[ccing build-dev] Yes, as I said here: http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/hotspot-dev/2015-February/017175.html there are JDK changes but what I had to begin with was for 7 as that's where the bug was reported. While the HotSpot changes are pretty much the same on 7, 8 and 9, doing the JDK side has basically been a complete re-write, especially as, unlike 7, 8 has very little recognition of ppc64le. I now have these changes working on 8u31: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~andrew/rh1191652/root http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~andrew/rh1191652/jdk I can re-base these onto whichever OpenJDK 9 tree is appropriate and push when reviewed under the same bug as used for the HotSpot side. > Thanks, > David > -- Andrew :) Free Java Software Engineer Red Hat, Inc.
