[valgrind] [Bug 398883] valgrind incorrectly assumes ABI on PowerPC based on endianness
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=398883 --- Comment #7 from Brandon Bergren --- Ahh, I think we were using different meanings for the word "supported". I was speaking in terms of "what can the hardware do, is specified in the ABI, and is currently in use in the wild", not "what you can actually get official support for". -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
[valgrind] [Bug 398883] valgrind incorrectly assumes ABI on PowerPC based on endianness
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=398883 Brandon Bergren changed: What|Removed |Added CC||k...@bdragon.rtk0.net --- Comment #6 from Brandon Bergren --- While I agree that using ELFv1 on LE is a completely unsupported configuration and need not be supported, the OpenPOWER ELF V2 ABI is fully defined and intended for use in both little- and big-endian environments. Due to the improved toolchain support (specifically, lld's dropping of ELFv1 support entirely, and ELFv2 being a lot less "weird" of an ABI meaning it tends to have less esoteric issues and can more easily leverage mainstream optimizations) I see the future of BE on POWER to be ELFv2 as well. And yes, FreeBSD is moving towards ELFv2 at a rapid pace. (I personally am running ELFv2 userlands exclusively in FreeBSD on my POWER9 machines.) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
