Thanks @xnox for the reply.

The patches don't need to be perfect. Upstreaming is helpful because it
will bring the issue attention, and the fact that you have identified
the issue exactly and written a workaround that is proven to work is
surely very helpful and that information should flow upstream in some
way or another. If it is not the final solution, this level of debugging
information with a working patch surely helps upstream devs a lot and is
the path towards a more complete solution.

Riscv64 is also a platform most devs don't have any clue about even
exists nowadays in Ubuntu. I already filed an issue for Galera upstream
at https://github.com/codership/galera/issues/576

I hope you support the effort by filing an issue upstream at
jira.mariadb.org about the issues you found (or for RocksDB even
upstream upstream at https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues), and if
you open a MR on the Debian packaging at least the mariadb-10.3 can
continue to sync while we wait for a better solution to be developed for
the riscv64 issues.

Thanks!
