FWIW you two (Philipp and Aurelien) are the two current s390x porters, so I think it's mostly your call. Cheers, Emilio

What's the venue to have this discussion in? :) Kind regards and thanks Philipp Kern

After a quick check, it appears that It uses he load/store on condition 1 facility directly, ie not in GCC generated code. The change is therefore intentional.

Bumping the baseline to z196 looks like the easiest way and as you said, it would also fix go, rustc and maybe more software. However we discussed raising the ISA to z10 about one year and a half ago, and the conclusion was that we still have users with older machines. I'll try to restart the discussion again.

All the other buildds are already z13 (either 2964-NE1 or 2964-N63). Bastian -- The idea of male and female are universal constants. -- Kirk, "Metamorphosis", stardate 3219.8

Still fails: https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=node-srs=sid Our baseline is z10, and z196 is newer. So if upstream now requires z196, we have three options: - Revert / fix that so upstream works with z10 again - Remove nodejs from s390x - Bump our baseline See go and rustc for similar problems.
