As far as I know, it does need to know arch specific things. It needs to know about the different relocation types which depend on the arch. It seems to have those files in the src/ dir: -rw-r--r-- 1 kurt kurt 13514 Mar 10 18:53 arch-alpha.c -rw-r--r-- 1 kurt kurt 22973 Mar 10 18:53 arch-arm.c -rw-r--r-- 1 kurt kurt 10669 Mar 10 18:54 arch-cris.c -rw-r--r-- 1 kurt kurt 28465 Mar 10 18:54 arch-i386.c -rw-r--r-- 1 kurt kurt 13604 Mar 10 18:54 arch-ia64.c -rw-r--r-- 1 kurt kurt 31290 Mar 10 18:54 arch-mips.c -rw-r--r-- 1 kurt kurt 30357 Mar 10 18:56 arch-ppc.c -rw-r--r-- 1 kurt kurt 23600 Mar 10 18:55 arch-ppc64.c -rw-r--r-- 1 kurt kurt 13578 Mar 10 18:56 arch-s390.c -rw-r--r-- 1 kurt kurt 16388 Mar 10 18:56 arch-s390x.c -rw-r--r-- 1 kurt kurt 11531 Mar 10 18:56 arch-sh.c -rw-r--r-- 1 kurt kurt 17928 Mar 10 18:57 arch-sparc.c -rw-r--r-- 1 kurt kurt 24368 Mar 10 18:56 arch-sparc64.c -rw-r--r-- 1 kurt kurt 14460 Mar 10 18:57 arch-x86_64.c But I don't know if all those arches have been tested and work properly. It's also missing support for hppa. The source also contains: Architecture: alpha amd64 i386 powerpc ppc64 So you would atleast need to change that first. There is atleast an open bug for mips/mipsel (#497328) for it. Kurt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
