/lib/llvm -name '*.a' | while read a
do
objdump -d $a | egrep -q '\' && echo $a
done

/usr/lib/llvm/gcc-4.2/lib/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabi/4.2.1/kext/libgcc.a
/usr/lib/llvm/gcc-4.2/lib/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabi/4.2.1/static/libgcc.a
/usr/lib/llvm/gcc-4.2/lib/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabi/4.2.1/libgcc.a
/usr/lib/llvm/gcc-4.2/lib/libstdc++.a

It looks from the llvm scripts that it is building a native GCC and
using that to compile the gcc libraries. If so, the following may be
relevant:
I know that the GCC source as supplied defaults to armv5t for ARM-EABI
and that Debian gcc has a patch to fix this (attached).
If the llvm-gcc build script builds a native version of gcc and builds
the GCC libraries using that, then adding a version of this to the
llvm-gcc debian patches should sort it out.

I'm assuming 2.5 has the same problem as 2.2, since the debian
changelog says nothing about this.

There is a 600MHz 512MB armv5t Debian armel box here that can be used
for compiling and a 200MHz 64MB armv4t board for testing, both on 24/7
and accessible via ssh. If that would be useful, please write
privately suggesting a username.

Bug#531188: iconvconfig has a misaligned pointer access on arm

2009-05-30 Thread Martin Guy
Package: libc6
Version: 2.7-18
Severity: minor

While apt-get upgrading an arm-lenny system I see the following:
-
Checking init scripts...

/var/lib/dpkg/info/libc6.postinst: line 343:  2254 Bus error
iconvconfig
-
This occurs because I have detection of misaligned word accesses
enabled on my arm box
(echo 5 > /proc/cpu/alignment) whereas such accesses normally give
garbage results, returning the word from *(addr & ~3) rotated so that
the byte at *(char *)addr is in the least significant position.

The offending instruction is
(gdb) x/i 0x989c
0x989c :  ldr r2, [r5]
where
r5 0x5875e  362334
(should be a multiple of 4).

With libc6-dbg installed:

Program received signal SIGBUS, Bus error.
0x989c in write_output ()
(gdb) bt
#0  0x989c in write_output ()
#1  0xa7dc in main ()

which suggests that on most Debian ARM machines some piece(s) of
4-byte data are being written to somewhere half-word-swapped.

Strangely enough, the same symptom does not occur with the same
version of libc6 on armel-lenny (only arm-lenny) on the same machine.

Repeat-by:
# iconvconfig
Bus error

Bug#525261: use of FPU_SETCW or FPU_GETCW causes illegal instruction on armel

2009-04-23 Thread Martin Guy
Package: glibc
Version: 2.9-7

/usr/include/fpu_control.h on armel defines FPU_[SG]ETCW as VFP
coprocessor instructions, whereas armel is soft-float.

#define _FPU_GETCW(cw) \
  __asm__ __volatile__ ("mrc p10, 7, %0, cr1, cr0, 0" : "=r" (cw))
/* This is fmxr fpscr, %0.  */
#define _FPU_SETCW(cw) \
  __asm__ __volatile__ ("mcr p10, 7, %0, cr1, cr0, 0" : : "r" (cw))

Packages that use these cause an illegal instruction trap on hardware
that does not have a VFP unit (and misleadingly set the FPU control
word on those that do, while softfloat remains unaffected).

This was highlighted by build failure of gerris - see Drew Parsons' messages in
http://lists.debian.org/debian-arm/2009/04/msg00018.html
He suggests that the right thing for fpu_control.h may be simply not
to define these macros but I don't know if that's right.

Bug#515949: libvorbis patch for armel

2009-03-19 Thread Martin Guy
Of the flags that -ffast-math sets, turning -ffinite-math-only off
again avoids the erroneous optimization. With the attached patch,
libvorbis's examples/encoder_example produces the same (correct)
output as on arm-oldabi and it makes oggenc work on armel too.

 M
On armel, oggenc creates short output files that decode to the correct amount
of silence. This is caused by an optimization bug present in gcc 4.[123] that
miscompiles the MAX(x,y) macro, optimizing it away completely.

