[openssl-dev] [openssl.org #3931] OpenSSL 1.0.2(c, d) hangs on Sun T3 in OPENSSL_cpuid_setup()

[Misaki.Miyashita]

Hi Rick,

Can you run the truss(1) command when you run "openssl version" as follows?

i.e.
% truss -lf -u libcrypto:: -u libpkcs11:: -o /tmp/truss.out openssl version

The output will tell you more information about the function calls made 
by the openssl(1) application.

Thank you,

The process continues normally when sent either a SIGBUS or SIGILL.

There's a partial dtrace listing below, generated by my colleague Carolyn, with the last output lines showing the sigaction calls for SIGILL then SIGBUS (the trailing sigaction calls are in the reverse order in the code).
