Building LFS 8.1 on my Samsung laptop, I was surprised to see a large number of math errors in the chapter 6 glibc check:
The failed tests were: float-cabs, float-fma, float32-cabs, float32-fma, float64x-acosh, float64x-atan, float64x-atan2, float64x-cacos, float64x-casin, float64x-casinh, float64x-catanh, float64x-clog, float64x-clog10, float64x-finite-acosh, float64x-finite-atan, float64x-finite-atan2, float64x-finite-cacos, float64x-finite-casin, float64x-finite-casinh, float64x-finite-catanh, float64x-finite-clog, float64x-finite-clog10, float64x-finite-log10, float64x-log10, ifloat64x-acosh, ifloat64x-atan2, ifloat64x-cacos, ifloat64x-casin, ifloat64x-casinh, ifloat64x-catanh, ifloat64x-clog, ifloat64x-clog10, ildouble-acosh, ildouble-atan2, ildouble-cacos, ildouble-casin, ildouble-casinh, ildouble-catanh, ildouble-clog, ildouble-clog10, ildouble-log10, ldouble-acosh, ldouble-atan, ldouble-atan2, ldouble-cacos, ldouble-casin, ldouble-casinh, ldouble-catanh, ldouble-clog, ldouble-clog10, ldouble-finite-acosh, ldouble-finite-atan, ldouble-finite-atan2, ldouble-finite-cacos, ldouble-finite-casin, ldouble-finite-casinh, ldouble-finite-catanh, ldouble-finite-clog, ldouble-finite-clog10, ldouble-finite-log10, ldouble-log10. I've never had so many failures before. ISTR that earlier editions of LFS warned about failures in maths tests on non-intel non-amd processors (the Samsung has a Via nano) but 8.1 doesn't mention this. Do I need to rebuild and, if so, can anyone suggest what parameters I might need to use to avoid a repetition? -- Hazel Russman -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page Do not top post on this list.
