Req #81238 [NEW]: PHP 8.1: fiber support missing for Solaris Sparc, configure fails

From: rainer dot jung at kippdata dot de Operating system: Solaris 10 Sparc PHP version: 8.1.0alpha3 Package: *General Issues Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description:PHP 8.1: fiber support missing for Solaris Sparc, configure fails Description: ------------ configure for PHP 8.1 fails on Solaris 10 Sparc with: checking for fiber switching context... configure: error: Unable to determine platform! It seems to imported assembler files from Boost context doe not contain support for Sparc Solaris 10. The sparc architecture is listen under https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_76_0/libs/context/doc/html/context/architectures.html but the OS Solaris is not part of the table. Since it supports ucontext_t, the comment below the table should apply: "If the architecture is not supported but the platform provides ucontext_t, Boost.Context should be compiled with BOOST_USE_UCONTEXT and b2 property context-impl=ucontext." Solaris does support ucontext_t (see "man setcontext"), so it would be nice, if PHP fibers would support this fallbacl mechanism as well. Yes, there are warnings, that such fibers will be slow, but currently, due to the configure failure, there is no more Solaris 10 Sparc support for PHP 8.1 at all. Another option would be to make fibers optional. -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=81238&edit=1 -- Fix committed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81238&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81238&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81238&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81238&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81238&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81238&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81238&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81238&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81238&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81238&r=globals PHP version support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81238&r=phptooold Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81238&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81238&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81238&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81238&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81238&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=81238&r=mysqlcfg
