Created attachment 1192955 [details]
Make pioneer ExcludeArch for Power and s390

Description of problem: pioneer uses some x86-only asm instruction which do not work on Power or s390.

../../contrib/profiler/Profiler.h: In constructor 'BVHTree::BVHTree(int, const objPtr_t*, const Aabb*)':
../../contrib/profiler/Profiler.h:158:51: error: impossible register constraint in 'asm'
     asm volatile("rdtsc" : "=a" (__a), "=d" (__d));


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): all versions are affected


How reproducible: always on ppc-koji and s390-koji


Actual results: http://ppc.koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=3630383

Comment 1 Ben Rosser 2016-08-22 16:54:46 UTC 
It looks like this might be fixable without disabling building on those architectures; on ARM, the code sets a flag in the profiler [1] that disables the use of those instructions [2], and the spec has already been modified to set it on aarch64 too (in addition to other stuff) [3]. Possibly the same modifications will enable building on these architectures?

Comment 2 Rafael Fonseca 2016-08-22 17:25:26 UTC 
I'll try it out and report back.
Comment 3 Rafael Fonseca 2016-10-26 13:55:10 UTC 
pioneer is now ExclusiveArch in Fedora because of [1]. So I'm closing this bug.
