The bug report says the 8171M and 8272CL have the problem. After applying the simple Intel approach Natanael is referring to, I was able to run on the 8171M (I have a run log to confirm it).
I used the patch from the bug report: https://bugs.busybox.net/show_bug.cgi?id=15236 shaNI = ((ebx >> 28) & 2) - 1; /* bit 29 -> 1 or -1 */ Seems a lot more complicated than intel's approach: shaNI = ((ebx >> 29) & 1); > On 30 Mar 2023, at 5:09 PM, Natanael Copa <[email protected]> wrote: > > On Wed, 29 Mar 2023 15:07:49 +0200 > Denys Vlasenko <[email protected]> wrote: > >> On Wed, Mar 1, 2023 at 12:01*PM alice <[email protected]> wrote: >>> On Tue Feb 28, 2023 at 11:17 PM CET, wrote: >>>> I'm having an intermittent issue with "BusyBox v1.36.0 (2023-01-03 22:49:12 >>>> UTC)" (the one from the Docker image busybox:musl) when running on amd64 >>>> GitHub >>>> actions runner VMs (azure). >>>> >>>> When I use sha256sum it is getting terminated with SIGILL, Illegal >>>> instruction.
