This reminded me of an earlier report in which chainlint.pl was
producing no output for "actual" on Linux for s390x processors. That
was due to /proc/cpuinfo producing results which the script wasn't
expecting. It was fixed by 1f51b77f4f (chainlint.pl: fix /proc/cpuinfo
regexp, 2022-11-22)[1]. At the time of that patch, I noted[2]:
A separate problem is that chainlint.pl doesn't fall back to a
sensible non-zero value if ncores() returns 0 (or some other
nonsense value). That is, of course, outside the scope of the
well-focused problem fix which this standalone patch addresses. I
may end up submitting a fix separately to make it fall back
sensibly.
which probably explains the behavior you're experiencing. To fix it,
we'll need to see the output you get from:
cat /proc/cpuinfo
