Hi,
The fix for this bug applied in 1.0.3-1 did not resolve the problem, as
the latest libmthca failed again to build on sparc [0] with messages:
cc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I. -g -Wall -D_GNU_SOURCE -g -Wall -O2 -c
src/cq.c -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/src_mthca_la-cq.o
/tmp/cc3nmfCC.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/cc3nmfCC.s:336: Error: Unknown opcode: `sync'
/tmp/cc3nmfCC.s:369: Error: Unknown opcode: `sync'
[...]
This is caused by an incorrect definition of mb() in the infiniband/arch.h
include file. I believe that the correct definition (at least, according
to the /usr/include/asm-sparc/system.h file installed on my system) is
#define mb() __asm__ __volatile__ ("" : : : "memory")
With the simple attached patch libmthca builds successfully on sparc
(I don't have a way to test it due to lack of hardware though).
