Re: Potential glibc 2.44 bug for loongarch64

[Michael Tremer <michael.tremer@ipfire.org>]

Hello Vincent,

I am not sure we are looking at a glibc issue here - not in the sense of something being miscompiled.

I have successfully installed the ISO from here in a virtual machine using UTM:

  https://nightly.ipfire.org/next/latest/loongarch64/

It was definitely able to detect the disk and complete the installation. What branch are you building against? Can you confirm that the system has successfully detected all disks?

I noticed I could not install the ISO on loongarch machine after glibc update, if I only revert glibc 2.44 back to 2.43 in the toolchain, no installation issue. I assume IPFire loongarch port would have same issue since the loongfire fork has exact same installer code as IPFire. I filed a bugzilla report to sourceware for glibc.
