Heh, I didn't even notice that. I just looked at all of the libc calls at the top of the backtrace, but of course that is just from assert() on up. So now it seems doubly odd to me, since it is running the same regex library that is used elsewhere. -Peff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

You probably want to place such manual settings in config.mak.

So either there is a bug (but nobody else has reported anything on any other platform) or your system regex library has some problem with what we are feeding it. The simplest solution may be to compile with: NO_REGEX=YesPlease which will build and use the glibc implementation in compat/regex instead. -Peff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

Problems with git 1.8.5.3 on HP-UX 11.11
In order to set up automated builds and tests of the CMake toolchain (www.cmake.org) on HP-UX 11.11 (hppa) and 11.23 (ia64), I needed to install git on those platforms. The latest binary package available from hpux.connect.org.uk is version 1.8.5.3, which I installed with all of its dependencies. When trying to set up the CMake build, I ran into the first problem: $ git pull origin error: cannot create thread: Function is not available fatal: fetch-pack: unable to fork off sideband demultiplexer So I examined the git source package and found that the author of the HP-UX port forgot to set PTHREAD_CFLAGS=-mt in config.mak.autogen to enable threading. I added this setting and rebuilt git. On 11.23, everything was fine now - no further issues. On 11.11 though, git now crashed with a Bus Error. Some debugging showed that this was due to a multithreading issue - obviously some dependency library has not been built as reentrant code. To fix this, I disabled threading by setting PTHREAD_CFLAGS= NO_PTHREADS=YesPlease in config.mak.autogen and rebuilt git again. After that, "git pull" and "git fetch" worked correctly and I could proceed to set up the CMake build and test. Alas, the CMake tests include a test case "CTest.UpdateGIT" that creates a git repository, creates a submodule, imports some content and attempts to check out a revision. At that point, the command git submodule init fails with the output Assertion failed: err == REG_ESPACE, file compat/regex/regexec.c, line 1096 No submodule mapping found in .gitmodules for path 'module' and the stacktrace of the resulting core dump is #0 0xc020ced0 in kill+0x10 () from /usr/lib/libc.2 #1 0xc01a7f84 in raise+0x24 () from /usr/lib/libc.2 #2 0xc01e9308 in abort_C+0x160 () from /usr/lib/libc.2 #3 0xc01e9364 in abort+0x1c () from /usr/lib/libc.2 #4 0xc0176998 in _assert+0x178 () from /usr/lib/libc.2 #5 0x205fa0 in check_matching+0x290 () #6 0x2053b8 in re_search_internal+0x128 () #7 0x204ac0 in regexec+0xc8 () #8 0x4da40 in collect_config+0x60 () #9 0x108b30 in get_value+0xd8 () #10 0x108efc in git_parse_source+0x1bc () #11 0x10ac70 in do_config_from+0x70 () #12 0x10ad3c in git_config_from_file+0x8c () #13 0x10b274 in git_config_with_options+0x84 () #14 0x4dd6c in get_value+0x224 () #15 0x4eed4 in cmd_config+0x744 () #16 0x17150 in run_builtin+0x110 () #17 0x1739c in handle_internal_command+0xcc () #18 0x174fc in run_argv+0x2c () #19 0x17724 in main+0x194 () Since I'm no git expert (I'm not even a regular git user in fact), there's nothing left for me to do except asking for help...
