(It's missing the PCLMULQDQ instruction flag.)<br /> <br /> I went through the trouble of setting up a test server on a MiniPC (Intel NUC NUC6AYH), and it does run there. Though, I forgot to run lscpu for the instruction flags... so I searched for it online, and that NUC's CPU does indeed have the flag.<br /> <br /> I then actually compiled the source on an even older Dell Latitude D830 and executed it. Same illegal instruction (SIGILL) as on the aging server. It does not have the flag.<br /> <br /> It does run on my main laptop that has a high-end Sandy Bridge CPU, which has the flag.<br /> <br /> --<br /> <br /> From the AMD server and main laptop logs:<br /> <br /> MariaDB 11.4: InnoDB: Using generic crc32 instructions<br /> MariaDB 11.8: InnoDB: Using crc32 + pclmulqdq instructions
