Memory Debugging on IA64
2008.04.24- Posted by Mario Niebla |  2 comments
Hello all, I'm new to working on Itanium...and while porting some x86/x86_64 code to ia64, it seems I've run into some memory problems that didnt exist on the previous platforms.

I noticed Valgrind and Purify dont seem have ia64 ports. So let me ask all of you...what memory debugging tools are you using on ia64??

Using x86 libraries over Itanium
2008.04.16- Posted by Javier Forero |  1 comment
I'm developing an application over IA64. The problem is that my applications uses a library (.so, .a) that is compiled for x86 systems, and the supplier haven't planned to support the IA64 in a shor time. What can Ido?

presentations and photos from the Shanghai Many Core Workshop
2008.04.19- Posted by Mark K. Smith |  Post a comment
Gelato is pleased to announce the great success of the Shanghai Many Core
Workshop held at the end of March. This workshop could not have been
possible without participation from our distinguished speakers and
discussion leaders, our partnership with Fudan University, and support from
our sponsors, HP and Intel.

The Shanghai Many Core Workshop website has been
updated to include:
- Downloadable Presentations
- Photographs
- Final Program
- Attendee List
- A summary of Workshop Conclusions

If you are interested, we have set up a new mailing list at
www.parallel-programming.org to continue discussions about many-core
parallel programming. The parallel-programming.org website will be formally
launched in the May/June timeframe (currently the mailing list sign-up is
the only thing that can be found there). This site will track global
parallel-programming research, both from academia and industry.

HP zx6000 question: what faster cpus can be installed
2005.10.28- Posted by tony |  9 comments
Hi.

I have a HP zx6000 with 2x 900mhz CPU. Looking to upgrade
the cpus.

Is this a complete list of the Itanium2 chips released?
www.cpu-world.com/sspec/Itanium%202.html

I believe I'm limited to 400mhz bus speeds but I wasn't sure if a 1.8ghz part had been released?

As far as the 1.6ghz is concerned (from the above) it looks like it was available in:
3mb cache (2 steppings) SL7EC SL7FQ
6mb cache SL7EB
9mb cache SL87H

Are all of these compatible with the zx6000? Any steppings problematic defect wise? Is specific HP packaging required or are all of the chips (from any hardware vendor, say bought of eBay) compatible?

URL pointers welcomed.

Linux on Merced
2008.03.02- Posted by Alexei Gerasimov |  2 comments
Hello!

I've been a couple of months in search for a Linux distribution that will run on my Itanium I Merced based machine (BigSur reference design, if it is of any importance). I've heard of "freely available" Red Hat Linux 7.1 and 7.2 distros that should boot on Merced, but couldn't find no disk images in free download. I'd be really grateful if anyone could point me to somewhere where I could obtain any Merced-bootable distribution, either of Red Hat, or whatever else (White Box?)
