G'Day, I am requesting help in resolving an issue on the HPE NonStop platform in OpenSSH 7.1 P2 in the regression suite for all dd-size above 32k. Previous tests are all passing, but in the for-loop inside regress/transfer.sh, when s is 64k, the command: dd if=$DATA obs=${s} 2> /dev/null | \ ${SSH} -q -$p -F $OBJ/ssh_proxy somehost "cat >

Nevermind this message. The issue is a platform utility malfunctioning. Not an rsync issue. Randall S. Becker, Managing Director, Nexbridge Inc. +1.416.984.9826 From: Randall S.

Hi All, I finally got around to trying to test the 7.7p1 release on the HPE NonStop Platform. 7.6p1 worked just fine - no issues at all. In 7.7p1, when the agent test ran, the following happened (prior tests worked perfectly): run test agent.sh ... Couldn't open logfile /home/git/openssh-portable/regress/ssh.log: Permission denied agent fwd failed (exit code 1) failed simple agent test

I'd also note that the patches for 3.4.0 were made available to 81 different vendors via VINCE since 18th December (under embargo to give time for vendors to prepare). It is unfortunate that it didn't cover the platform you are building for. What platform is it btw?

This happens on NonStop x86 and ia64. I have been building/packaging Rsync for years ? almost a decade in fact. I think this happened once before this year, in fact. It is equivalent to the more portable malloc/free, which I would prefer to have in this series even if it has to be wrapped in a #if defined (__TANDEM) block. This call is considered not portable and allocates on the stack

Another issue here in findme.c. strlcpy() is a BSD-only method and definitely not portable. Please consider other platforms when creating patches. I can provide a patch to this patch also.

Hi All, Just reporting in on how testing has gone. After reducing obs to 32k max and banners to a max of 10000, plus some minor platform changes - root is not 0, for example, all normal tests have passed except for: multiplex - hangs at the end of this output. We had a similar issue that single reads of data were not working in dd but that does not seem to be the case in this test suite. test

Here is my fix for the situation: diff --git a/popt/findme.c b/popt/findme.c index ac4cbae..4fe8a18 100644 --- a/popt/findme.c +++ b/popt/findme.c @@ -25,12 +25,23 @@ const char * findProgramPath(const char * argv0) if (path == NULL) return NULL; bufsize = strlen(path) + 1; +#if defined __TANDEM + start = pathbuf = malloc(bufsize); +#else start = pathbuf =

The popt changes came from upstream popt. We have Solaris and FreeBSD CI tests, along with linux, but don't have a method for testing other platforms. If you submit a PR to fix this, please consider a way we can test the fix in CI.

Greetings, I am porting the openssh-portable 6.8 release to the HP NonStop (NSE) platform. Prior versions were no real problem, with minor tweeks. However, with the inclusion of regress/netcat.c, which depends on arpa/telnet.h, we have an issue. Unfortunately, the platform does not have this file, nor anything like it - telnet is done rather differently. We do have a version of netcat (0.7.1

the alloca comes from the new popt release. What system are you having an issue with?
