    Problem Text
    Because of an error in the makefile, the General_5 binary fails to build
    on our implementation when building as a 64-bit object. The build output
    is noted in the first journal output above. This failure to build results
    in the eventual failure at execution time due to the missing General_5
    binary.

    The failure to build General_5 is due to a problem in the makefile.
    Specifically, the General.o and General_5.o objects are built with the -c
    option and the -xarch=v9 flag. However, at link time, though $(LDFLAGS) is
    set to -xarch-=v9 and is used for creating T.General, $(LDFLAGS) is not
    used for creation of General_5. As a result, the build fails when it
    attempts to create a 32-bit object using the 64-bit General_5.o:

    ld: fatal: file General_5.o: wrong machine class
    ld: fatal: File processing errors. No output written to General_5
    *** Error code 1
    make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `General_5'




    The fix that is required to the makefile is to change the following lines
    in tset/PTHR.os/all/General/Makefile:

    General_5: $(OFILES_5) $(THRTCMCHILD) $(LIBS)
    $(CC) -o $@ $(OFILES_5) $(THRTCMCHILD) $(LIBS) -l pthread
    @echo " $@ made"
    to

    General_5: $(OFILES_5) $(THRTCMCHILD) $(LIBS)
    $(CC) -o $@ $(OFILES_5) $(THRTCMCHILD) $(LIBS) -l pthread $(LDFLAGS)
    @echo " $@ made"

    Review Information

    Review Type TSMA Review
    Start Date null
    Completed null
    Status Complete
    Review Recommendation No Resolution Given
    Review Response
    This test is evaluating the assertion that a -lpthread directive makes
    all the POSIX.1-1996 and UNIX98 threads symbols
    visible and that some implementations may have to provide additional
    linker directives when compiling for compilation models which are not
    the system defaults. We therefore recommend that a waiver be granted
    on the basis of a test suite deficiency.

    It must be noted however that LD_FLAGS, if used for this purpose, must
    not contain the name of the system's threads library.


    Review Type SA Review
    Start Date null
    Completed null
    Status Complete
    Review Resolution Test Suite Deficiency (TSD)
    Review Conclusion
    This is an agreed Test Suite Deficiency.
