Hi Tom. ... I would guess that the memalign() function does not exist under FreeBSD or requires some header file or library that GGNFS is not specifying. One...
... Ah, good to know. I did some Googling and it appears memalign() does not exist under FreeBSD, and most implementations fake it by making it a stub for...

... Whew. :) ... Looks like the types ulong and ushort need to be defined for BSD. You can edit src/lasieve4/asm/lasieve-asm.h and modify the first line of #if...
... Ok. I guess we'll have to put in an #if !defined(__FreeBSD__) && !defined(__OpenBSD__) && !defined(__NetBSD__)/#endif around those #include <malloc.h>...
Hi Raghu, As I recall, the obvious idea works rather well: Suppose the vectors in question are u and v. (1) Compute the projection of u onto v, say: P(u:v) =...
Hello again, I just realized that my old junkie lattice sieving code is still in GGNFS - although I stopped long before I started making decent progress on the...
Hello, All! I've faced following bug when trying to run procrels on some collectes relations: i build factorbase with lprb=lpra=30 (same setting was used for...
... I can't say that I know what is wrong, but lpbX=30 is *Huge*! For the 202 digit SNFS 100^99+99^100 we can easily get by using lpbX=28. I would think you...
... Hi! In def-par.txt I followed the hints from Greg and limit lvpa/lbpr to 27. The result is excellent. I seldom now need more than two passes with reduction...
It might be a integer overflow, or atleast it looks that way without looking at the code. you might have to check to see if it is unsigned instead of signed. ...
Is there a way to parallelize GGNFS? A friend an I are using it for a school project, and we thought we saw somewhere that there was a way to do it, but we...
Hello, fpgiv! ... Well, running distributed factorisation with ggnfs is not very complicated. (1) Polynomial selection is easy to parallelize: use pol51* tools...
Hello All! Some more details are become available for makefb/procrels problem. Anton traced bug to completePartialRelFact() function (in rels.c). It returns...
Hi Andrei, This seems to be another facet of the known signed/unsigned issues in the code. The -191 occurrs when it tries to verify the factorization of a...
Hello all, Brian wanted me to find out how many people are using VC to compile GGNFS on a regular basis. Each time there are significant changes to the code,...
Hello, ggnfsmonico! Thanks a lot for your answer! ... It seems that I've found cause for this error. It occurs because 'a' member of relation_t structure is...

... I think you have an incompatibility. -march=k8 is used for Pentium processors and __ppc__ is for PowerPC processors. If you are building on a PPC, you...
I have updated the source to build on a PPC G5 with OS X 10.4. I have not tested it yet. You won't need the entirety of the source (which I have zipped)....

It is nice to see that you have solved your problem. There must be another solution that will allow use to use the ASM code as well. Unfortunately I do not...
