I was about to try building the libraries and clients, but I thought I'd ask first. Does anybody have a celerity.cf ? -e ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Eric Pearce eap@bu-pub.bu.edu Boston University Information Technology 111 Cummington Street Boston MA 02215 617-353-2780 voice 617-353-6260 fax

I think there is a SIGSEGV whenever bcopy is called with a number of bytes of zero (bcopy(x,y,0)). After adding some code like if (size != 0 ) bcopy(from,to,size) where applicable I got the most important Clients working. === Guido Bunsen, Rechnerbetrieb Informatik, Technical University of Aachen guido@informatik.rwth-aachen.de -- Guido Bunsen, Rechnerbetrieb Informatik, RWTH Aachen, Tel: +49/241/80-4518

There is a bug with bcopy where the byte count is zero. It even made it into the first few releases on the Celerity 6000 (aka the FPS 500). It was finally fixed in release 4.0.? of FPX. On 1200 systems, you definitely need to set up a macro to replace bcopy with an if statement that only executes bcopy when the byte count is non-zero. -- Jerry DeLapp <jgd@acl.lanl.gov> Computing beyond the Bleeding Edge -- The Advanced Computing Laboratory
