This file gives information about architectures/operating systems GP has been
compiled on. If your configuration is not listed, it means that nobody sent us
information about it, definitely not that building won't work a priori.
If indeed GP builds successfuly, we'd be grateful if you could notify us
(including a line analogous to the ones below), so that we can accordingly
expand the list.

General notes:
- Arch
 a star (*) in the first column means GP was built using portable kernel.

- Bench, as output by `make bench'
 1) can vary with load, available memory, compiler version ...
 2) is not the actual time spent: bench "nfields" is weighted by 1/5.
 3) An ! present next to the timing means that install() did not work with
 that configuration ([BUG] in 'program' bench)

NOTE: bench timings in version 2.0.11 and 2.0.12 were not correct (given
between parentheses). Add about 25% to running times for comparison with
other versions.

Clock frequency in MHz when known, in BM (BogoMIPS) otherwise.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Notes:
======
(1) uncomment the last PLOTLIBS= in Makefile
(2) same as above, compiled with cc -O2
(3) AIX/POWER versions built with cc options including
      -qarch=com -qtune=601 (any other tuning makes them slower GN)
Addendum (IK): gcc 2.8.1 -O2 -DGCC_INLINE -mtune=604e produces a faster binary

(4) Slightly different results in make bench (last decimal different in
    3 tests, due to a different mulsr())
(6) gcc -fPIC (otherwise /usr/bin/ld will not link the shared library)
(7) the `program' bench fails on "install(addii)". But if the symbol addii
    is declared within extern "C" {} in paridecl.h, it works.

(8) use
CC         = cc -64 -DLONG_IS_64BIT
CFLAGS     = -O -OPT:Olimit=2170
LD         = cc -64
LDFLAGS    = -O -L/usr/lib64
DLLD       = cc -64
DLLDFLAGS  = -shared -elf -no_unresolved -all -L/usr/lib64
CPP        = cc -64 -E -I.

(9) * for gp-dyn: couldn't find a way to produce PIC code with either
  -- HP as, version HP92453-03 UX.10.20.05 (DAVIS) PA-RISC 2.0 Assembler
     (+z, +Z ignored)
  -- gcc-2.8.1 + gas-2.6 (hppa1.1-hp-hpux9.01), using BFD version 2.6
     (-fPIC -shared ignored)

(bad) FIX: in o-hpux.hppa/Makefile, move kernel.o from OBJS to OBJSGP.
Hence kernel.o has to be linked explicitly with all programs compiled with
libpari.sl

    * for gp-sta: remove +z from CFLAGS and LDFLAGS, final link only worked
with the following command line (there has to be a better way...):

cc dummy.c -c
cc -o gp-sta -Wl,-a,archive -O dummy.o [... rest as produced by Configure]

where dummy.c defines three dummy symbols (referenced in static libc):

shl_findsym(){}
 shl_unload(){}
   shl_load(){}

Whatever else I tried, linking failed:

/usr/ccs/bin/ld: Data address is out of range for short load or store
   Reference from:  kernel.o(0x8) [for all symbols defined in level0.s]

(10) compiled without +z flags

(11)
CFLAGS (for egcs)= -O9 -malign-double -fschedule-insns2  -mpentium\
-march=pentium -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-strength-reduce\
-fno-inline-functions -fexpensive-optimizations
CFLAGS (for pgcc)= -O9 -malign-double -mk6   -fomit-frame-pointer\
-fno-strength-reduce -fno-inline-functions

Libc: 5.4.46. egcs/pgcc compiled with Haifa scheduler
Binutils: 2.9.1.0.4 or 2.9.1.0.15

(12) used LD = cc -Wl,-rpath,my_exotic_DLL_path

(13) use /opt/SUNWspro/bin/fpversion to get explicit recommended CFLAGS.

(14) use asmarch=sparcv7
(15) Configure defaults to hpux-none. Use Configure -a and specify the
hppa kernel. Remove +z from compiler flags
(16) CFLAGS = -mk6 -march=i586 -O6
(17) 256kb L2 Cache - Ultra U5
(18) 2  MB L2 Cache - Ultra U10
(19) replace err by pari_err in src/kernel/sparcv7/level0.S [in 2.0.16 or 17]
(20) asmarch incorrectly defaulted to MicroSPARC (bypassed using Configure -a)
(22) same machine as above, native binary compiled with mingw32-gcc-2.95.2
     had to modify Odos/Makefile (to link with readline-4.0). 
     PROBLEMS: 
      * when started from the shell, on ^C GP quits! OK when started from GUI
      * stdin redirection from the shell (gp < file) doesn't work (SEGV in gp).
      * ANSI escape sequences are printed "as is" (so don't enable colors)
(24) same machine as above, using the RSX compatibility package
(25) Xeon
(26) RedHat-7.0 + alpha has a broken glibc-2.1.x [issquare(8388609^2) = 0 !]
     Updating to glibc-2.2 fixes the problem.
(27) gcc-2.95.3 -O + new inline assembler [gcc-2.95.2 and gcc-2.95.3 -O3 both
produce a broken binary]
(28) gp-dyn: add -fPIC to CFLAGS [or linking fails].
     gcc-2.96 fails
(29) added -mcpu=athlon -march=athlon to CFLAGS (very minor speedup).
     Don't know clock frequency for Athlon 1800+ (something like 1500-1600MHz)
