| Summary | 0003879: fails to multithread on Solaris 8 | ||||||
| Description |
pigs (spelt pigz) fails to multithread on Solaris 8. Workaround: use /usr/lib/lwp. Suggest changing RPATH to use /usr/lib/lwp LD_OPTIONS=-R/usr/lib/lwp It's possible a patch will fix also, please find it, check it's still public and put in checkinstall if you think the patch is the solution. |

Funny thing, I tested this on Solaris 8, but a branded zone on the T5220 and that looked fine: build8st% time pigz -9 perl-5.10.0,REV\=2009.06.15-SunOS5.8-sparc-CSW.pkg pigz -9 perl-5.10.0,REV=2009.06.15-SunOS5.8-sparc-CSW.pkg 275.02s user 0.57s system 2564% cpu 10.746 total Maybe the branded zones are not 100% compatible in terms of errors :-D Ok then, putting the runpath in doesn't seem to have a negative effect as on Solaris 9 onwards the libs point back to /usr/lib or are missing completely which would also mean falling back to /usr/lib which works fine right now. |

I also double checked, no it was quad checked, on build8s. It's probable you have up-to-date patches. Maybe the zone shares the kernel threads... I don't know! |

Any ideas? |

Ah yes, it's the RPATH of libpthread.so that matters. Use wrapper script with LD_LIBRARY_PATH. |
