Hi, I'd like to submit this webrev which adds support for the SA agent on Linux/PPC64 on behalf of Maynard Johnson who is the main author of the change:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~simonis/webrevs/8049716 https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8049716 I have already reviewed and tested the change and from my side everything looks fine. The change touches quite some shared code but all of these changes are trivial and straight-forward (i.e. they just add Linux/PPC64 support with the help of '#ifdef's in C or yet another 'elseif' clause in Java). We need a second reviewer and a sponsor who can push this to the hotspot repository once the review is completed. Thank you and best regards, Volker
