OK, thanks for the patch, it fixed compilation errors.
Just to let you know, there is a bug in some of the benchmarks - longjmp.c and
siglongjmp.c
int
benchmark(void *tsd, result_t *res)
{
int i = 0;
jmp_buf env;
(void) setjmp(env);
i++;
if (i < lm_optB)
longjmp(env, 0);
res->re_count = i;
return (0);
}
On NetBSD sparc64, compiled with gcc and -O2 optimisations, the benchmark goes
into infinite loop, because of the way automatic variables are handled after
calling longjmp(), i.e. their value is indeterminate, which is affected by
compiler optimisations. In this case, I observed that variable i was
incremented to some large number, but then reset to 0.
To fix this, you'd need to declare i as 'volatile'
Richard Stevens explains this very well in his "Advanced Programming in the
Unix Environment" on page 178
