Support for PPC 7447a (PowerBook G4 1.67GHz) #145

Open Menotdan opened 5 years ago

Menotdan commented 5 years ago

I am trying to build Node natively on my PowerBook G4 1.67ghz but I'm having some problems with STATIC_ASSERTs, padding sizes, and kSmi sizes.

Also the floating point instructions may or may not work(I don't have a successful build yet, any information on whether or not the 7447a has the right floating point instructions would be appreciated)

Is it safe to remove the STATIC_ASSERTs? (I'm assuming probably not and that I'll have to find the problem with the setting of the constants)

It most likely doesn't based on https://github.com/ibmruntimes/node/issues/14 and https://github.com/ibmruntimes/v8ppc/issues/97.
