Description Daniel Drake 2011-10-14 10:14:08 UTC
orc-0.4.15 starts to generate code with nopl instructions which are invalid on Geode and some other processors supported by Fedora. This causes gstreamer-based apps to crash immediately with SIGILL on the OLPC XO-1.

David Schleef has fixed this with:
http://code.entropywave.com/git?p=orc.git;a=patch;h=4f813175b93ba44ba3f91cec28f8393d996ff918

I've confirmed that it solves the problem.

Please could this be added to Fedora? I'm happy to commit/build this.

Actually lets wait on this one, please. I just found another crash also introduced by orc-0.4.15 which is not fixed by the above. I'll report it to the author and get back to you.

Comment 3 Fabian Deutsch 2011-10-15 18:40:47 UTC
Thanks for the report and suggested fixes. I'm on hold to push a new update.

OK, now it seems to be working correctly. 2 fixes are needed:

I tested a RPM built with the attached patch and it no longer crashes.

Comment 5 Fabian Deutsch 2011-10-16 12:57:25 UTC
Thanks for your patch.
I applied it and included another patch, suggested by selinux folks. Could you try the rpms of the following build:
