Openssl 3.0.2- Build error - catgets_failed

[Gaurav Mittal11]

I tried same commands and same setting with root access, seems like I pass that error.
Can you help why its not giving any error and not even generating crypto/chacha/libcrypto-lib-chacha-ia64.o  file

I have cut below command, it is trying to put all 100 .o file into one static librray and give error.

All I can say at the moment is that we haven't seen this with OpenSSL 1.1.1n on HP-UX 11i. We haven't tried building any 3.x versions on that platform yet (and maybe we won't have to, which would be great).

Can you post the failing .s file somewhere? Maybe looking at it will provide some clue. Those messages look like they might be syntax cascade errors, so it's possible the Perl script tossed something bogus in there.

We do have HP-UX assembler expertise here (in the compiler team, since we've had HP-UX support since the PA-RISC days at least, quite possibly since the 68K/FOCUS days) - not just Itanium experience, that is, but some working knowledge of the as program on that platform. I've battled through a bit of Itanium assembly now and then myself. So I may be able to find someone who can figure out where it's gone wrong.