It is built for any architecture but in its build dependencies for
libasound2-dev  libcap-dev  libraw1394-dev  libfreebob0-dev
it specified
[i386 ia64 alpha amd64 armeb arm hppa m32r m68k mips mipsel powerpc
ppc64 s390 s390x sh3 sh3eb sh4 sh4eb sparc]
which doesn't include armel, so the package on armel builds without
these facilities, thatnks to "configure".

These packages are available in armel, so either armel needs adding to
those four long lists or, if the intention is to exclude the freebsd-
and hurd- variants
Architecture: [linux-any]
will work (and is what is meant)

Sorry, I misunderstood, thinking you had added --system to the

I have now downloaded the source package for sid and see that

In Debian, the arch setting is automatically armv4t, and using a
higher -march setting doesn't seem to help (but I guess that's a
libgcc issue)

I just tried building the lenny package and it does build OK on armel.

Bug#515949: vorbis encoder is broken on armel

2009-03-12 Thread Martin Guy
This is bizarre. If I run oggenc on an ep9312 (armv4t) chip, I get an
.ogg file that reproduces the sound correctly, but is significantly
different (75% of the size) from the same encoding performed on x86,
while on an Xscale (armv5te) and Cortex-a8 (armv7) I get different
results again, and the ogg files are full of junk and decode to
silence..
  These are all up-to-date debian-armel-lenny installations with the
same versions of
vorbis-tools (1.2.0-5), libogg (1.1.3-4) and
libvorbis0a libvorbisenc2 libvorbisfile3 (1.2.0.dfsg-3.1) installed.

-rw-r--r-- 1 martin martin 346624 Mar 12 13:29 Happy-x86.ogg
-rw-r--r-- 1 martin martin 262144 Mar 12 14:19 Happy-ep9312.ogg
-rw-r--r-- 1 martin martin 186510 Mar 12 14:50 Happy-xscale.ogg
-rw-r--r-- 1 martin martin 186510 Mar 12 14:55 Happy-cortex.ogg

The ep9312, xscale and cortex boards are all using softfloat, which is
100% IEEE compliant,
while the x86 performs intermediate calculations to 80 bits' precision
instead of 64.

Another difference is that the machines are running different versions
of the linux kernel
ep9312: 2.6.25 (custom compilation for TS7250 board)
xscale: 2.6.26-1-iop32x (Michlmayr Debian kernel for n2100)
cortex-a8: 2.6.27.15-omap (custom compilation from mainline + mainline
omap patches)

and "ldd /usr/bin/oggenc" loads the library components to different
virtual addresses, presumably due to the kernel version differences.

Building the original libvorbisenc tarball from xiph.org, the
example_encoder fails similarly on all the ARM boards, producing
different silent ogg files of the same length on the different
systems,
while a build on gentoo-arm-eabi-feroceon produces a shorter file.

Since this is not a Debian-only problem, I am reporting this upstream
at xiph.org, citing this bug report for info.

The most time-consuming, error-prone and tedious part of the armel
port was identifying all the packages that had
[long-list-of-arches-except-one-or-two] and contacting the maintainers
to make a trivial fix, as well as having a latency of months.
The -N suggestion is a good thing for all future ports (as well as

Bug#519275: purging gkrellmd does recursive descent of entire file tree

2009-03-11 Thread Martin Guy
Package: gkrellmd
Version: 2.3.1-8
Severity: minor

gkrellmd's postrm script calls
 deluser --remove-all-files gkrellmd
which performs a recursive descent of the file tree, into all users
home directories and all mounted NFS volumes. This became apparent
because some (large and deep!) NFS volumes were exported with the
root_squash option, so provoked

Purging configuration files for gkrellmd ...
Looking for files to backup/remove ...
Can't opendir(/home/martin/cluster/arm/doc): Permission denied
 at /usr/sbin/deluser line 304
Can't opendir(/home/martin/cluster/doc/Scritti): Permission denied
 at /usr/sbin/deluser line 304
...

