Description Balint Cristian 2008-01-06 07:45:32 UTC 
Description of problem:
On fedora sparc build fail.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
hdf5-1.6.6-3

How reproducible:
on a sparc machine with fedora port:
rpmbuild -bb hdf5.spec --target=sparc

  
Actual results:
1) total crash of H5detect fortran autocionfig helper routine.
2) incorect type declaration specific for sparc lead to compile errors.

Expected results:
1) build smooth.
2) pass all tests.

Additional info:

Attacehd 2 patches.

First one patch:
 It fix proper SEGV signal return in case of bus-error or seg-fault. That mean
that fortran part is on his own autodetect for H5detect failed, but it must bail
out with 0 error result during compile time, and no header template is generated.
 This patch should fix any other arch wich cannot relay on H5detect tool during
compile time, so i think it would be smart to drag it in.

Second one patch:
It declare some proper custom types for sparc specific so fortran compilation
should go smooth.

Package compile and package self tests went smooth on my u10 sparc box ;-)

Orion, you might want to file booth for of hdf/hdf5 ones upstream ?
Or let me please know if you want to do it for you, that will be no problem.

BTW, first one patch make sense for rpmbuild wich is pick if a tool/script
return bad signal to rpmbuild, whole rpmbuild bail out. i think upstream folks
like to do evrything manualy so they dont care of signal return, or something
ike that could be my explanation of this lattent bug.
