[debian-mysql] Bug#972059: mariadb-10.5: FTBFS on sparc64: test after build shows binaries faulty, segfaults/timeouts

[Otto Kekäläinen]

Source: mariadb-10.5
Version: 1:10.5.5-3
Forwarded: https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/MDEV-23916
Tags: upstream, confirmed, help, ftbfs
Severity: normal
Justification: source did not build work before, so nothing regressed,
and this is an unofficial arch in Debian
User: debian-sparc at lists.debian.org
Usertags: sparc64, sparc

The test suite that is run immediately after the sparc64 build fails
as the binaries timeout or segfault. This has been reported to
upstream, where you can find more details.

This bug is filed mainly to keep track of this exception in Debian builds.

If there are any sparc64 experts in Debian who could look into this,
and report their findings directly upstream at jira.mariadb.org so
that an improved test (or underlying code fix) can be produced, it
would be appreciated.

If you have a patch:
- Universal fixes are welcome directly upstream at
https://github.com/mariadb/server
- Debian-only fixes are welcome as Merge Requests at