I guess this is unintentional, since I don't think gkrellmd owns any
files. It doesn't even own /etc/gkrellmd.conf (and rightly so).
However, it is very slow, quite alarming for users and could
conceivable silently delete files at random throughout the filesystem,
for example if the gkrellm UID happened to correspond to some other
system user on a mounted NFS volume.

I'm not sure why the gkrellm user needs a home directory /home/gkrellm
either... maybe this could be tweaked too.

Cheers. Great utility

(this 17-byte pattern of garbage repeats for most of the body of the file)

Decoding such a file produces a WAV of the correct size with nothing
but zero bytes in the audio data section.

Other wav files of various provenance are similarly unsuccessful.

It looks like libvorbis, rather than oggenc, libao or libogg, bcos its
example encoder in the build directory
obj-arm-linux-gnueabi/examples/example_encoder
uses stdio to read the WAV file and fails similarly
while speexenc, which also uses libogg to write files, works fine.

FWIW this wave file is visible at
http://martinwguy.co.uk/martin/test/Happy.wav but oggenc's giving the
same kind of output from any wav file I supply it with.

yes, on etch (4.16.0.70-3) and lenny (4.16.0.70-3.1)

Sometimes a large white window (about 3/4 screen size) flashes up for
one screen frame, so I guess it may be some unhealthy interaction with
the X server or some library, however I've tried it on thre different
systems, with X servers ati, cirrus and i82810 and get the same result
on all of them. All systems are recently updated.

If I can be of further assistance, or if ssh access to an example

I must be missing something. Are we talking about the Debian sid

It failed on a 600MHz armel-sid box, but when I upped the timeout from
30 to 120 seconds it succeeded. The same results hold for the old arm
port (under an EABI kerne).

Ok - here's the version that makes the same patch to Makefile.in
instead, assiduously rebuild from scratch on arm-sid armel-sid and
even arm-etch for good measure. A, a working netwatch everywhere
:)

>  There's also an alignment bug in showtraf - put that on hold...

There was an alignment bug in etch but that has already gone in lenny.
It was segfaulting in my lenny build because it was getting linked
with slcurses instead of ncurses. slcurses.h presence overrider
ncurses presence during configure, and using slcurses gives a trafshow
that segfaults.You might also like to add
   Build-Conflicts: libslang2-dev
to debian/control to save other suckers like me from getting a duff
build by mistake (libslang2-dev is pulled in by libaa-dev and ohers,
so is not uncommon on development systems)

Cheers

Bug#501596: netwatch alignment errors on ARM garble IP addresses or give bus errors

2008-10-08 Thread Martin Guy
Package: netdiag
Version: 1.0-8
User: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Usertags: eabi

Hi!
   Since etch at least, netwatch has not worked on arm: it reports
lots of phantom accesses in the remote IP addresses composed of the
high-order bytes of the local IP address in the low-order bytes and 16
bytes of garbage in the high-order bytes. This turns out to be
entirely due to misaligned 32-bit memory accesses, which are easy to
detect ehre as I have /proc/cpu/alignment set to cause bus errors.
   The attached patches fix the two issues.
   One is not really netwatch's fault: GCC spots a 16-byte memcpy of
what looks to it from the type casts to be properly-aligned source and
target structures, and uses 4-byte register copies to do a 16-byte
copy - at runtime it turns out that one of the params is an array of
shorts, so the nonaligned accesses do the usual ARM thing of rotating
the words by (addr & 03) bytes. (Or giving bus error if you set ethe
system that way) The easy workaround is to compile that file without
using the builtin memcpy "optimisation".
   The other is the constructions of a 4-byte network-endian integer
in a 4-char array and then accessing it as a longword, fixed in the
source with __attribute__((aligned(32)))

   I dunno if the other programs in the suite have similar issues, but
this definitely affects and fixes netwatch on both arm and armel sid.
It also works on arm-etch.

Attached:
- screen dump of garbage output (the machines' own IP address is
88.96.6.156 and the network is quiet)
- patch -p1 file to ficx the two alignment issues in netwatch.

