Comment 2 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2019-04-19 09:07:51 UTC
When I set CFLAGS+=-mlong-calls, miniperl no longer triggers segmentation faults, but that probably isn't a proper workaround for this bug as it generates slower code.

Comment 5 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2019-05-15 08:40:02 UTC
The build succeeds with sys-devel/gcc-7.3.0-r6 so this apparently slipped through stabilisation testing for =sys-devel/gcc-8.2.0*.
Comment 6 Andreas K. Hüttel archtester gentoo-dev 2019-05-19 20:49:07 UTC
I'm going to call for stabilization of Perl 5.28 for everyone except hppa and sparc in bug 685664. If you want to go ahead anyway, please cc yourself there and proceed. Otherwise I'd suggest we wait for now until the upstream bug brings results.
Comment 7 Pierre-Yves Bonnetain-Nesterenko 2019-05-25 08:56:10 UTC
Same problem and error on a RapsberryPi 2 (ARM).

Comment 8 Andreas K. Hüttel archtester gentoo-dev 2019-05-25 15:17:40 UTC
@everyone, 

as a data point when talking to upstream, could you please test if this failure still happens with perl-5.30.0 ?

You dont need to actually install perl-5.30.0 for that; it's enough if you run

ebuild /usr/portage/dev-lang/perl/perl-5.30.0.ebuild clean test

I have a single build log for dev-lang/perl-5.30.0 on HPPA, so that went well without patching or workarounds, it seems.

Still there on sparc:

This bug report is about segmentation faults in perl on PARISC hardware, not about bus errors triggered by unaligned accesses (by various programs) on SPARC hardware. The PARISC Linux kernel handles unaligned accesses by fixing them and warning about them (but, again, that is not what this bug report is about):

You could very well be right that it is different from bug 676062 and that it's not an unaligned access at fault. If you test my patch that I attached here: https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=133495#txn-1654811 and the problem still exists, that would confirm that you are correct.

Oh, even easier to check: EXTRA_ECONF="-Dd_u32align"

You should really read comment #10. The matter is apparently already resolved in 5.30.0 but not yet backported to 5.28.
