V doesn't (currently) support ppc, so you will need to do a 2-step process.
First, compile V to C:
v -o name.c name.v
Then, compile the C file as you normally would
powerpc64le-rhel7-linux-gnu-gcc -o name name.c
Or whatever your favorite options may be.
I would also recommend updating your OS to something more recent... rhel 9 has been our for several months.
But name.c
depends on libgc.a
.
Does it need to be built manually?
Will the V dev team plan to support this kind of cross-build scenario?
In general we'll need support from the community to be able to implement and maintain these kinds of lesser known targets. So if anyone reads this and is capable of fixing it, please chip in.
@harens & @barracuda156, would you be interested in collaborating with @likema on this due to your involvement also in PPC hardware?
@ylluminate From what I understand, ppc64le
is substantially different from ppc
and ppc64
on Darwin, but I am interested in the topic. Thank you for tagging me.

Yes, ppc64le
is an architecture of Power 8/9 on Linux.
Not only ppc64le
, but also loongarch64
cross-compile need to be supported.
I suggest something is similar with CMake toolchain file:
set(CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME Linux)
set(CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR ppc64le)
set(CMAKE_C_COMPILER powerpc64le-rhel7-linux-gnu-gcc)
set(CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER powerpc64le-rhel7-linux-gnu-g++)
@likema By the way, why cross, why not build natively?

For saving cost

@likema But does it build natively? For ppc
it does. ppc64
not sure.
By the way, I am interested to implement ppc64
support, if it is lacking. Primarily for BE, but LE should be easier in fact.

I also have powerpc64-rhel6-linux-gnu-gcc
, which is big endian.
All of my cross compilers are built on Linux x86_64 by crosstool-ng

@JalonSolov It actually builds on PPC systems (ppc32
at least): https://trac.macports.org/ticket/64913
Should have said - it doesn't currently support cross-compiling to ppc. If you can run it natively, it'll be fine... but the question was specifically about cross-compiling.
Hi,
I have a cross compiler
powerpc64le-rhel7-linux-gnu-gcc
.How to cross-compile V source file by this cross compiler?
Thanks.
