[Maria-developers] OSX fix need on MariaDB-10.5
Mac lovers (who can use C/C++ and a debugger), As your MariaDB developers are hard at work getting 10.5 ready for you, unfortunately a bug has slipped into the 10.5 branch making it unusable on OSX (at least that's what it looks like on the CI infrastructure). The bug report is here: https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/MDEV-22173 As the time of developers is a little short as is the availability of OSX hardware, I'm hoping some of you are able to spend a few hours tackling this task to understand it better, and if possible, create patch. Steps: 1. build environment https://mariadb.com/kb/en/Build_Environment_Setup_for_Mac/ 2. clone the source git clone --branch 10.5 https://github.com/MariaDB/server.git mariadb-server cd mariadb-server git submodule update --recursive --init 3. build instructions https://mariadb.com/kb/en/generic-build-instructions/ (you don't need to install) 4. test (from build directory) mysql-test/mysql-test-run main.select might be useful here: --debugger=NAME or --gdb client-debugger=NAME or client-gdb To collaborative share your findings and to ask for further help MariaDB's community chat stream has been created for you. https://mariadb.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/118759-general/topic/Get.20OSX.... To paraphrase J.F.Kennedy ask not what your database server community can do for you — ask what you can do for your database server community. Keep the community spirit going, Daniel Black -- Sent as a community member who noticed OSX failures and that everyone is busy
You don't have hardware to work on your own supported platform? Or you can't figure it out? Smh. On Mon, Apr 27, 2020, 10:36 PM Daniel Black <daniel@linux.ibm.com> wrote:

I didn't have hardware, However thanks to Etienne Guesnet AIX was having the same fault and came up with this patch which allows most of the OSX tests on travis to pass: https://github.com/MariaDB/server/pull/1518 A few more details in the jira issue: https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/MDEV-22173 Hoping this can be merged soon because its a fairly simple fix.