Bug#443322: Yes, maintain the original behaviour

2008-09-11 Thread Martin Guy
Hi
  Yes, this is a security problem.
  Letting people probe usernames compromises Unix security - the
behaviour must be identical, including the time taken, whether the
username is valid or not
  (There was once a hole introduced when someone decided not to bother
hashing the supplied password if the username was invalid, thereby
informing attackers of username validity by the time it took to reject
them on an idle machine)
  Unix is used in many contexts that you cannot begin to imagine -
something as generic as Debian even more, so arguments of the form "I
can't think of a circumstance where this would be a problem any more"
are just display sleepwalking naivety. Just to knock the specific
example of this kind of thinking, if someone steals my laptop, I don't
want them having an easy life by being able to probe for usernames and
then just having the passwords to guess. Another example: we run a
service is a squat in Sicily, providing email to hundreds of people,
but we can't afford a guard to sit by the server 24 hours a day...
  Please maintain regular Unix security on *all* entry points, not
just the bare minumum that applies in your own particular
circumstance! Don't change what ain't broke...

Thanks

M

Yup, me too since today.
When the boot succeeds, the "Cleaning up ifupdown" message is not printed.
The system here is Debian lenny, with kernel 2.6.25-2-686.
If it hangs again I'll copy the boot output.

Bug#495351: Fwd: ARM sigill

2008-09-06 Thread Martin Guy
The upstream maintainer suggests the following fix in ecl to work
around this problem

-- Forwarded message --
From: Juan Jose Garcia-Ripoll <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Date: Sep 5, 2008 11:23 PM
Subject: ARM sigill
To: Martin Guy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Seems I found the problem. His system does not like the calls to
fedisableexcept and feenableexcept which are used to control the
behavior of the soft-FPU unit. Apparently, after these calls the
processor begins to believe it has a real FPU.
[...]
Well, I have found the problem. The mathematical routines in the C
library which are used for controlling the behavior of floating point
computations is broken.

ECL breaks right after booting because in __sigsetjmp() the system
queries an internal register for the capabilities of the CPU and it
finds that it has a coprocessor. However, this same query happened
before and it returned false.

I tracked it down to the lines in src/c/unixint.c that activate the
detection of floating point overflow. These are lines which make calls
to fedisableexcept/feenableexcept and these are the ones that seem to
drive the system crazy.

So, all in all, it seems it is a bogus C library.

But there is a simple solution. Delete the line "si_trap_fpe(Ct, Ct);"
in src/c/unixint.d

Could you report these findings in the Debian system? I am too tired
right now :-)

Duly reported...

Not a bug in amiga-fdisk itself, but a Debian buildd issue that needs sorting

amiga-fdisk-cross (bug #461081)
but, despite being enabled for 12 architectures, the package has not

Bug#497160: Cannot link to -lshp on armel: hidden symbol '__aeabi_dcmpgt'

2008-08-30 Thread Martin Guy
Package: shapelib
Version: 1.2.10-4

Linking anything with -lshp fails on armel. e.g.:

$ cat > c.c
main(){}
^D
$ cc c.c -lshp
/usr/bin/ld: a.out: hidden symbol `__aeabi_dcmpgt' in
/usr/lib/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabi/4.3.1/libgcc.a(_cmpdf2.o) is referenced
by DSO
/usr/bin/ld: final link failed: Nonrepresentable section on output
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

This breaks the build of swscanner (when configure probes for -lshp),
and makes gpsmanshp and xastir unrunnable

More details are on wiki.debian.org/ArmEabiProblems -> shapelib

Bug#496310: xdm enabled at startup is deaf to the keyboard

2008-08-24 Thread Martin Guy
Package: xdm
Version: 1:1.1.8-3

hi!
   I've dist-upgraded from etch to lenny and now when xdm starts up
the X server at boot I get the login window but it seems totally deaf
to the keyboard. The mouse moves ok. I've tried every key with no
luck, except once when it suddenly spurted a load of
10;\99l!0 \n... running off the right side of
the login window, then going deaf again. Another (rare) time, in the
Login: box
=-0999 - running off to the right hand
side of the login window (outside the Login: input field).
ctrl-alt-backspace won't work either.

