Hi guys.
Have any of you run Kolab on an Opteron box? I finally have one to try
this out on, and it did of course not work right away.
The problem is the db-4.3.29.0-2.5.0. It doesn't detect x86_64 as an x86
machine, so the locking code is broken. I have attached a small patch
that lets x86_64 use the same locking code as 32bit x86. So far it
seems to work, and I believe that the LOCK instruction should be just
as fine on 64bit as on 32bit.
Can anyone with sufficient assembler skillz confirm this :-)
thanks.
