The 8u changes look ok to me.

I have no issue with this minimal change for hotspot.
I suppose I can also volunteer to sponsor it. :)
Is the plan to also do the JDK changes under the same bug? That will
need build-dev involvement.
Still waiting to see if this will these hotspot-only changes or whether
there is more in the works.
[ccing build-dev]
Yes, as I said here:
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/hotspot-dev/2015-February/017175.html
there are JDK changes but what I had to begin with was for 7 as that's where
the bug was reported. While the HotSpot changes are pretty much the same on 7,
8 and 9, doing the JDK side has basically been a complete re-write, especially
as, unlike 7, 8 has very little recognition of ppc64le.
I now have these changes working on 8u31:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~andrew/rh1191652/root
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~andrew/rh1191652/jdk
I can re-base these onto whichever OpenJDK 9 tree is appropriate and push when
reviewed under the same bug as used for the HotSpot side.
Thanks,
David
