[jira] [Created] (MESOS-4577) libprocess can not run on 16-byte aligned stack mandatory architecture(aarch64 ppc64)

AndyPang created MESOS-4577:
-------------------------------

             Summary: libprocess can not run on 16-byte aligned stack mandatory architecture(aarch64 ppc64) 
                 Key: MESOS-4577
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-4577
             Project: Mesos
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: containerization, libprocess, stout
         Environment: Linux 10-175-112-202 4.1.6-rc3.aarch64 #1 SMP Mon Oct 12 01:43:03 UTC 2015 aarch64 aarch64 aarch64 GNU/Linux
            Reporter: AndyPang


libprocess 3rdparty stout library(in linux.hpp) packaging a syscall "clone" :
{code:title=clone|borderStyle=solid}
inline pid_t clone(const lambda::function<int()>& func, int flags)
{
  // Stack for the child.
  // - unsigned long long used for best alignment.
  // - 8 MiB appears to be the default for "ulimit -s" on OSX and Linux.
  //
  // NOTE: We need to allocate the stack dynamically. This is because
  // glibc's 'clone' will modify the stack passed to it, therefore the
  // stack must NOT be shared as multiple 'clone's can be invoked
  // simultaneously.
  int stackSize = 8 * 1024 * 1024;
  unsigned long long *stack =
    new unsigned long long[stackSize/sizeof(unsigned long long)];

  pid_t pid = ::clone(
      childMain,
      &stack[stackSize/sizeof(stack[0]) - 1],  // stack grows down.
      flags,
      (void*) &func);

  // If CLONE_VM is not set, ::clone would create a process which runs in a
  // separate copy of the memory space of the calling process. So we destroy the
  // stack here to avoid memory leak. If CLONE_VM is set, ::clone would create a
  // thread which runs in the same memory space with the calling process.
  if (!(flags & CLONE_VM)) {
    delete[] stack;
  }

  return pid;
}
{code}
syscal "clone" parameter stack is 8-byte aligned,so if in 16-byte aligned stack mandatory architecture(aarch64 ppc64) it will get error.
