Hello Otto,
I wanted to update you on the current progress for the MariaDB port for
PARISC.
As we discussed earlier, I started by disabling all java related components
for the MariaDB server. This work was done on top of the latest
MariaDB-server repository from GitLab, rather than the version currently
available in the package manager.
*Summary: *At this stage the build completes successfully on PARISC, and
most tests pass. The remaining failures appear to be platform specific test
mismatches, primarily related to error code differences, assumptions around
SSL and huge pages.
*Summary of changes I made so far:*

I will move forward with addressing the remaining test case issues and then
prepare a commit for submission to MariaDB Server on GitLab.
Please let me know your opinion on this approach, if you would like me to
proceed differently or focus on any specific area.
Thank you,
