From bea58013607c6507108bc73744a0bf63d735f259 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Adhemerval Zanella Date: Fri, 23 Jan 2015 11:31:49 -0500 Subject: powerpc: Fix powerpc64 build failure with binutils 2.22 GLIBC memset optimization for POWER8 uses the '.machine power8' directive, which is only supported officially on binutils 2.24+. This causes a build failure on older binutils. Since the requirement of .machine power8 is to correctly assembly the 'mtvsrd' instruction and it is already handled by the MTVSRD_V1_R4 macro, there is no really needed of using it. The patch replaces the power8 with power7 for .machine directive. It fixes BZ#17869. --- NEWS | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'NEWS') diff --git a/NEWS b/NEWS index f9ea7cf697..5ca959ee15 100644 --- a/NEWS +++ b/NEWS @@ -18,7 +18,7 @@ Version 2.21 17664, 17665, 17668, 17682, 17702, 17717, 17719, 17722, 17723, 17724, 17725, 17732, 17733, 17744, 17745, 17746, 17747, 17748, 17775, 17777, 17780, 17781, 17782, 17791, 17793, 17796, 17797, 17803, 17806, 17834, - 17844, 17848, 17868, 17870 + 17844, 17848, 17868, 17869, 17870 * A new semaphore algorithm has been implemented in generic C code for all machines.
