ppc64le support #211

Open sumitd2 opened 9 months ago

sumitd2 commented 9 months ago

Hi team,

I belong to the IBM Power porting team. We recently developed patches for the latest tagged version of luajit2 [v2.1-20230911], and then built and tested it successfully on ppc64le using the luajit2-test-suite. We would now like to upstream the patches to the master branch [v2.1-agentzh]. Apparently the support for ppc64le currently does not exist in [v2.1-agentzh] because it has been overwritten by Mike Pall's latest changes to luajit master.

Can you tell us if you plan to restore ppc64le support? And is there a way to ensure its not overwritten if there are more changes in future to luajit master?

Thanks. cc: @seth-priya

@sumitd2 We didn't have the time or energy to maintain the ppc64le branch. We can only synchronize upstream code as much as possible to ensure that the ppc64le code is not overwritten.

@sumitd2 It would be great if IBM personnel could participate in the code review when synchronizing with the upstream code.

Hi @zhuizhuhaomeng, we are discussing this internally. Will get back to you. Thanks.
