AFAIK there are still 2 different 64-bit ARM builds possible depending
on which port is used: one native (Aarch64) and the other
cross-compilation (ARM64).
Sure, but either should be possible to build natively or using
cross-compilation.
In theory yes - in practice I don't know if anyone has tried it. How
would you do a native build using the ARM64 sources rather than the
aarch64 sources?
My point was more that this is still not really clear. You now have a
section that indicates you can do a native build on Aarch64, but then
within the Cross-compilation section you have "Building for ARM/aarch64"
which suggests to me that 64-bit is only done using cross-compilation.
And the two different ports are only mentioned within that
cross-compilation section.
Cheers,
David
