No avail. Using the linux-image-4.12.0-2-parisc package, the behaviour
is quite the same. There is however not even a CONFIG_64BIT option in
/boot/config-4.12.0-2-parisc. In vanilla kernel, this option becomes
visible only once the "Processor Type" is changed away from the value
"PA7000/PA7100" (CONFIG_PA700) Debian uses, to "PA8000 and up"
(CONFIG_PA8X00) - a setting that worked fine for me in the past years.
Also, I tried to find when the rsyslog build last succeeded, and
unfortunately could not find any sign it ever did in the past years. So
when I said "since July", count this as a memory error.
My wild guess is the code[which?] uses certain instructions the CPU
cannot handle. For reference, here is /proc/cpuinfo:
processor : 0
cpu family : PA-RISC 2.0
cpu : PA8600 (PCX-W+)
cpu MHz : 552.000000
capabilities : os32 os64 nva_supported (0x03)
model : 9000/785/C3600
model name : Allegro W+
hversion : 0x00005cf0
sversion : 0x00000481
I-cache : 512 KB
D-cache : 1024 KB (WB, direct mapped)
ITLB entries : 160
DTLB entries : 160 - shared with ITLB
bogomips : 1099.36
But I could use an idea where to look next. Compiler? Kernel?