However, disabling the automatic launch in Xservers
- 0: local /usr/bin/X :0 vt7 -nolisten tcp
+ #0: local /usr/bin/X :0 vt7 -nolisten tcp
and enabling remote logins in xdm-config
- DisplayManager.requestPort:0
+ !DisplayManager.requestPort:0
# /etc/init,d.xdm restart
and starting the session from the command line
$ X -query localhost
works perfectly, as does "startx".

I've tried purging xdm and reinstalling it, to eliminate old config
issues - no change.
The same thing happens if I change the ati driver for the fbdev driver.

The X server is normally idle but sometimes goes to consuming 100% CPU
if I press random keys. The 100% CPU consumption can erliably be
provoked by pressing digit 3 key - ther seems to be no other single
key that reliably provokes this behaviour.
There is no extra output in /var/log/Xorg.log.0 during this behaviour.

Killing the X server at this point usually makes xdm restart -
occasionally it leaves a black background with many white vertical
lines and hangs the console. In this case, Xorg.log.0 says:
(WW) xf86CloseConsole: KDSETMODE failed: Input/output error
(WW) xf86CloseConsole: VT_GETMODE failed: Input/output error
(WW) xf86CloseConsole: VT_ACTIVATE failed: Input/output error
(WW) xf86CloseConsole: VT_WAITACTIVE failed: Input/output error
but normality can be regained by issuing /etc/init.d/xdm restart

Looks like a corrupt pointer in xdm's input section when dealing with
the console directly. Any other diagnostics I can give you?

Bug#496305: nvi cannot handle characters with the top bit set

2008-08-24 Thread Martin Guy
Package: nvi
Version: 1.81.6-3

When I edit /var/lib/dpkg/status using nvi and then search for a
string (or page down a few times), I get:
"Conversion error on line 428"
I then can't 428G, but 427G reveals:

Package: libgammu3
Status: install ok installed
Priority: optional
Section: libs
Installed-size: 1028

(line 428 is the ~).

Using a different vi, this line appears as:
Maintainer: Michal \304\214iha\305\231 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Other lines with the same Maintainer are similarly garbled, and
attempting to write the file out to some other filename truncates it
to 427 lines.

This seems to hold for any line that contains a character with the top bit set.

Bug#463277: Smaller patch to same effect, doesn't needlessly use gcc-4.1 on armel

2008-07-31 Thread Martin Guy
Hi
   This patch, apart from being much smaller, only uses g++-4.1 on arm
instead of both arm and armel (needs to use DEB_BUILD_ARCH, nit
DEB_BUILD_ARCH_CPU)
  Thanks anyway, Peter, I copied your arch detection code, which is
much more elegant than my hacky attempt...

   M
On arm (old-abi only) if you build with g++-4.2 or 4.3 the build segfaults the
first time it tries to run the interpreter.
MACHCONF is set to linux-arm on both arm and armel, so we invent another
config variable to distringuish between Debian arm and armel, and select
gcc-4.1 on arm only.

It is indeed required on armel but your patch is buggy.
You need to use DEB_BUILD_ARCH instead of DEB_BUILD_ARCH_CPU,
which is "arm" on both, whilc D_B_A is "arm" or "armel".

Bug#463277: More analysis of afnix 1.5.2 failing to build on arm old-abi

2008-07-31 Thread Martin Guy
It also fails on arm-sid if compiled with gcc-4.2 in the very same
way: SEGFAULT at the same line in the build.

However, it succeeds if compiled with gcc-4.1 - see my AFNIX doc for
details of the hack.
Unfortunately to achieve this you need to patch one of the package's
config files to select gcc-4.1 when architecture == arm.
Is that a permissible workaround? If so I'll cobble together a patch.

