|
||||
README.irix - Perl version 5 on Irix systems
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
This document describes various features of Irix that will affect how Perl
|
||||
version 5 (hereafter just Perl) is compiled and/or runs.
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Building 32-bit
|
||||
|
||||
Use
|
||||
|
||||
sh Configure -Dcc='cc -n32'
|
||||
|
||||
to compile Perl 32-bit. Don't bother with -n32 unless you have 7.1
|
||||
or later compilers (use cc -version to check).
|
||||
|
||||
(Building 'cc -n32' is the default.)
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Building 64-bot
|
||||
|
||||
Use
|
||||
|
||||
sh Configure -Dcc='cc -64'
|
||||
|
||||
to compiler Perl 64-bit.
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 About Compiler Versions
|
||||
|
||||
Some IRIX cc versions, e.g. 7.3.1.1m (try cc -version) have been known
|
||||
to have issues (coredumps) when compiling perl.c. If you've used
|
||||
-OPT:fast_io=ON and this happens, try removing it. If that fails, or
|
||||
you didn't use that, then try adjusting other optimization options
|
||||
(-LNO, -INLINE, -O3 to -O2, etcetera). The compiler bug has been
|
||||
reported to SGI. (Allen Smith <easmith@beatrice.rutgers.edu>)
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Linker Problems
|
||||
|
||||
If you get complaints about so_locations then search in the file
|
||||
hints/irix_6.sh for "lddflags" and do the suggested adjustments.
|
||||
(David Billinghurst <David.Billinghurst@riotinto.com.au>)
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Malloc
|
||||
|
||||
Do not try to use Perl's malloc, this will lead into very mysterious
|
||||
errors (especially with -Duse64bitall).
|
||||
|
||||
=head2 Building with threads
|
||||
|
||||
