Created attachment 619876 Use YARR interpreter instead of PCRE on platforms where YARR JIT is not supported
Fwiw here's the (simpler) patch i'm working on (no, i didn't gave up..) : - it doesnt touch the ENABLE_ASSEMBLER hell -> shouldnt affect tier1 archs - it uses the dummy empty cacheFlush implem for PPC in ExecutableAllocator.h - adds ExecutableAllocator.cpp/ExecutableAllocatorPosix.cpp to CPPSRCS in !YARR_JIT case (i didnt do the ifdef WIN/OS2 dance, as i doubt win/os2 might fall in the !YARR_JIT case someday.. prove me wrong :) - inconditionally includes ExecutableAllocator.h in wtfbridge.h so that the definition of ExecutableAllocator class is available everywhere It currently builds a working shell on ppc (regress tests passes except testConservativeGC but that seems related to #750620), i've yet to confirm it produces a working firefox. I'll also see if it fixes the build on sparc64, and then i'll send it to try to see if it breaks anything else. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/908508 Title: Firefox/Thunderbird 10 FTBFS on powerpc in js/src/yarr/pcre Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser: In Progress Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Debian has the fix, so I'll add it to the branch and it should work with the next upload.