Bug#463277: More analysis

2008-07-29 Thread Martin Guy
The moment in which it segfaults is the first time it runs the
interpreter it has just built, "axi", during the build, so I guess the
whole interpreter is broken. I've tried a debugging build by hacking
debian/rules:
<./cnf/bin/afnix-setup -o --prefix=/usr
>./cnf/bin/afnix-setup -g --prefix=/usr # -o/-g turn each other 
> off
and the cause of death is in exactly the same place, indeed the same
instruction (modulo code differences due to -O0 forced by the debug
build) - some callback to a constructor function whose address is
picked out of an array.
#0  0x4005064c in mksob () at Constant.cpp:29

Serial.cpp:171

(more of this output at n2100.martinwguy.co.uk/martin/arm/AFNIX)

HOWEVER

1.5.2-2 built fine on arm (but not armel - dunno if it was tried or not)
1.5.2-3.1 builds fine on armel but not arm - this should help narrow it down!

The changes are miniscule:

  * Added gcc-4.3_support.dpatch to fix FTBFS with GCC 4.3 (Closes: #461964)
-> just removing -Werror from the gcc command line

  * afnix-doc: should be Architecture:all (Closes: #451602)
-> This implies less work to do, so shouldn't break anything.
  I've tried building without -B (for superstition), and it dies at
the same command, with a Bus Error this time instead of SEGV (I have
the box set to signal misaligned accesses instead of returning garbled
values)

  * Fixed FTBFS: dpkg-shlibdeps: failure: couldn't find library libafnix-
eng.so.1.5 needed by debian/afnix/usr/lib/afnix/libafnix-
net.so.1.5.2. (Closes: #453794)
-> it doesn't get this far.

Given that it builds on every other arch, including armel, and since
1.5.2-2 was built 15-Jul-2007 on arm with gcc-4.2 or 4.1, the most
likely cause seems that it is either tickling a bug in gcc-4.3 for ARM
old-ABI, or that gcc-4.3 on ARM-OABI is violating some assumption
afnix has about it.

Yeah, the easy answer is to drop the package from Lenny, but it's annoying.

I've mailed one of the authors asking if they want to look at it.

Hi!
   The pascal binding to libhdate uses FPC, which only works on five

Bug#484885: execution profiling not enabled for armel in iop4xx kernel

2008-06-07 Thread Martin Guy
Package: linux-2.6
Version: 2.6.25-4
User: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Usertag: eabi

In the configuration for iop4xx on armel, CONFIG_PROFILING is not set,
which breaks the gprof execution profiling tool. I haven't checked the
other armel configurations, but this should be enabled in all Debian
linux kernels.

Come to think of it, this is the second missing kernel option I've
spotted in this configuration, so it is likely that other omissions
and peculiarities would be uncovered if all configurations of all
architectures were checked against a standard set of kernel features
that should be enabled (or should be disabled) for Debian, rather than
having each one configured individually.

Bug#483949: unaligned word access in xulrunner

2008-06-01 Thread Martin Guy
Package: xulrunner
Version: 1.9~rc1
Severity: normal
User: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Usertags: patch

There is an unaligned word access bug in
toolkit/components/url-classifier/src/nsUrlClassifierDBService.cpp line 2024
where a char pointer is cast to an int pointer and accessed. On arm
and armel by default this silently gives junk values. On other
architectures it will cause a bus faults.

Fortunately the fix is trivial and local, though there are probably
more mozilla- o C++-like ways to reimplement this before sending it
upstream.

Bug#468322:

2008-05-31 Thread Martin Guy
That may be because it is doing more these days.
In particular, there is an option in /etc/gkrellmd.conf that disables
a particularly slow and little-used feature:

# The Internet monitor defaults to reading tcp connections once per second.
# However, for Linux SMP kernels where reading /proc/net/tcp causes high
# cpu usage, the inet-interval may be set to 1-20 seconds to slow down
# /proc/net/tcp reads.  Or set it to 0 to totally disable the Inet monitor.
inet-interval 0

