Sorry, but that is not going to work. From your earlier screenshot I am guessing that you previously used node 10, with v8 3.14 from our old github repo.
The good news is that the MIPS big-endian support is all upstream in v8 repo since 3.26, which of course includes the 3.28 version in node 12. The not-so-good news is that after 3.17, v8 does not support soft-float builds, for either ARM or MIPS. However, if you build v8 with FP instructions, it will work fine using the kernel FP emulator that is in any more-or-less recent kernel. I am running big-endian boards here with 3.4.27 kernel. It's slow on FP-intensive work, like some benchmarks, but overall it works very well for most apps. You can build for FP by using the GYP defaults, or setting them explicitly like this: export GYPFLAGS="-Dv8_use_mips_abi_hardfloat=true -Dv8_can_use_fpu_instructions=true" You should try a build without snapshots, and big-endian does not currently support i18n: make mips.release -j12 snapshot=off i18nsupport=off If you want to use snapshots, you can either build on your native mips board, or use qemu as a helper to cross-compile the snapshot image: https://github.com/paul99/v8m-rb/wiki/Building-v8-for-BE-with-QEMU <https://github.com/paul99/v8m-rb/wiki/Building-v8-for-BE-with-QEMU> Hope this helps... > On Feb 10, 2015, at 2:44 PM, Arturo Rinaldi <arty.n...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Luckily, it is just a typo in my mail.
