• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

When emerging the new clisp (2.31) the emerge fails with a stack overflow:

...

overflow)

I can't reproduce this, however your CFLAGS are: 

   -march=athlon-xp -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer 

mine are:

   -march=pentium3 -O3 -funroll-loops -fprefetch-loop-arrays -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe

You might want to try re-emerging with -mcpu=i686 instead of -march=athlon-xp or, try removing -O3.  Let me know the result

[Comment 2 Aquila 2003-11-28 08:44:25 UTC]

omitting -O3 solved it, hope that helps

[Comment 3 Matthew Kennedy (RETIRED) 2003-11-28 22:05:53 UTC]

hi Aquila,

yes that helps.  Did you happen to try with -O2?  If possible, i'd like to filter flags as little as possile.

Matt

[Comment 4 Aquila 2003-11-29 01:14:03 UTC]

I'll try -O2 tomorrowevening...

[Comment 5 Matthew Kennedy (RETIRED) 2003-11-29 20:56:32 UTC]

thanks. in the mean time i've committed a version which omits any optimizations when march=athlon-xp is used

[Comment 6 Aquila 2003-11-30 03:20:50 UTC]

I have just emerged that version, works flawless.
I will start compiling -O2 soon, first I'm going to give gcc another try...

[Comment 7 Aquila 2003-11-30 05:02:19 UTC]

-O2 doesn't work, it still fails on a stack overflow
(meanwhile I'm using the newest gcc)

[Comment 8 Matthew Kennedy (RETIRED) 2003-12-01 17:32:45 UTC]

ok thanks for the feedback.  I will leave it as it is currently (omit any optimization in the presense of -march=athlon-xp)

Matt
