does there is a plan to support powerpc linux platform? thanks . or , if i want to migrate this to powerpc , could you give me some advise? thanks.

It hadn't crossed my mind. I don't have any physical hardware, but if PPC uses normal DWARF unwinding tables it should be pretty easy to make it work. I'll fire up a qemu instance and see how far I get sometime this weekend.

thanks for your reply , i checked some documents about DWARF , i fund that there are some difference between arm and ppc archeture. for arm , it is the same as x86, both are little endian,but ppc is big endian . i will go to dig into more about DWARF unwinding table. if you could point me that how to learn it , i will appreciate it in advance . thanks .
