Hi,

I decided that this year is a good time to apply for GSoC. Because I never worked on anything JIT-related, this could be a chance to get started with it. There was some discussion about possible improvements for the ARM backend. Also, some newer ARM processors support a 64-bit execution mode called AArch64. I think it makes sense to implement a JIT backend for AArch64 sooner or later. There are just a few affordable AArch64 development boards available at the moment, but I was able to cross-compile a non-jitted version of PyPy and run it in QEMU.

Do you think that implementing an AArch64 JIT backend is a good GSoC project? If not, can you think of other JIT-related projects that fit better in the scope of GSoC?
