Hi Anton,


(moving to ppc-embedded since it might be of interesting for other 
8xx users)

Apply this patch to glibc, and recompile:

rm -f glibc/sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc32/memset.S


The PPC32 dbcz semantics don't seem to work properly on 8xx
in all cases. Removing the '.S' file makes glibc fall back on
the .c implementation. 

Hi Jason, 

That was a quick response - thanks.

Two questions:

- Do you happen to know about details of dcbz's (mis)behaviour on 8xx? 

I ask that mainly because I worry about in-kernel dcbz users.

- Shouldnt upstream glibc have that fixed for 8xx by now?
