Which OS version uses aarch64v/8? (latest Buster10 is aarch7)

Do you get the same issue under Ubuntu 18.04 LTS? (see https://www.google.com/amp/s/jamesachambers.com/raspberry-pi-ubuntu-server-18-04-2-installation-guide/%3famp)

@megha-an

You used the wrong PORT_DIR. Pointers are recast in the test, and the linux 32-bit version defines ee_ptr_int as a 32-bit type, then recasts as a pointer. This creates the segfault on 64-bit OSes, but also produces a warning which you overlooked (see below). Note I had to manually force make PORT_DIR=linux to recreate the error (had you not specified PORT_DIR, make would have deduced linux64).

E.g., if I force the make PORT_DIR=linux, I get this error:

demouser@pi64 ~/coremark $ ./coremark.exe 
ERROR! Please define ee_ptr_int to a type that holds a pointer!
Segmentation fault

Issuing make or make PORT_DIR=linux64 works fine:

demouser@pi64 ~/coremark $ cat run1.log
