Reopen Issue

When running setup-ds-admin, the script fails during directory server creation:

[root@ldapsrv01 ~]# setup-ds-admin
 [---snip---]
Are you ready to set up your servers? [yes]:
Creating directory server . . .
Could not import LDIF file '/tmp/ldif2msatd.ldif'.  Error: 35328.  Output: importing data ...
Bus error
Error: Could not create directory server instance 'ldapsrv01'.
Exiting . . .
Log file is '/tmp/setup4EkQUt.log'

Tracing through the script, I determined that the bus error is coming when script calls 'ns-slapd -D /etc/dirsrv/slapd-$(hostname) -i /tmp/ldifXXXXXX.ldif'

Running this in gdb results in:

[root@ldapsrv01 ~]# gdb /usr/sbin/ns-slapd

    at ../ldap/servers/slapd/utf8compare.c:72
72              if (MY8THBITFILTER & *uip) {
(gdb)

Which, as you can see, is in the slapi_has8thBit() function in ldap/servers/slapd/utf8compare.c

After backing out the patch generated from Trac ticket #346, ldif2db and, of course, the setup-ds-admin script both work as expected.

I'm running on Debian Wheezy sparc64 and building with gcc 4.6.3 and I'm compiling against libnspr4 version 4.9.2-1+deb7u1, straight from the wheezy repos.

I've confirmed that the slapi_has8thBit() function is identical in the current master branch in git, BTW, so this bug really applies to all versions of 389 since 1.2.11.

Makes ns-slapd 1.3.0.3 and later work on Debian Sparc64
fix_slapi_has8thBit.patch

Actually, I only backed out the portion of the patch that affects ldap/servers/slapd/utf8compare.c, not the whole thing. I'm attaching the patch I applied to make 389 work on Debian Sparc64

I see. We could back off the patch. Thanks.

Description: The following change is not generic beyond x86 and x86_64 architecture.
{{{
commit c0151f78509c35250095da6e2785842337963008
Trac Ticket #346 - Slow ldapmodify operation time for large
quantities of multi-valued attribute values
3) In slapi_has8thBit, instead of checking the 8th bit one byte
by one byte, check 4 bytes at one time.
}}}
Putting the change into:
{{{

if (defined(CPU_x86) || defined(CPU_x86_64))

}}}