Bug#482403: xaos is compiled with compiler optimization turned off

2008-05-22 Thread Martin Guy
Package: xaos
Version: 3.3-1
Severity: normal

debian/rules line 9:
CFLAGS=-g ./configure --prefix=/usr
which disables all compiler optimization for xaos, as well as foiling
people trying to use
CFLAGS="-mfpu=myfpu -O2" dpkg-buildpackage

If you leave CFLAGS alone, xaos does compiler tests and picks what it
thinks are the best optimisation options. e.g. on x86:
-D__OPTIMIZE__ -Wall  -Wundef -Wpointer-arith -Wbad-function-cast
-Wcast-qual -Wcast-align  -Wwrite-strings -Wsign-compare
-Waggregate-return -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes
-Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -march=pentiumpro
-fstrength-reduce -ffast-math -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe
-fno-exceptions -O6 -funroll-loops -frerun-loop-opt -fstrict-aliasing
-malign-double -mno-ieee-fp

(__OPTIMIZE__ also pick arch-dependent optimisations in the source)

Is there a reason for this?

Bug#479163: signed char bug in ginac/clifford.cpp

2008-05-03 Thread Martin Guy
Package: ginac
Version: 1.4.3-1

Hi! While compiling your package on arm, where characters are unsigned
by default, I noticed a bug:

g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -g -Wall -O2 -finline-limit=1200 -c
add.cpp  -fPIC -DPIC -o add.o
add.cpp: In member function 'virtual GiNaC::ex GiNaC::add::coeff(const
GiNaC::ex&, int) const':
add.cpp:295: warning: comparison is always true due to limited range
of data type
add.cpp:304: warning: comparison is always false due to limited range
of data type

because clifford_max_label returns either a valid unsigned char 0-255
or -1 on failure, which will never signal failure where character->int
promotion yields 0-255, and would give a false failure on
architectures with signed characters for a valid return value of 255
(if this is possible).

The attached patch fixed this by extending the return value to int so
that all 257 values can be returned.
This patch fixes a bug on machines where char is unsigned by default, by
extending the type of clifford_max_label to include all 257 possible
return values.

In order of preference
2 or 3: fixup misaligned accesses
4 or 5: SIGBUS the process in question, rather than silently giving

accessing memory through an invalid pointer).
0 or 1: silently give wrong results.

I'm afraid the linked IRC discussion has disappeared from the web and
is not on archive.org - in any case, mailing lists are the place to
hold open source discussions, both so that it is archived and to avoid
"select inner group" false consensus among the few people who happen

Bug#408802: perhaps remove instead

2008-04-29 Thread Martin Guy
> For nmu'ers looking at this bug, please test xview after
>  applying the patch. It is unclear if it actually works on
>  armel.

It works fine on armel with all the xview programs I have tested.
I'd say that working perfectly for 11 years without modification and
being ported to a dozen architectures that never even existed when it
was written is a plus point for xview.
  Being one of the first X toolkits and having existed for so long
makes it very likely that people are also using it with specialist
software that is not included in Debian and that we have never heard
of, because thay can just compile their weird things without needing
to know how to install libraries. In general I wouldn't remove things
that work fine and that are used by hundreds of people, just for some
sense of modernity of cleanliness.
  I can understand its authors in the 1980s not being able to imagine
64 bit architectures being widespread. I would guess this port will
happen the first time someone wants to use a complex xview application
on their 64-bit platform, but saying "xview !*64" seems reasonable.

While I think of it, Riku, can you campaign for "Architecture: !foo
!bar" in all contexts where "Architecture:" occurs? Given the hundreds
of hours you, I and the package maintainers have wasted saying "please
add armel" that has stopped us tackling the real problems, I think
that would be a valuable investment for all future ports of Debian.

Cheers

2008-04-21 Thread Martin Guy
>  Maybe this is support for the explanation as an endian problem?

arm and armel are little-endian. The main weirdnesses of plain arm are
a bizarre middle-endian floating point format (look for things trying
to read FP values off a disk file or network stream) and unusual
structure-packing behaviour (look for filling a struct with values and
dumping it whole to a file or stream or vice versa).

Good luck!

Ah yes, there are two test runs, of which the first succeeds 100% and
