On the path to verifying George's atomics patch, I have started just by verifying that I can still build the UNPATCHED trunk on each of the platforms I listed.
I have tried two PPC64/Linux systems so far and am seeing the same problem on both. Though I can pass "make check" both platforms SEGV on mpirun -mca btl sm,self -np 2 examples/ring_c Is this the expected state of the trunk on big-endian systems? I am thinking in particular of http://www.open-mpi.org/community/lists/devel/2014/07/15365.php in which Ralph wrote: > Yeah, my fix won't work for big endian machines - this is going to be an issue across the > code base now, so we'll have to troll and fix it.

Since testing George's patch only requires "make check" I can proceed with that regardless. -Paul On Thu, Jul 31, 2014 at 4:25 PM, George Bosilca <bosi...@icl.utk.edu> wrote: > Awesome, thanks Paul.
