Interesting. I guess we'd want to fix this: unaligned access is so slow. I'd break out a debugger and have a look. Or at least I would if debuginfo weren't broke. :-(On Thu, 2008-01-17 at 15:46 +0100, Lennert Buytenhek wrote:Cool! Is there any place that documents the changes necessary for 2.3 so that we can also provide a (separate) set of 2.3 rpms for F8?Should in theory just be http://people.redhat.com/caolanm/patches/workspace.armoabiport01.patch + http://people.redhat.com/caolanm/patches/workspace.armeabi01.patch Though if OOo fails to register components or start up then you might need to make additional changes to some makefile.mks that reference "VERSIONMAP" to reuse the i386 map files for arm, all of which was fixed up for 2.4. I don't remember if its strictly necessary to fix that in 2.3 or not.[RKh] I'v just tried installing the RPM packages; at the beginning it didn't work well until I noticed that the binaries generates lots of unaligned accesses. ARM kernel I'm using doesn't fix that for the user-space by default; so after 'echo 3 > /proc/cpu/alignment' and running soffice and importing a Microsoft word doc I got the following amount of exceptions - -bash-3.2# cat /proc/cpu/alignment User: 125929 System: 0 Skipped: 0 Half: 27982 Word: 21780 DWord: 74940 Multi: 0 User faults: 3 (fixup+warn) Any idea where those unaligned accesses are coming from? Any idea if this can be fixed too? Andrew. |
