Re: [OMPI devel] Mac OS X 10.4.x users?
Fun fact: we cause configure to fail for OS X <= 10.4 anyway: https://github.com/open-mpi/ompi/blob/master/configure.ac#L328-L347 According to the comment, we do this because of a known-bad implementation of pty in the OS X kernel that causes kernel panics. So I think we're definitely safe removing a OS X 10.4.x workaround. > On Sep 28, 2018, at 2:18 PM, Ralph H Castain wrote: > > Good lord - break away!! > >> On Sep 28, 2018, at 11:11 AM, Barrett, Brian via devel >> wrote: >> >> All - >> >> In trying to clean up some warnings, I noticed one (around pack/unpack in >> net/if.h) that is due to a workaround of a bug in MacOS X 10.4.x and >> earlier.

[OMPI devel] Mac OS X 10.4.x users?
All - In trying to clean up some warnings, I noticed one (around pack/unpack in net/if.h) that is due to a workaround of a bug in MacOS X 10.4.x and earlier. The simple way to remove the warning would be to remove the workaround, which would break the next major version of Open MPI on 10.4.x and earlier on 64 bit systems. 10.5.x was released 11 years ago and didn’t drop support for any 64 bit systems. I posted a PR which removes support for 10.4.x and earlier (through the README) and removes the warning generated workaround (https://github.com/open-mpi/ompi/pull/5803). Does anyone object to breaking 10.4.x and earlier? Brian ___ devel mailing list devel@lists.open-mpi.org https://lists.open-mpi.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
