Re: [Hyperscan] Compile fails at unit-hyperscan stage
by Matt Grimm
You're right on both counts -- I was able to compile successfully with
-DFAT_RUNTIME=off, and my symbols look like so:
$ nm CMakeFiles/hs_exec_avx2.dir/src/crc32.c.o
0000000000000000 T Crc32c_ComputeBuf
I'm not so concerned with figuring out why the fat runtime isn't building
at this point. I'm happy to pass along other system details if it helps you
debug the issue, though.
$ dpkg -s gcc | grep Version
Version: 4:5.2.1-3ubuntu1
$ dpkg -s binutils | grep Version
Version: 2.25.1-6ubuntu2
$ dpkg -s libc6 | grep Version
Version: 2.21-0ubuntu4.3
Thanks!

Compile fails at unit-hyperscan stage
by Matt Grimm
I'm trying to compile Hyperscan 4.4.0 on Ubuntu 14.04 and am getting a
bunch of undefined reference errors during the "Linking CXX executable
../bin/unit-hyperscan" stage. I was previously able to compile and run
Hyperscan 4.3.2.
Any idea what's causing this?
Thanks,
m.
